Angela & David | Redwood City Maternity Session
Angela’s sister Betty was the one to reach out and book this portrait session for her as a gift. Angela is an OB/GYN and is expecting her first child this winter! We were able to wander Bair Island just outside their place for some beautiful sunset portraits, and then we had a little part two…

Emily & Noah | Golden Gate Bridge Proposal
This surprise proposal took a bit of a pivot when Noah’s plans for a Napa proposal got rained out the previous weekend. Left to improvise, he got cornered into just admitting the whole plan instead. So, perhaps Emily wasn’t really surprised by the time we got to this particular spot the following week, but she…

Su-Wang Family | Berkeley Portrait Session
I am so honored to be asked back by previous client friends. It’s been a few years since Cynthia & Erik’s pandemic-era engagement and wedding, and now they are back in the Bay Area, visiting with their new little one! We went back to the site of their engagement session, the Lawrence Hall of Science,…

Chin Family | Baker Beach San Francisco

But the Chin Family powered through and radiated their own joy and warmth. Such a fun little…

Julia & David | Bernal Heights Proposal
Not all proposals are surprises! In this case David already had to reschedule the proposal because Julia figured out the original date. When rain forecasts threatened the new date, he decided to just go ahead with it anyway. Julia was still working overtime trying to spoil the surprise, so before they even got there, she…

Garrison Family | San Jose Portrait Session
It is such a special treat to photograph friends year after year! Last time S was barely beginning to walk, and now she’s running around! We met at their neighborhood park for a lovely little session this year, marked by crispy fall leaves and the whims of a moody toddler. Anna Wu is a wedding…

Grace | San Jose Author Portraits
Grace has been a friend and a client for almost a decade now, as we were connected through the Taiwanese American community here in the Bay Area and I have been photographing her and her family since 2016. I was excited to hear that Grace’s memoir has been picked up for publication, and I was…

Kwok Family | Oakland Portrait Session
It has been twelve years since I first started photographing this family, and of course by family I mean J & K for their engagement session long before the kids came along. It’s such a privilege to watch these families grow and to have a part in documenting their stories over time. For this session…
