What a delight to meet Baby Z, two weeks after her arrival. And what a joy to see the whole family settling in to their new shape as a quartet. It was especially heartwarming to see how quickly and enthusiastically H has adapted to his role as big brother. See just a few of my…
August recap! Wow, so much baseball. And a few outings with friends as well. Let’s get right into it! The Giants continue to be #1 in all of MLB! We continue to attend a bunch of their games. I never thought I’d actually like going to so much baseball, but it’s quite a fun experience…
This was such a sweet little portrait session with Annie and Jon as they are expecting their firstborn next month. It’s been a whirlwind last year with a big move back to California, both of them working in healthcare, and also managing to get married amidst the pandemic. It was a lovely little break to…
If you’ve been following along, you might remember Elaine and Sean as the couple who had me hike two hours up and down a mountain for their engagement session. Of course it was completely worth it, not only because the setting was beautiful, but because Elaine and Sean were an absolute joy to be around,…
This was such a sweet double proposal. Aparna reached out to me to let me know that she and Shiv were planning their proposals together, and they would both be proposing, not as a surprise, but as something they wanted to do together. They had designed matching rings together, and each wrote a card that…
It is such an honor to be asked by a fellow photographer to photograph their family. I was delighted to meet Cassie’s parents and her sister on their long anticipated visit to San Francisco. We hiked up Bernal Hill for some golden hour magic! Dad and Rusty share a special bond. Of course they needed…
Daisy and Eric once walked down this stretch of coastline after Daisy had just met Eric’s entire extended family when she attended his grandmother’s birthday party. What a sweet place to return to in celebration of their engagement and upcoming wedding, remembering everything that has brought them here and being open to the journey ahead….
It was wonderful to meet Erin and Duc, for their engagement session over at Land’s End and Sutro Baths. Thanks to the Monday session, we had the place virtually to ourselves, and we also got lucky with the most beautiful golden hour light. See a few of my favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding…
Last year, in the midst of shelter-in-place, I set out with a group of photographer friends to work on a collaborative art project titled Isolayered. As we have since returned to some version of normalcy and then gone back towards isolation again, I’m reflecting on the beauty and the difficulty of community when connection becomes…
I would say that July was the month we quickly rushed out into the world, before quietly being ushered back into our homes. We had been fully vaccinated for over a month already, and started expanding our social circles and reclaiming old things like indoor dining, photographing full weddings, and going maskless. But then with…
I am so incredibly grateful for the community of women that I have here in San Francisco. There are so many people, local or not, who have held me up through the pandemic, but over and over again, it’s Cassie, Courtney, and Do-Hee who are always, unceasingly there for me — and for each other….
Say hello to the newest member of the Lee Family! I’ve had the privilege of photographing Adrienne and Jenton since their engagement session seven years ago, and we are continuing the tradition with these wonderful family portraits year after year. See some of my favorites from this at-home session below. This one is a follow-up…
