It was back to work today for what is going to be a busy week nd a great busy season. I feel like I have known Alle since before she was born, her mom was a coworker and great friend while she was pregnant with her, and I’ve been photographing her since she was only a few years old. She and her sister Gabby were among my first subjects when I started getting back into photography regularly. We did family sessions, holiday shoots—little moments over the years.

Today, it was her senior pictures at one of her favorite spots. I don’t typically do beach sessions, but now and then I make exceptions—especially when it means reconnecting with old friends. I hope she has a great senior year, and I can’t wait to see where her story goes next.
