When Tiffany asked if I had plans to visiting Boston any time soon, the answer was no, but we could make plans! And so I found my way there in mid-November. We were hoping to catch the tail end of autumn, which we got, but we also got the first snow of the season the…
I got to visit Dallas for the first time when I went to photograph Aileen and Jason’s family in the northern suburbs of the city. I am always so grateful to be working and to be traveling and of course happiest when both happen simultaneously! Here are some of the snapshots from my weekend exploring…
This has been the year of girl groups and retreats for me, and I’m so grateful for it! At the beginning of the month, a bunch of us headed to Austin for a retreat headed by Stephanie and Nikki. It was actually an extension of Stephanie’s Cocktail Collective that she normally does here in the…
I’m back with another monthly recap! Here’s a look at my October in the Bay. We start it off with an accountability meeting, in which we feign being Victorian ladies who swoon instead of running businesses. Love Meg’s beautiful home! On a Thursday afternoon, Brianne and I went to the instagram-bait Museum of Ice Cream…
Hello, Cincinnati! It’s been two years since I last visited the land of my middle- and high school days. Of course my relationship to this city is totally different now as an adult. For one thing, I never actually explored downtown as a kid, instead just staying in my little suburban bubble, but for another,…
It’s time for another month’s recap! We start off with my third viewing of Crazy Rich Asians, this time with Tiffany, Greg, Dan, and Jeri down in San Mateo. We decided to check out Wursthall before the movie. And then ice cream sandwiches from Cream as a pre-movie treat. Our September Office of Accountability Meeting….
I was so excited to fly to Rhode Island to photograph Elizabeth & Louie’s wedding there in August. The only other time I’ve been to Rhode Island was also to photograph a college friend’s wedding in Newport five years earlier. Our stay was very brief that time, so this time around I booked an extra…
The months keep flying by. Here’s a look back at August in the Bay. We start it off with our Office of Accountability meeting, this time at Eileen’s place in San Francisco. Delicious snacks, always. My aunt and cousin were still in town from last month. My aunt has always loved Snoopy for as long…
I love having paint dates, which basically entail picking a location, bringing our watercolor kits, and painting for a couple hours. It’s a lovely break from the work day and a nice reminder to set aside time for painting just for fun. I began these with my friend Pamela who’s actually a professional watercolor illustrator,…
July was a month well spent with family and friends. Since we attended my cousin’s wedding in Vancouver in the middle of the month, I had my mom, aunt, and cousin in town for part of the month as well. And of course I filled in the rest of the time with plenty of mini…
After my cousin’s wedding in Vancouver, some of us hopped on a ferry and headed to my aunt’s house in Victoria. It’s the capital of British Columbia and located on Vancouver Island, so the only ways to access it are by boat or by plane. I, for one, love this ferry ride! I managed…
I headed to Vancouver with my mom and other family members in order to attend my cousin Teh’s wedding. In fact, this was the first time I’ve ever been the family at a wedding, not the photographer or a friend. It was a quick couple of days in Vancouver, and since I’ve already visited a…
