Crystal and Chris are expecting their firstborn soon, and I was honored to capture their portraits in this time of anticipation and excitement. We started right in their neighborhood in Jackson Square, San Francisco, and we walked over to the Ferry Building, a trip they make every week to visit the Farmer’s Market. Here are…
It was so much fun to meet up with James and Jonathan (JJ and JC) for their engagement session all around the Stanford campus, where JC always used to visit JJ during his Ph.D studies. We even ended the session at the very unglamorous loading dock where JC would often wait to pick up JJ…
M and D are the sweetest souls who met in Palo Alto and immediately felt at ease with each other. Their wedding day was full of personalized touches, including getting ready together at home under the supervision of their cat Butter, a nod to their careers as academics with some keynote presentations during their reception,…
C and W were joined by their families and closest friends for a very lovely City Hall wedding on the fourth floor gallery, and we roamed the grounds afterwards for some beautiful portraits all around and outside the building. See a few of my favorites below: Wedding Vendors: Photographer: Anna Wu Photography Venue: San Francisco…
June recap! Lots of Giants baseball, a Warriors championship, and weddings every weekend, including my last 2020-postponed wedding and a friend’s wedding in Tahoe. We start it with an in-person Office of Accountability meeting! And a couple participants joining from afar. Baby Westy is growing up so quickly. And Courtney hears some exciting news! It’s…
I am absolutely overjoyed to share this adorable family session, gifted from Jason to his sister Christine and the rest of their family. Christine’s son Larry was born during the pandemic, and for the longest time, so many of their friends and family could only watch him grow up from afar. Now, Larry is two…
It’s the grand finale of Neera and Jeff’s week of wedding festivities! For their wedding reception, we headed north to San Francisco for a waterfront celebration at the Exploratorium. The interactive science museum plus their tropical theme were the perfect tribute to the story of how Neera and Jeff originally met– as medical students in…
After a very fun sangeet, Neera and Jeff had their wedding ceremony at the San Jose Gurdwara, which is the largest Sikh temple outside of India. Neera got ready in her family home, while Jeff got ready at a nearby hotel. I love the parallel preparations they were having, apart but together in spirit. For…
Neera and Jeff met in medical school in the Caribbean and started dating while they were finishing up their training in Brooklyn. They are the perfect complements to each other, with Neera’s goofy and imaginative side drawing out Jeff’s more cerebral homebody self. What they both share is their strong ties with their families, and…
I had so much fun meeting this sweet little family and their energetic two-year-old CJ. She really just wanted to play on the playground, so we managed to sneak in a quick family session before letting her run off to the slides. See a few of my favorite images below! Anna Wu is a wedding…
At last, Tara and Potter’s wedding day has arrived! Tara and Potter were living here in the Bay Area when they initially planned for their 2020 wedding here in San Francisco, but the pandemic took them back to their hometown in Canada and then back to NYC, the city where they first met and fell…
May recap! It was quite the month, with two trips up to Healdsburg and another through Sonoma up to Mendocino County, celebrating 15 years in business as Anna Wu Photography, and even my own engagement! Here’s a look back at the month in the Bay: First off, happy birthday Josh! Here’s Westy admiring Uncle Josh’s…
