It was such a joy to visit my friend (and talented florist) Melanie at her home to met her new baby and to photograph her family. Baby Naomi is now three months old! Meet her and the adorable family below. Absolutely precious. Congratulations, Melanie & Owen! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based…
Happy very belated birthday, Tiffany! Back in April, my good friend Tiffany hosted a lobster feast for her birthday. The lobsters were flown in from Maine; Tiffany decorated with a loose nautical theme and her own calligraphy; we had the mesmerizing Oceans from Disney playing in the background; and it was wonderful, festive, and delicious. See…
Karen and Casey are such a warm, down-to-earth couple. Though they live together in Philadelphia, they traveled to San Francisco to be wed near where Karen grew up, and after the wedding, they embarked on a cross-country road trip, visiting as many National Parks as possible on their way back to Pennsylvania. Sounds like an amazing and unique…
Ahh, springtime in DC. I made it down for peak cherry blossom season a couple years ago as I was finishing up my Pointe of View series. This time, we drove down from Philadelphia the first weekend of April, missing the blooms by a week. But we still had a great weekend down in DC, headlined by…
An intimate boudoir session at home. The perfect gift for herself and surprise for her partner. Hair & Makeup: Becky, BeautifulOne Makeup Artistry Boudoir by Anna Wu Photography is soft, beautiful, elegant, and always tasteful. It is less about seduction and more about intimacy. Together, we find that balance between vulnerability and courage in front of…
We’ve finally made it to the final stop of our whirlwind tour through New Zealand and Australia: Melbourne. Our stay was only two days long, but we all fell for the city in that short time. Melbourne and Sydney have a running rivalry much like LA vs. New York or maybe LA vs. SF. (And…
We designed a beautiful set of albums for Serena and Cliff, and for the first time, I filmed a short little video of me flipping through the book so you can see it in action! And you can also take a closer look at some of my favorite spreads in the images below. The main album is…
It’s such a joy to get to photograph friends all over the country. While I was in Chicago two weeks ago, I met up with Angie and Randy for their engagement session downtown. We explored the beautiful mosaic-covered Chicago Cultural Center and wandered over to Millenium Park where Randy had proposed. See some of my favorites…
We continue the series with more explorations around Sydney, including a quick visit to the coastal shores of Bondi Beach. We start off again in Surry Hills, the neighborhood where we stayed for our three-night visit. Our airbnb was cute, but the windows did not have screens and I got eaten alive by a mosquito and…
After a whole lot of anticipation, we finally made our way to Sydney, Australia. There was quite a bit of hype for the city, considering our friend did fall in love with it, quit his job, and move across the world to live there. And then he met a girl, fell in love with her, and…
I’m thrilled to share the second in my series of Portrait Parties. The idea is very simple: I gather a small group of people, we throw ourselves a little party, and I take portraits of everyone. Each participant contributes to the party too, and we all get to connect with each other without the pressures of…
We bid our early morning farewells to New Zealand and headed to Australia; specifically, Hamilton Island, a small resort island near the Great Barrier Reef. It’s the kind of place where golf carts are the mode of transportation and housing comes mostly in the form of timeshares and hotels. On our agenda: SCUBA diving in the Great…
