Jessica and Cyle | Lewis River Golf Course Wedding

It’s the height of summer wedding season and as much as I love all my wedding clients, I have to admit that I’ve been looking forward to Jessica and Cyle’s wedding. It all started with a killer engagement session and was kicked up a notch with a killer engagement album, so how could the wedding…

Amber and Michael | Jackson Hole Wedding Slideshow

A heartfelt thanks to Judd Grossman for graciously allowing me to use his song for my slideshow. His music was woven in the fabric of the day, so it’s only fitting that it become the…

Great slide show Randy! This wedding would make an incredible album…I love the image of the bride with her horse! :)

RandyAugust 24, 2007 - 12:05 pm

Thanks Sarah…I agree that this wedding would make a spectacular wedding album. We’ll see if Amber is up for it. Let me know if you need the password for the gallery, I’d love for you to get some ideas going for her album. :)

Amber and Michael | Jackson Hole Wyoming Wedding

When Johnny Cash and June Carter recorded their song, they had no idea that it would become a theme for Amber and Michael. “We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout, We’ve been talkin’ ’bout Jackson, ever since the fire went out. I’m goin’ to Jackson, I’m gonna mess around, Yeah, I’m…

Thanks Kristen! It was a wonderful wedding and would have been even better if you were there. But apparently you were out of the country? :)

My Favorite Music | iTunes Blog Widget

Long before I was a professional photographer, I was a musician. Hard to believe from looking at me now, but I used to rock out with the best of them. All through school I played flute and saxophone. The fingerings are nearly identical, so it was easy to transition from one to the other. For…

This is an interesting story Randy, do you still play any instruments? Check this out, it may bring back some memories:
Flute Hero

RandyAugust 14, 2007 - 10:45 am

Patrick,

Yes, I can still play the instruments I spent so much time with in the past. Of all the gear I used to have, I only have one guitar and it was the first guitar I owned as a kid. All the other instruments were sold to pay for my photography education.

I’m looking for a piano (will work for a trade) so I can teach my girls how to play. I’m also planning to pick up a nice acoustic guitar one of these days. The flute? My oldest daughter plays flute and I pick it up when she visits and everyone is always amazed that I can still play. It’s like riding a bike, eh?

The Flue Hero thing is in a foreign language. I can’t figure out what I’m supposed to do. Tried using the keyboard numbers, but it’s not doing anything on my Mac browser. Must be a PC thing! :)

Hey you!

I didn’t know this about you!!! Once again, your post is written so eloquently…I love reading your blog!

I miss you!
xoxo

Thanks Amber! There is a lot about me that people don’t know. I think that’s the great thing about being a storyteller. Everyone has their stories. When I think of my own life and the experiences I’ve had, it often makes me wonder what things others have seen and lived through.

Nice to see you here, hope you’re doing well!

Randy

JennieAugust 19, 2007 - 10:46 am

Wow! I had no idea you were a musician! Piano is my true passion (can you believe it’s not accounting?) and I always dreamed of being a famous concert pianist when I was younger. It’s awesome that you like TobyMac and Dashboard Confessional! Great stuff (TobyMac is incredible in concert, his show is amazing!)

I’m excited to see Reagan and Trevor’s wedding photos! I’m sure all of the pictures turned out great.

See ya,

Jennie

Check out “Such Great Heights” by the Postal Service (it’s from the singer of Death Cab for Cutie)

RandyAugust 20, 2007 - 8:46 am

TobyMac is amazing. A lot of people dismiss Inspirational music, but his music crosses a lot of boundaries. My youngest daughter, who is an amazing dancer, is doing a hip-hop routine to one of his songs and it’s nice to know that you won’t have to “bleep” out half the song because of language. I kept looking at his web site to see if he was coming close to Portland. Most of his concerts are back East. He did come by a month or so ago, but I was working! :)

I had no idea that Postal Service featured the singer from Death Cab for Cutie. I actually have that song from the Garden State Soundtrack. Not everything in my library shows up on that widget, just the stuff I’ve been able to purchase from iTunes. Three fourths of my library is from CD’s I’ve ripped into M4P files.

Great seeing you guys at Reagan and Trevor’s wedding. Those photos did turn out great and they will be coming to the blog soon. First there are a couple of others that are anxious to see their weddings. I’m working as fast and as hard as I can without compromising my artistic integrity! :)

Come back soon!
