A few years ago, we visited our sweet friends, Justin and Mary Marantz, at their home in New Haven, Connecticut for our first real, authentic New England experience. Complete with a Yale football game, a visit to the town Gilmore Girls was based on and lots of good food (especially mashed potato pizza!) and better conversation. You can read all about it here. At the end of that visit, we told our hosts that Arizona was next! And, eight months later, they were able to come out for their very own Demos Desert Tour. We took two days. Completely. Off. A rarity for workaholics, like us. We laid by the pool for hours on end, went to an escape room for the first time (and had so much fun that we did it twice!) and a whole list of other Phoenix must-sees and dos.
We talked… until the world made sense again
So, we figured the best way for us say “thank you” to them for always reminding us to shoot for silver frames, for grandchildren, for legacy, for love, was to freeze this moment of their story. With a little mini-shoot in the desert. And say four powerful words they express so well: Stop. This one stays.
We love you Justin and Mary.
