Brooklyn Kid's Portrait Session: A "Life Aquatic" Adventure


Wes Anderson's film "The Life Aquatic" is renowned for its whimsical and visually stunning aesthetic. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a young boy in a "Life Aquatic" inspired photo session in DUMBO, Brooklyn. It was a unique and memorable experience that I'm excited to share with you.


DUMBO, a vibrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, is known for its breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline and the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. We chose this location to capture the "Life Aquatic" aesthetic while incorporating the stunning cityscape of New York.


The young boy was dressed in a blue jumpsuit and a red beanie, just like the characters from the film. His excitement was contagious, and he embraced the theme with enthusiasm. As we began shooting, he explored the area, interacting with the props and posing for the camera, bringing the "Life Aquatic" theme to life against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge.


Throughout the session, we maintained the film's color palette and quirky details. The young boy was a natural in front of the camera, and his energy brought the photos to life.


This "Life Aquatic" inspired photo session is a fantastic way to capture your child's personality and imagination. Combining the whimsical aesthetic of the film with the stunning views of New York City creates a truly memorable photo shoot. If you're looking for a playful and visually stunning way to capture your child's unique spirit, a "Life Aquatic" inspired shoot in DUMBO is an excellent choice. It offers a creative and memorable way to preserve their personality and imagination.
