The tradition continues! Every year, we celebrate Shau-ru & Ed’s wedding anniversary with a wonderful portrait session. It’s been a tradition for six years running. This year, they’re getting ready to welcome a new member to the family! Congratulations, Shau-ru & Ed! Can’t wait to see what the next year might hold. Anna Wu is a…
I am excited to share Maxine and Justin’s beautiful wedding albums today! We created a medium 10×10″ album with a grey silk cover, as well as a mini 6×6″ album for the parents. I love how beautifully the debossing stands out on the textured fabric. Thank you to my friend Cassie for playing hand model…

I was in town for ten days of the tenth month this year! And in that time, I packed in some wonderful gatherings with friends, one last walking tour, and another craft day! We kick it off with a wonderful low-country boil at Cassie and Michael’s place. Shrimp! Sausages! Corn! Love it all and ate…
Amy and Terrence found each other serendipitously and unexpectedly, online, of course. It had been a difficult period in Amy’s life, but she suddenly found herself in a tumble of novel-length messages back and forth with this interesting, funny, supportive new man. They found endless similarities with each other, becoming more and more convinced they’re…
I was actually in town for the entire month of September! And I have the photos to show for it in this very packed post! Continuing previous themes, I went on a bunch of Oakland walking tours, held a craft day, attended a beautiful wedding ceremony, and checked out a bunch of museums and gardens. Let’s jump…
Kelly and Matt first met in business school, with both of them a bit shy at first and reluctant to lock in to a relationship. But they quickly shed their commitment-phobic ways when they found how much better life is with each other. After a few years of dating and year and a half of a bicoastal long…
Rachel and Rodney are two peas in a pod, delighted by the coincidence of sharing the same initials and last name and being born a day apart. They’re best friends who have tried basically every Livingsocial/Groupon activity possible, and they love San Francisco, which we well embraced in our shoot along the Embarcadero. See a…
On a gorgeous day in San Francisco, I met up with Alice and Mike for their engagement session. We started in Golden Gate Park and ended over at Sutro Baths, where we enjoyed the seaside breeze with these two, perfectly comfortable with each other and enveloped by golden hour. 0 Anna Wu is a wedding and…
After a weekend spent melting in our crazy 105-degree heatwave, we thankfully returned to more normal weather, and I was excited to explore the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park with Allie and David for their engagement session. They were so sweet and even sent me on my way with a giant homemade cookie at the…
I have a long-running relationship (ok, it’s an obsession) with Boba Guys. Thanks to my Taiwanese American connections, I met the owners Andrew and Bin back in their early days, and I’ve been a loyal patron of their pop-ups and stores in both SF and NYC ever since. Recently, we doubled up on the Taiwanese American foodie…
I was only in the Bay Area for the first week of August before taking off to the East Coast for the rest of the month, but in that first week I managed to visit two museums, go on a hike that ended in a wine tasting, and enjoy a few meals and meetups with friends….
