Layla's Bat Mitzvah lacked the crazy hustle and bustle that is normally seen before & during an event like a Bat Mitzvah. It was replaced by the wonderful sounds of crashing waves, ocean air and laughter from family.
Layla's celebration took place on the impeccable Fire Island. The 31 mile island is located parallel to Long Island overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The narrow yet chic island has several resort villages which are a sought after vacation destination for over 800,000 visitors a summer.
We had the honor of joining and documenting Allison & Joel for their wedding celebration. After getting married out west, Allison and Joel decided to have an east coast celebration with friends and family at The Village Club at Sands Point which faces the Hempstead Harbor. This gorgeous 210-acre venue is steeped in art and design history. The estate was once owned by generations of the Guggenheim family, including Solomon Guggenheim, the legendary businessman, art collector, and philanthropist.
