PHOTOS: Rand Paul in Arizona - Physicians mtg, breakfast, leadership mtg, GOP & Goldwater Inst

This past Friday, I was lucky enough to be able to follow the Rand Paul campaign during his visit here in Arizona. Special thanks to those who made it possible for me to do so, and to be able to provide photos from each of Rand Paul's events while he was visiting. I was able to attend all of his events, including the physicians roundtable, breakfast fundraiser, grassroots leadership meeting, AZ GOP fundraiser and Goldwater Institute dinner. As such, I was able to get lots of photos to share, and you can find MANY more here (the first five sets in the first row).

It was great to see lots of familiar faces, and great to see such diverse support for Rand Paul in Arizona during his first trip to the state. I'd again like to thank a couple members of Rand Paul's staff for the opportunity they gave me to photograph Rand this past Friday, it was a great pleasure. As stated, I obviously have many more photos from the events, you can find the link to each below. Please feel free to leave any comments below as well.

I also just recently bought a new camera that is capable of shooting HD video. In order to test it out, I did shoot two very quick clips during Rand's breakfast speech and Rand's Goldwater dinner speech. Again, this was just to test the quality of the camera, and nothing else. Thought it would be interesting to share though.

Thanks, VoluntaryAmerican! Now that I think about it, that photo reminds me of the "One does not simply..." meme.

Here is the link to an interview Rand also did with our local NBC affiliate: http://www.azcentral.com/video/3038781060001

Oh cool, hope you enjoyed the event! Sorry for the camera flashes. Horrible lighting at that event.

Awesome, awesome photos Gage. You seem to be getting access that main stream photogs don't get. COOL!

I love that first one - great angle and perspective. The third from the bottom ain't bad, either. heh

I hope your making some money with these. You deserve it!

If Rand makes it to the Big House I bet biographers will be knocking down your door.

while WaPo spins 2016 tales, Rand is hard at work. This is great to see, especially with such awesome pics. Gage Skidmore, we knew him when.

Gage,

Great shots and special thanks for sharing with all. You have a wonderful gift and a great way of presenting the shots as well. I know doors will keep opening for you and lots of fun times ahead.

Blessings,
