On a lovely October day, I gathered a couple of my friends for a little hike around San Francisco. We started at Lover’s Point in the Presidio and wandered our way over to Ocean Beach. So many gorgeous sights to see. Dan, me, Tiffany, and Paul. Move here soon, Tiffany! Sneaking in two photos from Mt….
Scenes from around town in October as various friends came to visit! The Mill with Michelle the day before Young & Jess’ wedding. Lester’s birthday dinner. Dim sum Sunday! Hanging out in the Mission. My new best friend, whom I named “sassafras.” I’ve already read so many books since I got it! Anna Wu is…
The last weekend of September, I headed to NYC for a brief visit from Philly. It was perfect timing, because we got out of town while Philadelphia was shut down for the Pope’s visit; I got to photograph my clients’ engagement session in Central Park, and Boba Guys was following me all the way from SF for their pop-up in Manhattan too. This…
At the end of August, I got to make a trip down to LA to photograph cupcakes for Dots in Pasadena. Pretty awesome career move! As an extra bonus, I also got to meet baby Ellie, hang out with great friends, and explore the Arts District. See some of my snapshots around town below: Baby Ellie! A…
Two mini adventures with Duke friends around the Bay. One: Point Reyes, a tree tunnel, and an abandoned ship. Two: A hike up Panoramic Hill with views as lovely as promised. Debo, Dan, and I headed up to North Bay. Our first stop: Point Reyes lighthouse. Next, we went to visit this awesome tree tunnel! …
My friend Sarah is the epitome of boho chic. She splits her time between Paris and California and is always off on a new adventure, trekking across the world by herself or with friends in different countries every year. For her birthday, she held a low-key but adorable little gathering in the spare room of…

Mathilda at the Orpheum with Nancy, and an art installation in Hayes Valley. Farewell to Sun & Elliot as…
I was just in NYC again last weekend, but here’s a little overview of my previous visit back in July. I arrived on the Fourth of July and got prime access to the Macy’s fireworks show; hung out with friends and indulged in some good eats; and wandered the Flatiron district, the Whitney, and the…
Oh, Cincinnati. I don’t return to Ohio (where I spent my middle school & high school years) nearly enough, but I’ve made a better effort in the last couple years. This spring visit was perfectly tacked onto my Chicago trip. To say the city is undergoing a lot of change is an understatement. Over-the-Rhine, once known…
Back in May, I got to fly to Chicago to photograph a beautiful wedding for my friends Eric and Ninna. Of course, with many of our friends in town for the wedding, we also got to hang out for a couple days before and after. A lot of my photos this trip were from around Jessica and Alex’s…
Cherry blossoms everywhere. It was the absolute perfect week of the year to be in Philadelphia. From wandering the streets of Fishtown to exploring a couple world-class museums, it was a lovely trip. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco but often traveling and working around the…
Located just two hours south of San Francisco, Monterey makes for a perfect day trip from the Bay Area. I’ve been lucky enough to visit Monterey Bay four times in the last year, for a variety of reasons, including weddings and personal trips. This March, when I was down in Monterey for a couple days, I visited the Monterey…
