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 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…
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…
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…
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…
What an incredible miracle it is that Baby S is now here with us in the world, working her way from someone who didn’t even exist a year ago into whomever she’s going to become one day. And what a joy it is to get to meet her and to see my two good friends…
Alex and I got to take a brief road trip down to LA for Labor Day weekend since I had a wedding to photograph down there. Our friends Jon and Pei were kind enough to host us, and we managed to squeeze a lot into our brief visit! First, scenes from our drive down: a…
What a joy to reunite with Cynthia and Carolyn, this time on the East Coast! The Haeler family resides in New York, but all three times I had photographed them so far were in California, as they were here for their engagement, their wedding, and visiting family with little C. This time I got to…
August, my friends! It was a very full month for us in the Bay, since we were actually around for the whole month, minus one road trip up to Davis, which I’ve still included in the Bay Area recap below. First, a little sewing project for some dear friends of mine! This was a pattern…
Amanda and Parker have been an absolute delight to work with, from beginning to end. To cap off their wedding photography journey, we created two totally different wedding albums: one for them, and one for Parker’s mom, who opted for a different style. I loved the note that Amanda sent me afterwards, so I’ll share…
Angela reached out to me months in advance to schedule a couple’s session for her and her boyfriend to commemorate their time in San Francisco, as they were on the verge of moving to a different city together. Great! I thought, Why only celebrate engagements and weddings? I would love it if everyone did more…
Katie and Brandon were wed in a lovely ceremony at San Francisco’s iconic City Hall with their closest family members as witnesses. See a few favorites below! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco, California. She combines a “fine art” aesthetic, with a photojournalistic approach to beautifully capture the moments…
