Alright. David Berkeley - another rocking awesome song. This is the best version of it I could find. I do prefer the studio version on his album (available on iTunes) but this rocks too.
Click play, and enjoy.

Check out this moody soulful tune from Greg Laswell. A fantastic artist, yet to reach “radio fame”. The song, High and Low is available on iTunes if you decide you love it as much as I do.

Whenever I write my name out, it’s always Timothy Uhl (pronounced Yule for those who don’t know). I always use the full name when I reference myself. Business cards, e-mail signatures, all of that stuff. I do this for two reasons. First, the shorter name, blurs together with the last name into an unpleasant sounding “timule” or, people just hear it as Jim. I’ve spent more evenings than I’d like to mention being called Jim because I was too big of a wuss to just say, “Oh, actually my name is Tim.” Secondly, I always thought it sounded more formal and professional to introduce myself using my full name.
For those of you that know me personally, I’m just not formal. I’m very casual, laid back and I love a good laugh. You all know me as Tim and call me that, probably because Timothy just doesn’t fit who I really am. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
So, I’ve decided to change my business cards, e-mail sig, Facebook icon and all of it. Why? This is me, just being who I really am.
So, what can you do, to be who you really are? Whatever it is, don’t be afraid to let it show in front of our cameras. It makes for some of the very best pictures.

Danielle is our official winner! The song is titled, “Arrested By You” by Rupert Hine, from the Better Off Dead soundtrack. Danielle has won a free copy of the movie, plus an extra gift!
Incase anyone is wondering, the lines “Arrested By You” and “Captured By You” are what Heidi and I have engraved on our wedding bands.
Danielle, we have a brand new copy of the movie on DVD waiting for you when you come in for your next appointment! See you soon!

Okay, give this song a listen, by clicking right here. This is our favorite song which happens to be on our favorite movie.
This song is very special to Heidi and I. We listened to it all the time while we were dating. I had a line from it engraved onto Heidi’s wedding band. Heidi then had another line from it engraved on mine. We put it on when we want to remember when we first fell in love. We were a couple of college kids taking photo classes, Heidi sat in front. It was meant to be.

While we were out shooting Racheal and Tylers engagement photos I found out that they LOVE Coldstone ice cream. As soon as we finished up downtown we headed to the nearest Coldstone so we could do some photos of them doing their thing… Who could say no to ice cream?
