I have been photographing Allie and David for seven years now, for their engagement session, wedding, and their maternity session for little J. I was so delighted to photograph them again, this time as they are expeting baby #2! We enjoyed a very sunny morning at Filoli, wandering the extensive gardens that were in full…
We seem to have reached a golden age of Taiwanese American cookbooks in the last few years. I can remember learning to cook in the first few years after graduating from college and not having many places to turn when trying to conjure many of the dishes from my childhood. I tried to ask my…
On a beautifully sunny day, in the middle of the city that Fima and Noah called home, they formalized their vows, signing their San Francisco marriage license as well as their Jewish marriage license, the ketubah, as their family members contributed their blessings to the couple. They had managed to meet at the onset of…
Behold! The start of a whole new year! I set a goal for the entire year, which is a minimum of 15 minutes of movement every day. So we started it off with a January 1st run! Followed up by tacos in the Mission, as inspired by our return from Mexico City just the day…
It’s funny to look back and realize that it’s only been a year since Alex and I started playing mahjong with all our friends and just over a year since we bought a record player and started collecting vinyls. In that time, these two interests have become such big hobbies in our lives. It was…
What a beautiful setting on a beautiful evening for this wedding welcome party. Katelyn and Max held their rehearsal dinner with their closest friends and family, followed by drinks and a book swap with all of their guests. Take a peek at some highlights below. Welcome party guests were asked to each bring a book…
2023 was such a love-filled year. The fact that I am only now posting this review from Q2 in 2024 is an indication of how abundantly we’ve packed our lives from last year through to now. It was a year filled with travels, including Arizona and Texas for three more ballparks; Jackson, Wyoming for Alex’s…
Each year, I collect small gifts along my travels and compile them into a holiday gift set for my wedding clients. It’s my way of sharing a small part of my year with my couples when they’ve shared such an important part of theirs with me. Here’s a little peek at what I sent out…
What a joy it was to photograph this little family in their home. From posed portraits to all the in-between moments, Baby H and her doggo big sis were clearly ready to shine. Modeling is such hard work! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work at annawu.com,…
One week after our wedding, we went right back to Reeve Wines for their members’ weekend. We originally weren’t sure we would attend since we were literally just there, but instead we decided to stay the night in Healdsburg and turn it into a mini honeymoon! It’s always such a lovely time sitting at the…
Emily and Chris met almost a decade ago, when Chris asked her out to coffee and she responded by saying she only drinks tea… it turns out that as a Brit he actually just drinks tea too. They were engaged in 2018 and had every intention of getting married in 2020 and doing a grand…
It is not every day that of Scorsese’s Goodfellas, or a nightclub called Bimbo’s gets mentioned in the context of a wedding, but then again this couple is no ordinary couple. She is a professional flamenco dancer, and he is a sixth generation San Franciscan whose family is basically Bay Area royalty. They fell madly in…
