MEMORY
PICTURES

As my family explored the beach, she began to take more pictures, casually including me in shots of her friends, then focusing on me almost entirely.

It felt strange to be recorded for no apparent reason. The pictures my parents took were always justified and carefully arranged. She was relaxed with the camera, following me wherever I went. I was aware of it immediately and tried to act casual.

I looked into the camera, then quickly looked away, playing with her. She was probably bored of taking pictures of her friends so I became a more challening target. I climbed up the slope.
