Ten years ago, I photographed K for a boudoir session, celebrating and capturing her body as it was at that time, before she planned to have children. This year she reached out to me under quite different circumstances, though her impulse to document and celebrate a changing body remains much the same. K was diagnosed…
I am so delighted to share this little mini session with the Chiang Family and McClellan Ranch in Cupertino. It was such a warm and beautiful day, and everyone was looking wonderful in their summer-to-fall outfits. Even Freddie the doggo matched the vibe perfectly! See a few of my favorites below. Anna Wu is…
Exactly seven years ago on this date, I was photographing Kim and Chris’ beautiful wedding in the redwoods and vineyards. What a perfect way to commemorate their anniversary, with their four and five year old boys in tow this time! We had a wonderful mini session, filled with rambunctious energy and lots of love. Happy…
I am very excited to share the first of my mini sessions from this season! It was a beautiful morning at McClellan Ranch in Cupertino with the always delightful Garrison Family. This is now my sixth time photographing Dan and Jeri, and I must say that every session is my new favorite session with them….
I am so grateful to have grown up within a Taiwanese American community that has not only nurtured my own creativity but also connected me to many fellow creatives who have charted their own unique paths in the world. This summer, several friends joined forces to start working on an ambitious documentary project: Life Lessons…
July recap! Let’s jump right in. Alex tagged along on a surprise proposal, and we had a wonderful dinner at Dalida afterwards. Fourth of July bbq at Steph and John’s. They ran a whole nature school, catching insects in Westin’s little bug catcher for the boys to look at. Cracked open another precious bottle of…

Lo and behold, it’s the June recap! I am catching up on my personal posts, at least for now. June was a packed month, with lots of hiking, a vegan edition of our Taiwanese American Cookbook Club, the completion of my eight month-long project making a custom mahjong set, and lots more, as shown below….
Hello May! We begin with the Office of Accountability’s monthly meeting, this time in person at Lindsey’s. Two symphony date nights in a row! We stopped by Teakwood for delicious Burmese food before Wizard of Oz. The symphony plays the whole soundtrack to the classic movie starring Judy Garland. The next day, the symphony played…
Here is a look back at our jam-packed month of April. We also visited Florida this month, but otherwise we were busy having adventures all around the Bay. First, Thai food for date night in the city. Vince, Alex, and I made the pilgrimage to Russian River Brewing Co. up in Healdsburg to wait in…
I started my Taiwanese American Cookbook Club this year as a way to celebrate and explore all of the Taiwanese American cookbooks that have come out in the last few years. A cookbook club is a potluck, where all attendees make and bring a dish from the featured cookbook. For our third cookbook club, we…
It’s time for our March recap! A month in which we had our second cookbook club; a camping trip in Pinnacles; and a surprise getaway to Stinson Beach. But it all began with a rainy day trek to the Oakland Museum of California’s White Elephant Sale. I picked up this set of four candlestick holders….
