Pauline and Justin were wed on a beautifully sunny day in San Francisco, surrounded by family and friends. The day was an absolutely perfect blend of tears (25%) and laughter (75%), as this East Coast transplant and San Francisco native tied the knot. Loved the pink and coral mix-and-match bridesmaids’ dresses. They coordinated so perfectly! And…
Karen and Casey are such a warm, down-to-earth couple. Though they live together in Philadelphia, they traveled to San Francisco to be wed near where Karen grew up, and after the wedding, they embarked on a cross-country road trip, visiting as many National Parks as possible on their way back to Pennsylvania. Sounds like an amazing and unique…

Have I mentioned how much I love photographing surprise proposals? This one was such a treat. Derrick lives in the Philippines while his girlfriend Vanessa lives here in California, so he planned the proposal from afar, including meeting me over videochat to discuss the details. Both their families were there as part of Derrick’s visit…
I absolutely loved this surprise proposal! It was such a rainy day that Bryan wasn’t sure he would be able to propose outside by the Golden Gate Bridge as he hoped. We planned a rain contingency and a contingency for that contingency. But when the time came, the rain held off and we had a…
The Presidio is one of my favorite places in San Francisco, not least because of all the gorgeous weddings and engagements that I’ve photographed there. Last weekend they hosted The Presidio Celebrations Showcase for the many venues located within the Presidio, and I was the official photographer on hand for the event. I had such a great time making…
On a lovely October day, I gathered a couple of my friends for a little hike around San Francisco. We started at Lover’s Point in the Presidio and wandered our way over to Ocean Beach. So many gorgeous sights to see. Dan, me, Tiffany, and Paul. Move here soon, Tiffany! Sneaking in two photos from Mt….
As we crossed the western side of San Francisco, we were graced with one of those classic San Francisco afternoons: mist from the ocean blending with the amber light of the sun to create a magical setting. It was perfect for Christine and Yang’s engagement session, as they climbed over and under trees and up and…
Aakriti and Chris first met when she interviewed him for a job. It was 9 in the morning and only thing Aakriti was interested in was her coffee. But over the next few months, they got to know each other, and after Chris’ constant pursuits, they finally went on a date and never looked back. On a…
Esther and Robert will soon be wed in their destination celebration in Thailand, but first, we met up for a lovely San Francisco engagement session, complete with their fluffy little dog Soju. See some of the favorites from this gorgeous couple below! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. She…
Kim and Joir-dan met in high school, but it was not love at first sight. They annoyed each other and then became friends before they finally started dating in college. They lived all over the United States and spent much of their relationship long-distance from each other. Almost eight years later, they got engaged. We…

October’s shoot was with Matthias. Our Styles Anna: Matthias has…
