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…
E visited Muir Woods with her whole family a while back, and she knew immediately that she wanted to come back and take her high school graduation photos there when the time came. Well, E is graduating next year! So the family made another trip, and we roamed around the ancient redwoods for these portraits,…
A and A were friends well before they started dating. Mid-pandemic, she asked him if he wanted to go on a bike ride through Golden Gate Park, which was now one big slow street, closed to car traffic. She just thought of it as an activity to do together as friends, but little did she…
Vivian and Dru were married in their back yard during the pandemic, but they never had professional photos to commemorate their engagement or their wedding. So we made up for it by hiking up Bernal Heights one evening with their pup in tow. The fog pulled over the city like a blanket, and the wind…
What a joy it is to document my dear friends Dan and Jeri as they journey into this next chapter of their lives! We embraced that warm South Bay sunshine for this magical session in the rolling hills of San Jose. I can’t wait to meet baby girl, and you can bet there will be…
It’s such an honor to document the new chapters of my couples’ lives! It has now been a decade since I first photographed mom and dad, and now it’s year two of getting to photograph the little one too. She even insisted on wearing the same dress as last year. This time we were quite…
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…
The mountains rise grandly over the distinctive blue-green lake, with the glaciers peeking through the center of it all. Lake Louise is an absolute gem in the Canadian Rockies, and it served as the perfect backdrop for Lesley and Min’s beautiful wedding day. What an honor to travel to this special place and to document…
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…
The first time they met, Nina really did not like Blake. She found him arrogant and borderline unbearable. It turns out he was just trying really hard to impress her, haha. Luckily they stayed friends, and everything turned around once they got to know each other. We met up a fun engagement session featuring Blake’s…
These blustery summer days in San Francisco don’t make for the most welcoming seaside outings, but they sometimes make for the most gorgeous wind-filled portraits! So it was with this engagement session at Sutro Baths with Marion and Jason. See a few favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San…
