Now Seeking 2010 Assistants!

It’s a little late into the season, but  I’m happy to introduce the very first Anna Wu Photography Assistant Program, starting 2010. I am looking for one to three people who are seriously interested in photography and have time to dedicate to learning and working with me. Please read through this page thoroughly before applying….

The Shay-Tang Family | Kirk in the Hills, Michigan | Lifestyle Photographer

When I arrived, the house was buzzing with preparations for Lily’s big day. This was the day she would be introduced to solid food. But you have to think of solid as a flexible term. Solid like… soupy rice pudding. But food that’s not in a bottle is a big deal! We were all making…

Laurence Kim Workshop- One on One in Seattle

First of all, if you’re ever trying to find the Queen Anne district, don’t be fooled by the numbering grid in downtown Seattle. They are not connected. In fact, they run in opposite directions. But besides my embarassingly dramatic 45-minute-late entrance, everything about my workshop with Laurence Kim was fantastic. Why fly to Seattle when…

All You Can Jet!

Sometimes I dream about the jetsetter lifestyle– not only flying to all kinds of places, but actually doing so spontaneously. I could wake up in the morning and think, I’d love to be in New York today,  and voila, be there before sundown! But really, how many people actually have the flexibility in their time…

Dan Hutchings, Vocalist | San Francisco Headshots Photographer

Dan Hutchings is a classical vocalist based in San Francisco now, but soon moving out of state. He’s reserved, straightforward, and classically good looking too. The cool thing about this session is that it’s the first one I did right here, at my new place in San Francisco. Looking forward to many more to come!

Midwest Tour

Even before it hits, you can feel it coming on. It takes but one step from the plane onto the jetway for it to strike in full force. The humidity. The heat. It’s a giant cloud stifling you with its sticky, unsolicited embrace. Welcome to Cincinnati. To be honest, I kind of missed it. There’s…

Ode to Oakland

The afternoon sun entices me out of my desk chair and over to the window. Floor to ceiling, wall to wall, Downtown Oakland. Seven palm trees in front of the Tribune tower, next to the courthouse. OUSD, Laney College off to the left. I’ve looked at this view a million times, and it still hasn’t…

Seattle Sneak Peek

It’s a struggle every day as the sun battles the clouds. Seattle’s gray, dreary reputation is redeemed each day around 2pm when finally, blue peeks through, the sun trumphantly takes over, and the city transforms. Sunny, mid-70s– beautiful. I leave you with a sneak peek from the Bite of Seattle two days ago; today’s the…

Susie Fong, Harpsichordist | San Francisco Headshots Photographer

Susie peered into the window like a child sneaking a peek at the Christmas presents long before it was time, and she gestured me over to show me. In one room, a harpsicord with light-colored wood ornately painted with floral designs. In another, a stark modernist piece with sleek curving lines and a bold red,…

Jenny & Kevin | LACMA | Los Angeles Engagement Photographer

They met through Craigslist! When Kevin was looking for housing for a summer internship in San Francisco, he came across Jenny’s apartment, which was being sublet for a summer. He didn’t end up living there; he didn’t even really get to know Jenny that well right away, but the connection was made. A couple years…
