This was one of the busiest days for us! In the morning, Tesh did a watercolor painting as part of the Local Color Raleigh Gallery’s annual paint out competition. Tesh had less than two hours to finish the painting- he will be writing more about that on his blog: teshparekh.wordpress.com Starting at noon, we photographed Banjamin’s Bar Mitzvah party- what a great party it was! And in the evening, we photographed an adorable toddler at the Arboretum. We will be posting those photos on our blog as well.

Benjamin’s party was at the Bogart’s in Raleigh. Many friends and family of the Levine family has travelled from out of the state. This made the party very special for Benjamin! The party started with the kid’s games, while the adults enjoyed cocktail and appetizers. Tesh captured many fun photos of the kids playing the games! This was followed by the blessing of wine and bread. As always, we loved photographing the food! Benjamin gave very special speech as part of the candle lighting ceremony. Everyone danced away to the DJ’s music and we loved capturing all of that for the Levine family to remember and enjoy forever!
