Kwok Family | Filoli Family Portraits
It’s officially been a decade since I started photographing Joyce and Keven for their engagement session. So interesting to think how much life has changed for them since then (a marriage, completely new line of work, and two human beings who didn’t used to exist!). And as always, it’s an incredible honor to chronicle these…

Amanda & Susana | Oakland Wedding Photography
Amanda and Susana have been together for a decade, and they have built a strong and supportive foundation for their lives together in that time. They chose to have a small ceremony and lunch reception at Oakland’s Terrace Room overlooking Lake Merritt, before having a second banquet wedding up in Seattle for family. A very…

Vernon Street Farm
After a couple days in Manhattan, Alex and I met up with our friends and boarded a train from the brand new Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station. We headed northward for two hours and arrived at Hudson Station for the farm portion of our New York trip. Our good friends Do-Hee and Josh had …

Emily & Josh | Sutro Baths San Francisco Engagement
Emily’s sister had gone to school with Josh and stayed loosely connected to him through their ties to the college, until eventually she realized she should really introduce Josh to her little sister Emily.

Chrissy & Aaron | Mt. Tam Elopement Photography
Well, I’ve never encountered a foggier day atop Mt. Tam. But Chrissy and Aaron have already been through many difficult challenges in life together: surviving a pandemic, caring for ailing family members, and also grieving great losses together. So this layer of cold, windy fog certainly didn’t rank anywhere on their top challenges list. Rather,…

Lesley & Min | Custom Calligraphy Wedding Album
Lesley and Min’s wedding was an absolute stunner at the iconic Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, and we created a beautiful wedding album befitting the story of their day. They chose a luxe linen for the cover, and we added custom calligraphy from Brown Fox Calligraphy with gold debossing for the title. Getting ready for the…

Helen & Ian | Sea Ranch Maternity Portraits
On a map, Sea Ranch doesn’t look all that far from San Francisco. Follow the edge of California northward, and it looks like you could hop right over to this section of the coastline in an hour or two. But of course, it’s actually quite a journey, as you follow the winding roads through valleys…

Autumn in NYC
Alex and I spent almost two weeks of September in New York, and we just happened to catch the transition from summer into fall. Of course it would have been nice to know that would happen before we left, because we had zero rain-appropriate clothing, but alas. We still had such a wonderful time, both…

Baby Yen | Oakland Newborn Portraits
Welcome to the world, little E! This family has been on quite an adventure in the last few months, preparing for E’s arrival and moving across states and across the Bay, but it’s so wonderful to see everyone here and settling in to their new lives together as a family of four (including Pawblo the…
