It’s time to recap May in the Bay! I was around California for most of the month, except my one week in Chicago, so plenty of adventures were had. We start with our Amber Collective planning meeting, where we invited people to help us brainstorm the next event. You can see how it came together…
At the end of May, I was thrilled to travel to Chicago to photograph a wedding. Since it was Memorial Day, I went ahead and extended my stay to a full week so I could wander around the city on my own time. Even though I grew up in the midwest and have visited Chicago…
They were meant to be together, but they just didn’t realize it at first. They met ten years ago through mutual friends and even worked together briefly. But when they tried dating the first time, it just did not work. Luckily, they remained friends. And by the time they came back around to the idea…
My friend Connie and I headed to Sayulita, Mexico for a few days, just for kicks. She’s on summer break from law school, and I’m just always down to travel. Plus, this was my first time in Mexico! It was a fun adventure mixed with a good bit of misadventure too. Our big mistake was…
I visit Seattle pretty regularly but it had been two years since my last visit, so when the opportunity came up to pick a west coast destination for Memorial Day, we flew on over to Seattle. As always, it was a wonderful time with delicious eats and good friends! Our first stop from the airport: The Whale Wins. Margaret…
We drove off the ferry and headed in to Richmond, BC, for our first stop: beef noodle soup. And so began our relaxing vacay filled with delicious eats and relaxing outings. Highlights below: I’m not sure if I ordered the wrong soup, but the beef noodle soup at Chef Hung’s wasn’t nearly as awesome as…
We awoke promptly at six in the morning and drove north from our quick overnight in Seattle up to Anacortes, Washington. We drove the car straight onto a boat– a strange sensation if you’ve never done it before– and we were ferried through picturesque islands toward Victoria, British Columbia. Victoria is the capitol city of British…
I didn’t gamble or go clubbing or even do much shopping, but I did enjoy a very fancy hotel stay and lots of delicious meals during my time in Vegas. A bit unconventional perhaps, but since Jesse was there for a work conference, I simply tagged along for the week! It also kicked off our little West Coast…
A month after my last trip to New York City, I was back again in May to photograph a lovely wedding and to enjoy more springtime adventures. We kick off the post with afternoon tea at Laduree in Soho! The famous Laduree is undeniably cute, but the already-expensive macarons ($2.85 I believe) jump to $3.15…
