​    From the simplest and purest to the most elaborate and grand, Mike Jaro Photography brings a unique, cinematic approach to photographing Bar Mitzvahs and  Bat Mitzvahs. In each case, we capture the emotions of the Jewish passage into “adulthood” from the perspective of everyone present, from the children and their friends to the parents and grandparents.​

    We work closely with you and your planners to understand the larger vision and your unique sensibilities. Then we create a meticulous plan designed specifically for your mitzvah: from selecting the cameras and formats to choosing the best portrait, temple and candid shot set-ups.

    The day of the event, our handpicked team of Bar and Bat Mitzvah photographers capture all the pride, fun and memorable moments with a light-footed presence that puts everyone at ease. As pioneers of documentary-style event photography, we tell the story in images, through the eyes of both the children and the adults. It’s this ability to perfectly balance the fun and the significance of a mitzvah that has made us one of the most unique photographers for these special days.
