Back in May, I got to fly to Chicago to photograph a beautiful wedding for my friends Eric and Ninna. Of course, with many of our friends in town for the wedding, we also got to hang out for a couple days before and after. A lot of my photos this trip were from around Jessica and Alex’s…
Cherry blossoms everywhere. It was the absolute perfect week of the year to be in Philadelphia. From wandering the streets of Fishtown to exploring a couple world-class museums, it was a lovely trip. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco but often traveling and working around the…
First of all, a big congratulations is in order for my friend Brianne who, as of this week, is now a full-time calligrapher! We met only recently through a mutual friend of our shared alma mater, but we hit it off right away, and we’ve been thinking up all sorts of collaborations ever since. Check out Brianne’s…
Located just two hours south of San Francisco, Monterey makes for a perfect day trip from the Bay Area. I’ve been lucky enough to visit Monterey Bay four times in the last year, for a variety of reasons, including weddings and personal trips. This March, when I was down in Monterey for a couple days, I visited the Monterey…
I’m not a very outdoorsy person by nature. Lacking in athleticism, having no survival skills, and having a general dislike for insects makes me pretty useless for most intense outdoor activities. But walking through pretty nature? Yes. That I love. Back in March and April, I got to go on four different hikes around the…
You know it’s a wonderful day when you get to hang out with Leia and R2D2. Those would be Serena and Cliff’s two adorable little dogs, of course. With the two Star Wars pups in tow, we headed to Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park. Just one year ago, it was the site of an elaborate scavenger…
Back in February, I hit the (very familiar) road for a solo road-trip down to Los Angeles. I got to visit my friends Kevin and Jenny’s new home in Alhambra, check out a waterfall hike with my friend Connie, sneak in an “Art for Art” shoot, and even go grapefruit picking in the city of LA….
I absolutely love photographing proposals. I love being in on the secret and helping with the planning. But most of all, I love capturing the emotions of the moment when it all comes together. When Eric contacted me about proposing to his girlfriend at The French Laundry, I jumped at the chance to help capture it….
My thirtieth birthday party was half a year ago, but the celebration continues. After being featured on Style Me Pretty, my photographs got picked up for publication in this beautiful Australian magazine, Hooray! Magazine. It’s filled with large photographs, and I got three-and-a-half spreads for my images. There’s nothing quite like seeing your work… or…
It was the perfect mid-week getaway. Out on Angel Island, you’re in the middle of the bay, surrounded by San Francisco, Marin, and Oakland; so close to everything, and yet perfectly removed. In the winter, there is only one ferry to the island at 9:15am and one ferry leaving from the island at 3:20pm. It being a…
Her sister’s wedding brought them together four years ago, when they found out that Ami and Arjun’s mothers were actually childhood friends in India and had just reconnected. At the time, both Ami and Arjun had just graduated from college and were working in New York City, so they went out for dinner (where incidentally Ami was all dressed up for…
Stephanie is a beautiful pianist studying down in Southern California. She contacted me for a portrait session because she fell in love with my ballerina series. We met up in San Francisco while she was visiting on a break from school and captured these elegant portraits. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based…
