My niece Kayla is going into her senior year of high school which means… senior photos! We were down at Rehoboth Beach for her 17th summer and my 40th. I’ve been photographing her down in this sand- this exact same sand- since she was 1.
As the fun aunt, I have tried to fill our family vacations with magic. Over the years, I staged elaborate pirate treasure chest hunts and declared it mermaid day with custom shell crowns and sparkles. I documented it all along the way.
As you dive into these photos, I want you to see her as I do. To me, she is mermaids, treasure chests, rainbows, bubbles and butterfly kites. She is lollipops and dune grass, sandcastles and sunsets. She is magic.
