Meet Shmuel
Before a photographer, I'm a dad of 9 (bli ayin h'ara)... And I couldn't do it if I wasn't!
The photography is only half the story. Understanding children and families are the other half!
I learned how to be a photographer under the intense pressure of Jewish weddings, and I am still learning how to be a dad, and loving every minute of it.
Only a parent can understand this, but the more children you have, the more you love them! You would think the opposite considering what they can get up to, but it's not true.
Children and families inspire me and I want to channel that inspiration into creating stunning images of you and your family that will last forever, that you can kvell over again and again and again.
Mazel tov again and blessings from Jerusalem,
Shmuel :)

Location
Our #1 spot and the location we are famous for is the grassy area just outside the Jaffa Gate. In our opinion, it's simply the best location in the WORLD, and maybe even the universe 😉
It has every benefit:
-
It's just stunning! You have epic walls of the Old City on one side and lush forest on the other. There is green grass, olive trees, cobbled paths, ancient ruins etc.
-
The light is great throughout the day.
-
It's quiet. There is hardly ever anyone there.
-
You can park nearby in the Mamilla car park.
-
It's very central to everywhere.
