I don’t think we’re supposed to play favorites with our clients, but of course I feel some type of way about my clients who have been with me through their engagements, weddings, and year after year for couple’s and family sessions! I have truly loved photographing C and C through the years, as this is now…
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…
What a joy to reunite with Cynthia and Carolyn, this time on the East Coast! The Haeler family resides in New York, but all three times I had photographed them so far were in California, as they were here for their engagement, their wedding, and visiting family with little C. This time I got to…
I love a good secret mission, and this was one of the all-time best! Months ago, before he had a date, a ring, or a solid plan, Ryan asked if I might be willing to fly to New York to surprise my friend Whitney and capture his proposal to her. He had told her ever…
As part of our trip to attend a New England wedding this November, we also got to spend a couple days in New York City, eating our way around town. Here’s a little recap below! Night one, dinner at Cosme with our wonderful host Julia! We took note of their use of Heath Ceramics. Duck…
If you saw my post of the Nakao Family, you might already know the story behind my day trip to NYC. I hopped on a bus from Philadelphia, and for less than $20 I was able to get to and from New York, round trip. Here’s a little glimpse at my wanderings! First I met…
I spotted a facebook post from my friend Maki one day looking for a NYC photographer to capture some family portraits since her family would be visiting her there. She had just moved to New York from San Francisco not long ago, and her parents would be visiting from Ohio and her grandfather visiting from…
I have a long-running relationship (ok, it’s an obsession) with Boba Guys. Thanks to my Taiwanese American connections, I met the owners Andrew and Bin back in their early days, and I’ve been a loyal patron of their pop-ups and stores in both SF and NYC ever since. Recently, we doubled up on the Taiwanese American foodie…
Over Christmas, Justin and I popped over from Philadelphia to New York City for a weekend filled wth art museums, Jewish and Chinese eateries, and other wanderings. Would you believe I’ve never ever been to the Guggenheim before? I finally made a visit thanks to my SFMOMA membership, which includes reciprocal access to the Guggenheim, The Whitney, and…
A quick little weekend trip to New York City! Thanks to Charinee and Dom for hosting us in your beautiful Brooklyn home! And thanks to the TAFers crew for a last-minute meetup too! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco but often traveling and working around the world. She…
The last weekend of September, I headed to NYC for a brief visit from Philly. It was perfect timing, because we got out of town while Philadelphia was shut down for the Pope’s visit; I got to photograph my clients’ engagement session in Central Park, and Boba Guys was following me all the way from SF for their pop-up in Manhattan too. This…
Sabrina and Brian first met when they were in Boston and New York, and for past year, they both lived on the Upper West Side together until they got engaged and decided to make the move out to California. It was so much fun to go from meeting with them in San Francisco to roaming around NYC…
