BRUTAL PERSPECTIVE

With all that is happening in our earth and World, it seems wrong to be having a happy day sometimes, I struggle with it, yet I know it is the very thing that humanity needs, me over here just making pictures I am not really sure what I am doing to help really, maybe it will make a few of your smile

I pray with the angels for abundance, safety, love, food and health for all those little children lost to war and their families hearts ripped into millions of pieces, the souls lost to the past 3 years of incredible stress, growth and transformation, I think of my late Dad and what he showed me, taught me, and trust the power of us all together in this cycle of life may shine through in this our peaceful place I am so very grateful to wander

ASTROAPP updated info
Good morning, it's so exciting how many of you enrolled so I have closed off the pre-launch list! Thank you to all of you that have joined to date, I can't wait to open the doors. You will be receiving a members email in the next few days about how to access the free modules and my new 7 Stars Program that will launch at the same time as the app and what's next. If you know anything about apps, they take a wee while to get approved so it will take between 2-4 weeks to make sure we are 100% ready to allow you all access, thanks for your patience!

If you are keen on being in the second stream group to get on when we go live in the playstore and appstore at $1.99NZ. Get on the waitlist for pre-notification below in comments (note to wait for your emailed unique code to get the $1.99NZ pricing)
Price increase after we go live $9.99USD

If you are a tourism or accommodation business you will be able to access the app for your customers this program will roll out after the initial first and second stream clients have accessed their logins, please email me if this is of interest to your business - [email protected]

I am grateful to connect with you all on this exciting lifetime project, kind regards Rachel

Yesterday.
This is brutal, raw, constantly changing, evolved daily into the new landscape, nothing ever says the same.
Much like the human experience we choose who we become under this level of pressure. I have just spent a week with a great friend and two client jobs in the Mackenzie and went to see my friends at the airport, we went for a fly
I find these men to be some of the most real, talented, skilled beyond, dedicated to others you will find on this earth. Not just any pilot can fly in the alps and land on the glacier it takes hard skill, confidence and heart
Feeling invigorated to uplevel team! Who else?

When I first got into guided photography I headed to the coolest parts of the South Island. I have been blessed to adventure in some pretty epic spaces and places! This beautiful land we share is precious, thanks to all my mates that share the miles with me, truly grateful for you all over the years. Images of me on this trip of me were taken by Jordan McInally and Jessica Ward
Looking back over this mint adventure on the Tasman Glacier, that pink jacket did the miles I wore it out Kathmandu

SOUTH ISLAND TOUR - TRIP OF A LIFETIME
Get on the bus with Rachel Gillespie Photography for 10 days

Hey guys so I understand finances and balancing living costs is a lot for many right now, so I have decided to go crazy and list up the remaining spots on this tour at a deposit plus monthly payment over 12 months, and at the early bird price, it would be a shame to see them empty
If you would love to change your photography game, call me for a chat, it will be limited to first deposits paid gets the seats

Such a wonderful start to the day!
Good luck to all the hunters out there this evening
