Mountain Pearl

When Homeless Apians and Bone and Marrow agreed to travel and play together this summer, our first trip was to Asheville, North Carolina.  On our return trip home, we discussed the possibility of playing and recording in unusual environments with equipment charged and powered by the sun. With only a few hours left of the drive, we took an exit off a highway in Virginia to find the perfect cave for what we wanted to do.  "Mountain Pearl"was documented in Endless Caverns, and I'm so glad we have some video evidence of the experience! We were appreciative that they were open to the idea.  The Hapi drums were vital to the captivating quality of the song, and a cave setting was all too fitting for the drums.





If you are a musician or perform in a band who would like to record a song in an outdoor environment, contact Sun Lab Studio or check out their site for more details.    

Some Wedding Pictures PART 1: Film

I haven't posted any wedding pics on my blog.. Sorry! Back in early June, Daimon and I tied the knot in Shenadoah Caverns, Virginia.  Two couples went with us:  our Minister, his girlfriend and our friend, and our two photographers who own The Photo Center in Brick, NJ (I featured the Photo Center as the small business of March here).

This is part 1 of 3 I'll be posting:  shots from the cave ceremony, pre-ceremony pictures at the covered bridge, and shots with the 35 mm. While some couples adhere to the not-seeing-each-other custom before the wedding, we wanted to take formal pre-ceremony pictures and see each other in a more unique way. Some of our best shots are from that shoot at a covered bridge. Keep an eye out for the next set of pics!

Oh ya.. I guess I should throw in a picture of Daimon since it was his wedding too. Hehe

More pictures to come!

Wedding Polaroids!

The last of my original polaroid film has been used for this important and memorable moment in our lives.  The last polaroid taken was of the dinosaur with our minister and only bridesmaid haha! Enjoy!

Tess and me in a field right in Shenandoah Valley.

A sneak peak as to where our ceremony took place...

This one's a little scary; Daimon wore my veil and our minister held a bouquet of flowers.

What a moment! Thanks to Tess for taking this one. Daimon immediately started crying when he saw me for the first time.  We waited a long time for that moment to come.

There's more from where that came from! I have 3 rolls of film and lots of digital pictures.  However.. there's nothing like a polaroid picture to capture that moment in time.
