My trip to Seattle {Travel}

Monday, September 6, 2010 2:39 pm

I know I should have posted these sooner, but I always say better late than never, right? Here are some photos of me and the Cabanillas family, Phablo, Adele & Abigail Reese taking a day trip to Seattle. It was exactly what you would expect of Seattle…rainy and cold! But I suppose that adds to the experience, remembering Seattle as a sunny place would not quite give me the satisfaction of being in a place where it rains 6 months in a year. We went to the Farmers market and just walked around. It was pretty darn cold and very wet all over but a great outing. The photos of me were taken by the talented Adele from AbigailReese Photography (yes her business is named after her daughter (and my favourite girl in the world))!

And to make this post a little more special, Adele will be landing at O.R. Tambo tonight. Adele, WELCOME HOME! I know you are only staying a little while but we are so glad to have you back in SA!

Abigail {Travel & Fun}

Thursday, July 29, 2010 1:22 pm

When I was in Seattle with Adele, we went for a day trip just driving around and singing in the car. We went to Olympia and drove around till we saw a beautiful Cherry Blossom tree (ok we were actually looking at historical buildings, but the Cherry Blossom tree was WAAAAYYYY prettier). We took Abigail and went for a walk, of course I had my camera there ;) Here is a couple of the shots we got. Abigail is my favourite little girl in the whole world! I love you Abigail :) and I know she also loves me because the day I arrived in Seattle she said: “I love you Rinska!” (I LOVE HOW SHE PRONOUNCES MY NAME) it was, in fact, the first time she said I love you to anyone, that same day she told her mommy that she loved her too :D Her mommy was so proud!

Adele & I

Wednesday, July 28, 2010 4:37 pm

This post is definitely long over due, these were shot at the end of January this year…yup, I’m behind on my personal posts. If you don’t know who Adele is, here is the story; We met our first year at Stellenbosch University, 2001 and became good friends. Adele is also a photographer, visit her blog here. At the moment she lives in Seattle, USA. Her husband is in the US Army so they move a lot, every year since 2008 I go visit them in the Sates, here are some photos that I took of their little family in 2008, Abigail is my favourite ;)

In January Adele came to visit me in Johnnesburg, when we decided to do a little spur-of-the-moment-shoot, it turned out to be, not only a lot of fun but it was ridiculously hilarious. Our abs were so sore at the end of our shoot, we found ourselves to be a little confused and did not know what to do, I’m sure a lot of photographers experience this, we are so used to being behind the lens that once in front of it, we go blank, we forget what to do. Adele and I just decided to be silly, laugh it off and act like kids – which is in fact what I love to do with my clients, once you have a little fun, you forget about the camera and just enjoy the moments you’re in. I hope I can always be a little silly behind and in front of my lens.
