Blizzard Mitzvah

From January 22–24, 2016, a major blizzard hit the New York metro area dropping up to 3 ft of snow. The blizzard was described as a "kind of a top-10 snowstorm" by weather expert Paul Kocin.

What did LJ Studios do during this blizzard? We photographed a b'not mitzvah, of course.

The b'not mitzvah girls making the most of their big day

When James arrived at Larchmont Temple on Saturday morning, he wasn't sure if the event was going to be cancelled due to the weather. Shortly thereafter, James spoke with the girls' mother, Jodi, and she informed him that the temple service would proceed as planned, but that the reception would be rescheduled to Sunday. The girls took it all in stride, and happily agreed to step outside the temple to commemorate the occasion with a snow portrait (photo above). Surprisingly, it seemed like almost all of the invited guests made it safely to the temple. Mazel tov!

Beckwith Pointe (http://beckwithpointe.com/) was very accommodating, and agreed to reschedule the party to Sunday. So James ended up working Saturday and Sunday, but with clients this warm and friendly, he was more than happy to be part of this success story!

Mazel Tov to the girls!
