[ Olivia & Father ]

This is my niece, Olivia, with her father aka my brother-in-law Mike. This was taken at the lovely Waimea Bay in Oahu, Hawaii.

Someone asked me recently if I had a favorite photograph of mine. I told him I always have a favorite from every shoot, which is entirely true, and this one has to be one of my favorites from Hawaii. I think it's because of the composition, the sweetness of Olivia in her fathers arms, something about the beach, something about the tattoos ....

I simply adore this photograph.
