rock ‘n let it roll

I sometimes feel a little bit like Sisyphus – not that I push a rock to the top to find it later on at the bottom again. It’s more that my project is somehow the rock and I have to push it to the steep hill. Once there, it will roll down on its own, but at the moment, I still keep on pushing…

and we never gonna survive unless we are a little crazy

You wouldn’t guess where I just returned from! I know it not only sounds crazy, it actually is, but I’ve been to Capetown for two days! This sounds as exceptional as it is. It was a very, very spontaneous idea – my photographer friend was there and we were chatting over facebook and he told me that he might have time and might get a team together, so I just waited for his ok to book a flight and leave the rain behind me to see the beautiful landscape of this marvelous city.

We had two shoots: one in the evening on the balcony and the other in the early morning on a beautiful sand dune in the middle of nowhere. Therefore, we had to get up at 5am to catch some nice light. I’m really looking forward to receive the pics soon – they’re gonna be awesome!

Although I did not sleep too much and I had to travel a lot (Capetown is about 14 hours flight away), it was the most beautiful weekend I ever spent in my whole life! I’ll never ever experience something like that again and I feel very blessed and honored that I had the chance to work with such a professional team! It was just crazy! Crazy f**ing cool! Thank you.
