Molly and Chris were married April 2nd in Dallas! Right after their honeymoon in St. Lucia, we took these photos before they moved back to California! Texas misses your gorgeous smile Molly, but I wish you two all the best in your new lives together. Much love to you both! xx

Molly and Chris had a magical wedding in Dallas and pics will be coming soon!

Hello Handsome!

After dinner with our new Toronto friends we decided to go see the famous CN Tower. We were literally running—racing to get to the top of the tower to catch the sunset and get some sweet photos of Toronto at dusk. While running to the tower (that was 3 miles away), we saw this little nook and stopped for this photo. We took 20 seconds to take a few photos and we were off. This will forever be one of my favorite photos of my love. I’ll race the shadows any day with him.

About the title: “Same, Same but Different” was a saying that Matt and I would hear when we were walking the streets of Hong Kong a few years ago and it’s been an inside joke ever since. Canada felt so much like the States in so many ways with subtle differences.

Matt and I went to Toronto, Canada last week for a little much needed vacation. Since Matt just finished his 4th year of grad school and this Spring was a busy time for LLP we thought that it would be a nice break before Matt’s Summer speaking schedule and my shoot schedule begins. And oohhhh it was! The first question one person must ask themselves when they get to Toronto is “why wouldn’t I buy a hot dog from a 24 hour/day hot dog stand?” Seeing many logical reasons why we shouldn’t, we denied all logic and indulged in the awesomeness. I hope this makes you hungry!

I will be posting Toronto blog posts all week. This Toronto blog series will be a little insight into our treks. Please check throughout the week and then plan your vacation to Toronto, because it’s awesome and Canadians are too.

So here’s to Toronto, where vacations and diversity happen:

This is just before this lovely lady told me that I needed to pay for this photo of her. I did and it was worth it.

Bacon bits: for the times when you don’t have enough pork on your hot dogs.

Yum.

It has been so cool to see the publication at various places around town and posters of our work hanging on different billboards and signs. This was a really great project and  H O L T  D E S I G N,  I N C. did a great job of laying out the work. To all who worked so hard on this project: Catherine Cochran, Stacie Adams, Laura Korenman, Christine Pev, Erin, Holt Design, Jaap and all the symphony members, and the wonderful sound and lighting technicians who made this project possible, thank you for the privilege to serve alongside you guys! What an accomplishment.
