In the middle of May, I got to travel back to the Midwest to shoot a wedding in Chicago. I was only there for a couple days, but I got to catch up with some friends and indulge in some good eats while I was there. Below are just a few frames from the trip:…
At the end of April, I drove down the California coast with my mom, as she was headed to San Diego for a conference while I was headed there to shoot Caity and Nate’s wedding in La Jolla. Some of you might remember my Cali Coasting road trip last year, in which I also drove…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. It’s been an incredible weekend packed with friends, food, and festivities. We kicked it off on Friday with two of our friends getting engaged in an elaborate surprise proposal plan, dinner and drinks with twenty friends from all over the US, fried chicken…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. Just a couple days ago, I was on a mini vacation in Las Vegas. I have so many travels booked this year, but these couple months are truly packed with travel and weddings. It’s busy and wonderful. Below, one of my favorites from…
Trying to time your arrival in Washington, D.C. to coincide with the peak bloom of the cherry blossoms is no small task. Each year, thousands of these beautiful trees bloom for just a couple weeks, with “peak bloom” lasting as short as a couple days. In the weeks leading up to my trip, the cherry…

Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. In celebration of Taiwanese American Heritage Week, I wanted to share just one of my favorite images from our ballerina shoot in Taipei, Taiwan.

What an honor it is to photograph the Gardner family year after year after year. This is the fourth time I’ve had the privilege, and the first time (officially) that I got to photograph them at their home in Ojai. What made this portrait session extra special was that it was a gift from Aaron’s father….
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. On Friday, I had the privilege of attending opening night of the San Francisco Ballet’s Cinderella– a birthday gift from my friend Dan. It was a brand new production by Christopher Wheeldon, based on the Brothers Grimm version of the tale– a far darker version…
It turns out that one of the best dining experiences in all of New York lies not in the city but 45 minutes north at a little farm in the Pocantico Hills. On a Sunday afternoon, we left Manhattan to spend a day at Blue Hill at Stone Barns where they take farm-to-table to its…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. We started the day at 4am with hair and makeup and then took a cab at 6am to the famous Tidal Basin of D.C., encircled with its monuments and the beautiful Japanese cherry blossoms that grace the area with their fleeting pink puffs…
