LBI Dockside Portrait Session

I grew up photographing this beauty. I have albums filled with photos of her as a baby, toddler, adolescent and now a high school sophomore?! How? Whenever I scroll through photos of Arianna, I am reminded how important family photos are. I love to see portraits of her through all of the stages of life.

This quick dockside session was totally spontaneous. Arianna had just come off the beach and had salty hair and red cheeks. She was just too cute to resist so I grabbed my camera and we played.

It feels like just yesterday she had to wear a life jacket whenever she was on this dock and now she’s full glam on the top of my Dad’s boat, giggling and humoring me.

I just love her.
