Thanks to my lovely clients who invited me up to photograph their session at Sea Ranch, Alex and I made a whole weekend of it and enjoyed a wonderful road trip up the Sonoma and Mendocino coasts and Anderson Valley. In fact, it was much like our road trip just over a year before, when…
While we were on our lovely farm stay at Vernon Street Farm this fall, Alex and I and made a little day trip over to Cooperstown, New York. If you’ve heard of Cooperstown, it’s likely you are a baseball fan or know someone who is, because it is home of the National Baseball Hall of…
After a couple days in Manhattan, Alex and I met up with our friends and boarded a train from the brand new Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station. We headed northward for two hours and arrived at Hudson Station for the farm portion of our New York trip. Our good friends Do-Hee and Josh had …
Alex and I spent almost two weeks of September in New York, and we just happened to catch the transition from summer into fall. Of course it would have been nice to know that would happen before we left, because we had zero rain-appropriate clothing, but alas. We still had such a wonderful time, both…
Alex and I got to take a brief road trip down to LA for Labor Day weekend since I had a wedding to photograph down there. Our friends Jon and Pei were kind enough to host us, and we managed to squeeze a lot into our brief visit! First, scenes from our drive down: a…
We started July in Calgary, and we toted home some of the souvenirs below: a stack of records, and some dove-shaped coffee filters! And the next day, we stopped by Matt Horn’s fried chicken spot Kowbird in Oakland on the way to Napa. Wine tasting at Ashes & Diamonds And a wedding rehearsal for Whitney…
We had such a wonderful time in Calgary, arriving on Canada Day (July 1st) and staying just past the Fourth of July. We stayed at an airbnb in Inglewood, just east of Downtown, and it was perfectly situated for a few days of exploring the city. Lucky for us, dinner on night one was right…
Photography has brought me so many places and adventures into my life that I would have never otherwise experienced. This summer, we had the great honor of traveling to Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada, for a wedding. And of course we made an entire week’s trip out of it. Part one was a wonderful road…
June recap! Here are a handful of our moments around the Bay Area. First, dinner at Camper in Menlo Park. We walked around town and stumbled upon Abraham Vergese’s book talk at Kepler’s Bookstore. Also found this fun Lonely Planet book called “Where to Go When” that recommends travel destinations based on the month! Pretty…
Part two of our Texas baseball tour brought us to 102° Houston. Sure, it was ridiculously hot, but we still had a nice visit! Our first stop from the airport was Moon Rabbit for some delicious Vietnamese food, as recommended by our friends Melissa & Henry who generously hosted us for the week. Dinner at…
Alex’s quest to visit all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums has taken us to some interesting places around the country. This time it took us to Texas in the middle of summer, haha. We visited Dallas, which is home to the Texas Rangers in nearby Arlington, and Houston, home of the Astros. We stayed in…
May! A.k.a. wedding month, when we had our wine country celebrations. More on that at some later time, but here’s a look at the rest of the month in the Bay Area. Mom is in town! I took her to eat lobsters and to visit the Apple Park visitors center. They give you an iPad…
