I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph the bris for little baby Samson. For those of you who have never experienced this ceremony here is an explanation:
“A bris is a religious ceremony held on the eighth day of life for male Jewish infants. During the ceremony, the infant is welcomed into the covenant made between the Children of Israel and God. The key event is the circumcision performed on the infant, although the ceremony also includes the announcement of the child’s Hebrew name and a ritual meal afterwards to conclude the ceremony.”
This was the first time I have ever been a part of a Jewish ceremony and it was a wonderful experience. The room was radiating with love for this family and little baby Samson. It was certainly one of my most favorite experiences as a photographer so far!
Thank you so much for having me! Next up baby Samson’s newborn pictures 🙂
