I’m thrilled to introduce Aisle Society, a brand new website that was created by over thirty wedding bloggers. It serves as an interactive hub for wedding inspiration. Hop on over to see the new platform, and glimpse a few images from the Aisle Society launch party in San Francisco a couple months ago! Anna Wu is…
This year for my birthday, I opted for an interactive gathering: a pottery class! We gathered at Play with Clay in El Cerrito and dug in, pottery wheels and all. It was so much fun, I’m already plotting my next return to the wheel. I went with full traditional paper invites and everything, designed by…
I absolutely love seeing all the beautiful creations from my friend Brianne over at Brown Fox Calligraphy. We met up at my studio one day so I could help her photograph some of her favorite wedding suites and miscellaneous pieces from 2015. They’re all so pretty, it’s impossible to pick favorites, though this first one with its…
The Presidio is one of my favorite places in San Francisco, not least because of all the gorgeous weddings and engagements that I’ve photographed there. Last weekend they hosted The Presidio Celebrations Showcase for the many venues located within the Presidio, and I was the official photographer on hand for the event. I had such a great time making…
Cake party! We had such a lovely shoot with these wooden cake toppers from Brown Fox Calligraphy, cakes decorated by my friend Andrew Chao, and florals by Hawthorn Flower Studio. Here’s a little glimpse at our three pretty cakes below: Vendors: Cake toppers: Brown Fox Calligraphy Cake: Andrew Chao Florals: Hawthorn Flower Studio Venue: Berkeley City…
First of all, a big congratulations is in order for my friend Brianne who, as of this week, is now a full-time calligrapher! We met only recently through a mutual friend of our shared alma mater, but we hit it off right away, and we’ve been thinking up all sorts of collaborations ever since. Check out Brianne’s…
My thirtieth birthday party was half a year ago, but the celebration continues. After being featured on Style Me Pretty, my photographs got picked up for publication in this beautiful Australian magazine, Hooray! Magazine. It’s filled with large photographs, and I got three-and-a-half spreads for my images. There’s nothing quite like seeing your work… or…
The party was beautifully arranged– the perfect balance of a casual gathering and an elegant reception. Meghana and Aseem gathered with some of their closest family and friends at the Jacuzzi Family Winery in Sonoma, not quite for their wedding yet, but for their engagement party. It was a wonderful California celebration in advance of their Denver wedding later…
I flew over to New York City and took a bus with Jesse up to Boston so we could join our friend Bob in celebrating his birthday in style! This is a small departure from my usual flowery posts and wedding photos, but it’s really just a better glimpse at my photojournalistic side… with plenty of epic party…
As promised, a full post from the Pointe of View party in New York City! Major thanks to everyone who has supported the project through and through. We had a wonderful celebration at 39 Lispenard, with help from my boyfriend Jesse, party styling from Hannah of Hanalulu Co., and photography help from my friend Shang. Extra thanks…
A million thanks to everyone who came to my Pointe of View party yesterday in New York City! We had such a fantastic turnout for the party, and it was a great unofficial finale to the project. I had a lot of help with this party, and number one thanks goes to my boyfriend Jesse…
Sixteen years. That’s the number of times I’ve attended the Taiwanese American Foundation (TAF) summer camp. It’s a long time to spend with anything (so long that I lost count and spent the entire week thinking that I was on my fifteenth year), and I found myself struggling with the question, how do you stay…
