LIfestyle Portraits: A Day with Trina


Let your mind start a journey thru a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be…Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar, and you’ll live as you’ve never lived before.
Erich Fromm
8am, we met Trina at her favorite Starbucks branch… ordered a drink and chatted a bit. The day was nice and bright as we hoped it would be… she powdered her shiny nose, and then we went on with the shoot.  Trina is my almost-sister-cousin… I saw her grow right before my eyes.  It was a breeze working with her… it was just like having a day out and just chillin' with a friend.
She is an artist, a painter, a writer, loves everything anime, a net junkie, but what she is most passionate about is being a teacher… she’s the newest one from a family of teachers! Trina just had a new job and recently passed the entrance exams in the University of the Philippines for Grad School. She just turned 22 last September and she wanted to do this Lifestyle Portrait Session to remind her of this particular time in her life. I’d like to think that she is at the point where her dreams seems to be just right at her fingertips… and she is about to begin yet another adventure. Trina, I know you’ve had your share of tough times, but I believe that there’s nothing you can’t do if you put your heart into it like you always do. So, for you Trina, just keep rolling with the punches and here’s to an awesome journey!
