My first visit to Houston! I was Jesse’s guest to his friend Stephanie’s wedding. We were in Houston for only two days, but we survived the stifling humidity to enjoy this beautiful wedding and check out… the mall? See below! Ashton Gardens was such a gorgeous venue just north of Houston. Everything was indoors but…
Back in New York City again! I photographed this beautiful Brooklyn wedding in June, and of course I got to spend some time exploring more of Manhattan while I was there. We kick it off with a classic shot of Grand Central Station– this was en route to our Blue Hill at Stone Barns day trip….
On an absolutely beautiful early summer day, we hopped on a train from Grand Central and headed thirty miles north of Manhattan to the bucolic Stone Barns Center in New York. Blue Hill is a restaurant located on Stone Barns, their sister farm. We spent the afternoon nibbling on bites from the farmer’s market and the…
It has been ten years since Michelle and Xavier first started dating, and now it was all coming together in one big party in their own neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Both the bride and the groom started the day as a bundle of nerves, anxious to take this next step together. But as soon as…
I visit Seattle pretty regularly but it had been two years since my last visit, so when the opportunity came up to pick a west coast destination for Memorial Day, we flew on over to Seattle. As always, it was a wonderful time with delicious eats and good friends! Our first stop from the airport: The Whale Wins. Margaret…
We drove off the ferry and headed in to Richmond, BC, for our first stop: beef noodle soup. And so began our relaxing vacay filled with delicious eats and relaxing outings. Highlights below: I’m not sure if I ordered the wrong soup, but the beef noodle soup at Chef Hung’s wasn’t nearly as awesome as…
Since the beginning of 2014, I have been working on my year-long personal project, Art for Art. Once a month, I find a fellow photographer whose work I admire, and I photograph them; they photograph me. View the full set of previous shoots in the series here: Art for Art. For the month of May, I…
We awoke promptly at six in the morning and drove north from our quick overnight in Seattle up to Anacortes, Washington. We drove the car straight onto a boat– a strange sensation if you’ve never done it before– and we were ferried through picturesque islands toward Victoria, British Columbia. Victoria is the capitol city of British…
I didn’t gamble or go clubbing or even do much shopping, but I did enjoy a very fancy hotel stay and lots of delicious meals during my time in Vegas. A bit unconventional perhaps, but since Jesse was there for a work conference, I simply tagged along for the week! It also kicked off our little West Coast…
A month after my last trip to New York City, I was back again in May to photograph a lovely wedding and to enjoy more springtime adventures. We kick off the post with afternoon tea at Laduree in Soho! The famous Laduree is undeniably cute, but the already-expensive macarons ($2.85 I believe) jump to $3.15…
Since the beginning of 2014, I have been working on my year-long personal project, Art for Art. Once a month, I find a fellow photographer whose work I admire, and I photograph them; they photograph me. We’ll get to see each other work; we’ll explore how different or similar our styles might be; and we can challenge…
I took the quick hour-long flight from Northern California to Southern this past weekend to attend a wedding with my boyfriend Jesse and his family. Judy and Jeff’s wedding was a beautiful Californian soiree at the Muckenthaler Mansion in Fullerton. And the next day, I got to meet up with my friends over in Alhambra…
