    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…

    L Family | Lands End San Francisco

    Golden hour! Rejoice! After several years of foggy photo sessions with this family, we finally struck gold! Don’t get me wrong, Karl the Fog is a staple of life here in San Francisco, and the grey backdrop often makes for gloriously moody portraits, but I do have a soft spot for this lovely warm glow….

    Laura & Walker’s Family | Presidio San Francisco

    It was wonderful to photograph Laura’s family again this year. Laura is the host of the Giants pre- and post-game show, so her schedule usually slows down after baseball season is over in the fall, but between covering the 49ers and all of her in-person hosting gigs and travel appearances, it has turned out to…

    Nikita & Samarth | Filoli Surprise Proposal

    I love a great surprise proposal, and this one was a true surprise! Samarth did such a wonderful job thinking through not only how to make it a surprise but also how to make sure it was all something that Nikita would love. He lured her to the beautiful gardens at Filoli under the guise…

    Digitale Chang Family | Golden Gate Park San Francisco

    This little family is just an absolute delight. We ran around the Music Concourse in Golden Gate Park for the morning, and I was very excited that little M even treated us to a bit of his conducting, since he absolutely loves the Golden Gate Park Band that performs here in the bandshell. Such a…

    Beverly Family | Oakland Redwoods Portraits

    What a joy to photograph this growing family! It’s always wonderful to spend time with Parker and Amanda, and it was extra special to meet their little one, especially after having just photographed them all when baby was still on the inside. That all feels like it was just yesterday, but I suppose it’s already…
