these girls, one year later

We visited Juli & John's cottage a few weekends ago and we were marveling at how different the girls were last summer at the cottage. They were little beings that did not do much but demand for food and attention by crying. They were equally as amazing in different ways, but those days are a blur to me now. Perhaps the girls seem so capable to us now because they can interact with us so much more, and they have such different personalities. Elodie is always ready for adventure and Eloise is always cautious and quite expressionless when placed in a new environment.

As summer comes to an end, I am already looking forward to seeing how different they will be next year!

Katie & Markus' intimate wedding in Parkdale (Toronto)

Katie and Markus' wedding was like no other I have attended before, and that was what I loved most about it. They wanted to be married, but they didn't want to do it in a big way. They wanted to spend time with their family at their favourite neighbourhood restaurant that they frequent regularly, and had a ceremony to make the marriage official. Oh, and they all traveled in style to the restaurant in Toronto's vintage streetcar! It was the most fun I had taking Toronto's transit!

There were no toasts or speeches and no first dances. The most wedding thing about their day was the small ceremony, Katie's white dress, Markus' tux, and Mitch and I being there to document the whole thing.

Much love to you both, Katie & Markus! Congratulations!
