DIY Tulle Pom Poms | Party Planning
We had a wonderful launch party for the last week, and I just wanted to share another DIY project from the party decor. Since the party was ballerina-inspired, I wanted to create something with all this coral-pink tulle, but I didn’t want to be too literal with tutus, so I made decorative tulle pom poms….

Post-TAF Chicago
After a week at TAF, we drove back up from North Manchester, Indiana, to Chicago. I visit the city regularly, about once or twice a year, and though I’ve never lived in Chicago, it always feels a bit like home. Our days after TAF were still filled with TAFers, doing our classic post-TAF gathering in…

Year Sixteen | TAF 2013
Sixteen years. That’s the number of times I’ve attended the Taiwanese American Foundation (TAF) summer camp. It’s a long time to spend with anything (so long that I lost count and spent the entire week thinking that I was on my fifteenth year), and I found myself struggling with the question, how do you stay…

Montreal, Quebec | A Canadian Fourth of July
Over the Fourth of July weekend, we took a little trip up to Montreal. Yes, we celebrated America’s birthday by running away to French Canada. We actually picked Montreal because it was close by (1 hour flight from New York) and it had been on both Jesse and my lists, but neither one of us…

Anne & Kyle | Berkeley City Club | Bay Area Wedding Photography
What an incredibly special wedding for a very special couple. All of the details were perfectly personal to them, including vintage birding table cards to reflect their love of birding, and the overall “1920s Paris” theme to reflect their year in Paris together and their love of all things historical. But the absolute best part…
