Have I told you how much I love Photographing teens? Well I do, I love, love, love it and young ladies like Julia are the reason why. I first got to know Julia when I was hired to photographer her sister Vicki’s (another beautiful and talented young woman) Bat Mitzvah, about two and half years ago. Since that time ,I have watched Julia blossom right before my eyes.
For Julia’s pre Bat Mitzvah Teen Session I met Julia and her family at Rocket Fizz Candy Store on Park Avenue in Winter Park, very cool place by the way. Candy was Julia’s theme for her Bar Mitzvah, so we had a blast taking pictures of Julia with different kinds of candy. Then it was off to Rollins College for some more pics. Now this was very hot day in May, and not a peep out of Julia. She did not complain one bit instead, she sparkled for the camera.
Fast forward to Julia’s Bat Mitzvah in October. The morning of the big day I arrived for family pictures before the service and there was Julia as calm and collected as could be. She told me she was nervous but you would never be able to tell. Julia did a great job, and was the picture of grace under pressure.
I have watched Julia grow from a shy girl into an organized, self confident, and graceful young lady. Julia is one of the few teen girls that is comfortable in her own skin, and I can’t wait to see her continueto thrive and come in to her own with the love and support of her family and friends.
