Coming Up For Air

    Bridget Shevlin, United States

These portraits are from a long-term series where I'm documenting my youngest brother as a child. We are 16 years apart so I've been able to watch him grow up. It's always a sweet reminder to gain a new perspective on life. These portraits were taken during the summer 2020 lockdown. I was lucky enough to quarantine and then stay with my family for a month. My parents have a house on Lake Champlain in upstate NY. These images are just a few that were taken over the course of the month when we'd do different activities together; boating, swimming, fishing, kayaking, and many others.
