Neera and Jeff live in Salt Lake City, but they were back in the Bay Area visiting Neera’s family and planning for their upcoming multi-day wedding celebrations here in California, and we were able to squeeze in their engagement session at Land’s End, right after some late-season rain storms. Such a beautiful, if windy, day….
I had the best time roaming around Stanford’s campus and visiting The Dish with M & D on a beautifully sunny day. You’d think that after fourteen years living in the Bay Area and working as a photographer I would have visited the Stanford Dish at least a handful of times for photo sessions or…
May recap! Starting with a lovely sushi dinner at Nara. Lots of bread projects this month from the Mooncakes and Milkbread cookbook by Kristina Cho. Red bean buns! Back on that gel nail polish train. Sunnyvale Farmer’s Market, followed by a french dip sandwich from Adamson’s. Miso corn buns! And dinner at Ramen Nagi, which…
It was such a joy to meet Rachel and walk through Crissy Field with her. We captured some portraits for her public speaking business, in which she speaks about her experiences with hearing loss, deafness, and cochlear implants. Here are a few of my favorite images, below: Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer…
February recap! We started off the month with a 5k/10k race and wrapped it up with a Reno/Tahoe trip. Below are those highlights and everything between! Office of Accountability monthly meeting. Run training. And running the Kaiser Permanente race in Golden Gate Park! Post-run dim sum at Dragon Beaux. Dinner at Piccino, and a massage…
It is such a joy to share these photos of this sweet family with you all. I photographed Carolyn and Cynthia’s wedding back in the smoky, pre-pandemic days of Fall, 2019. And now they have welcomed a baby girl to their family. The trio lives over in NYC, but they traveled back to the Bay…
Springtime at Stanford! It’s been years since I’ve photographed on the Stanford campus, and it was such a delight to be back. Jenny and Jun are both PhD students at Stanford, but they have actually been classmates ever since middle school. Glimpse some of my favorite portraits from their engagement session below! Anna Wu…
On Twosday, that is, Tuesday, February 22, 2022, Stefanie and Terence headed to the edge of San Francisco with just two friends and their photographer (me) to be wed along the California Coast. It was a truly blustery day, with strong winds whipping around, and eventually, even pea-sized hail flying down from the sky. But…
Brittany and Akinyemi met in San Francisco four years ago, and they have since explored the city together, going on long hikes and enjoying delicious meals at a variety of restaurants. We returned to a couple of their favorite places for their engagement session, just two months into their engagement and only one month from…
We started off the new year with a trip to Paso Robles, and once we came back, I tried to mentally catch up to the fact that it was a new year. Here’s a look at the start of 2022! Behind the scenes with Terry (and Angela Davis + Yuri Kochiyama) in Oakland Chinatown for…
What a beautiful day to return to Land’s End, the site of Tina and Bryan’s first date, for their engagement session. From golden hour in the trees to sunset over the water, we celebrated this bit of magic and love in the corner of San Francisco. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based…
Another year, another birthday! Every January, I throw myself a birthday party as a way of kicking off the next trip around the sun. In the past few years, I have hosted a moody dinner party, spoon carving, pottery, my 10-year business anniversary, a plant party, a Victorian-modern tea party, a gathering all about gatherings, and most recently, a shibori…
