Book Description

June 1, 2009

A guide to the culture and traditions of Judaic ceremonies and receptions, this study offers photographers insight and advice for targeting and capturing Jewish weddings. Time lines and schedules are discussed with examples of start-to-finish wedding-day festivities, and a list of the essential images for the different types of weddings—such as Orthodox, Hasidic, Modern, Reform, and Conservative—emphasize the key elements photographers are not to miss. A special “Marketing 101 for Jewish Weddings” section helps photographers reach these potentially lifelong clients and reveals how these weddings, which sometimes fall on weekdays, can boost sales.

About the Author

A first-generation American and the child of Holocaust survivors, Stan Turkel learned at a very young age the importance of having family photographs. At the age of thirteen, after being given an album of pictures from his Bar Mitzvah, he bought his first camera and started a lifelong hobby and profession. All of these experiences helped prepared him for his current love, which is photographing Jewish weddings and Bar/Bat Mitzvahs. He lives in Pikesville, Maryland.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complete handbook for jewish weddings, December 20, 2009
This review is from: Photographing Jewish Weddings: A Complete Handbook for Professionals (Paperback)
A definite must have for those anticipating photographing Jewish weddings. You can truly appreciate the amount of information covered. Variations in Jewish wedding ceremonies are broken down into easy to understand chapters. I found the frequently asked questions section particularly helpful. Top notch pictures help to reinforce the accompanying text.
