A bit about me....

After getting engaged on January 12th, 2004, I married Ayala on June 1st, 2004, portraits [here], pictures [here], video [here]. Ayala gave birth to our son, Natan Kalman Yaakov on the 4th October 2006 [brit], [pidyon haben]. You can see his latest pictures in the photoalbums.

I grew up in Leeds, England and made Aliya in 1992 shortly after finishing my degree. Have been living in Jerusalem ever since. Helped form the Late Late Minyan and was very active in the Jewish Anglo community in Katamon, Jerusalem. Recently (coinciding with Natan’s birth) we moved to Givat C in Modiin where we bought an apartment

I took up Tora Dojo a form of Karate based on Shotokan until black belt whereupon it turns to Kung Fu. Of course only being a purple belt I need not worry about such things for a decade or so! You can visit their website on www.toradojo.co.il

Of course when I choose not to be so active, I also take great pleasure in photography. This is also a recent hobby of mine since I bought myself a nice digital camera and have great fun, particularly at weddings trying to get mug shots of people that I can blackmail them later with <grin>. More recently After seeing what horrible pictures people post of themselves on dating sites, I decided a new side venture: www.tzilum.com. Check it out! Since of course there aren’t that many singles in Modiin, I am looking into family portraiture. More to follow...

Professionally, well you can click on my CV above if you want to know all the gory details, but suffice to say that I am very happy at my new role running my typesetting company, Jerusalem Typesetting.
