Photography by Yoni, New York

Yoni Zion Levy's fated history with photography began at age 7, when he held his first camera. This camera radiated a passion that burrowed itself deep within him and grew with each passing year. Fueled by this love of shutters, Yoni eventually graduated from Camera Obscura in Paris, became a photographer for a European newspaper, and attended the School of Visual Arts in New York, where he worked as a fashion photographer.

Now, Yoni snaps everything from portraits to luxe glamour shots, creating stylish, sophisticated prints. His adaptable lens captures the celebratory moments of bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs, parties, and weddings. During events, he and his photographers try to let everyone enjoy the day, remaining as delightful and unobtrusive as Lord Licorice’s surveillance bureau in Candy Land.
