I’m so honored to be asked to photograph my friends’ families! It was lovely to see Kelly and catch up with her after a long time in pandemic isolation. It was my first time meeting little K, and he’s already getting ready to be a big brother in the coming year! We wandered over to…
It was such an honor to photograph the Yee Lo family, my dear friends and master portrait photographers themselves, for their first official portraits as a family of four. We ventured out to Fort Funston for some foggy fun. I’m simply delighted to see my friends as new parents and to be able to document…
October recap! Orange October – playoff baseball for the Giants; a day trip to Guerneville for work; meeting Baby Westy; and the Warriors at Chase Center. Plus more! First, a teeny home project: I added a hook for my hanging plant so that it doesn’t just have to hang from the door any more. The…
It was so lovely to meet the Panjwani Family for this San Francisco portrait session. Grandpa and Grandma had just arrived the night before, and they were joined by the two girls, the older of of whom was a very cooperative model for the camera and the younger who is a pandemic baby and (understandably)…
What a special treat to meet one-month-old Baby G and his very sweet big sister, M the goldendoodle! Here are a few of my favorites from their at-home session. Please excuse the star stickers hiding baby’s face for privacy! I promise he is very adorable and handsome under there. Anna Wu is a wedding and…
Having already made it through over a year of pandemic postponements for this wedding, an atmospheric river of earlier-than-usual rain wasn’t going to put a damper on this wedding day. The original 2020 plan was for a church wedding followed by a Chinese banquet, but that was reimagined into a beautiful little ceremony in the…
It’s time for the September recap! We began the month with our accountability meeting, this time at Cassie’s house. With Do-Hee joining online. Dinner with Alex at Nari in Japantown. We visited pre-pandemic but wanted to come support it again. They now have a prix fixe menu, which we opted for. So delicious! Maybe a…
I love getting to see Candace and Derek’s wedding celebrations, which spanned two different years thanks to the pandemic, in this final form as beautiful wedding albums. They chose a gorgeous dusty blue leather cover, and the main album was debossed with custom calligraphy by Brown Fox Calligraphy. In addition to the medium sized book,…
It’s been twelve years since I last photographed Ilyssa for some fun portraits around Mission Bay. A lot has changed since then! I was delighted when Ilyssa reached out to do a new photo session, this time with her husband and three children. See a handful of favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and…
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 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…
