 Recently, I had the opportunity to photograph one of the highlights of my photographic career. I was hired to photograph a family of 5 generations! A young woman gave birth to her first child, here in Israel. Her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother were in Jerusalem with her to celebrate.
Five generations together celebrating this new child, and I had the opportunity to document this great event. And to complete the story, the great -great-grandmother of this new baby is a Holocaust survivor. It was so inspiring to be part of this family's affirmation of continued life, in the face of the destruction of the Holocaust
Each photograph I take inspires me to learn and understand the story behind what I see.
Each photograph helps me tell these stories.
What stories do you see in these pictures?

What's New?
It was a great privilege to have one of my photographs published in the new book "A Living Lens" – photographs of Jewish Life from the pages of The Forward, edited by Alana Newhouse. This beautiful compilation of photos, presented in black and white represents a documentation of Jewish History from 1897- until close to the present. This book is something special for every Jewish home.
