Here we are with the final monthly recap of 2018. It was a wonderful month on the quiet side, filled with gatherings of friends and family and lots of time at home finishing up my work for the year. First, a gorgeous sunset scene from the Marin Headlands. A little lunch break in the middle…
The finale of Anna and Amy’s Arizona Adventures is here! And it’s Scottsdale, the city we actually stayed in all three nights. We kick it off with some explorations of Scottsdale on Thursday night. First, the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA). Here’s a James Turrell skyspace similar to the one you can find at…
If you’ve missed parts one and two of Anna and Amy’s Arizona Adventures you can start with those links and rejoin us here for part three: Sedona. We made a day trip from Scottsdale, squeezing in just two hikes and two meals before heading back. I would love to spend more time in this region….
If you missed part one of Amy and Anna’s Arizona Adventures, you can catch it here. This is part two: Phoenix! We flew in and out of Phoenix and explored the city a bit in the beginning and the end of our short trip. Since I had inadvertently begun a tour of various state capitols…
When my friend Amy and I decided to unite our shared sense of wanderlust in the form of a winter vacation, our main criteria were: scenic and not too wintry. And that’s how we found ourselves in Arizona! Apparently Frank Lloyd Wright’s doctor agreed about the mildness of winter in Arizona, because that’s what he…
It’s time for another monthly recap! Here’s a look back at my November in the Bay. First up, lunch with some new orchestra friends at Pintoh in Oakland. Guy is three! Here’s his birthday party down in Sunnyvale. With Dave, Rebecca, Mairin, and Nikhil — all friends and past wedding clients of mine!…
When Tiffany asked if I had plans to visiting Boston any time soon, the answer was no, but we could make plans! And so I found my way there in mid-November. We were hoping to catch the tail end of autumn, which we got, but we also got the first snow of the season the…
I got to visit Dallas for the first time when I went to photograph Aileen and Jason’s family in the northern suburbs of the city. I am always so grateful to be working and to be traveling and of course happiest when both happen simultaneously! Here are some of the snapshots from my weekend exploring…
This has been the year of girl groups and retreats for me, and I’m so grateful for it! At the beginning of the month, a bunch of us headed to Austin for a retreat headed by Stephanie and Nikki. It was actually an extension of Stephanie’s Cocktail Collective that she normally does here in the…
I’m back with another monthly recap! Here’s a look at my October in the Bay. We start it off with an accountability meeting, in which we feign being Victorian ladies who swoon instead of running businesses. Love Meg’s beautiful home! On a Thursday afternoon, Brianne and I went to the instagram-bait Museum of Ice Cream…
At the end of our Joshua Tree trip, we went ahead and stopped by Alhambra for lunch since we had to go through LA to drop off Courtney anyway. Oh, how silly, because I would be back two days later to photograph Emily & Adithya’s wedding! But in between, I had to go back up…
I’ve already expounded on the joys of taking this road trip with four other bossladies and shared some of the portraits that we made out in the desert, but here’s a better look into what we did the rest of the trip. Here are some of the many orchards of central California. My go-to California…
