The mountains rise grandly over the distinctive blue-green lake, with the glaciers peeking through the center of it all. Lake Louise is an absolute gem in the Canadian Rockies, and it served as the perfect backdrop for Lesley and Min’s beautiful wedding day. What an honor to travel to this special place and to document…
The first time they met, Nina really did not like Blake. She found him arrogant and borderline unbearable. It turns out he was just trying really hard to impress her, haha. Luckily they stayed friends, and everything turned around once they got to know each other. We met up a fun engagement session featuring Blake’s…
These blustery summer days in San Francisco don’t make for the most welcoming seaside outings, but they sometimes make for the most gorgeous wind-filled portraits! So it was with this engagement session at Sutro Baths with Marion and Jason. See a few favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San…
Parker is always ready to make anyone laugh, and when that someone is Amanda, the universe aligns, and all is right with the world. There is greater joy than Parker and Amanda laughing together. It has been an absolute delight to photograph these two. Their wedding day was plenty overcast with some sprinkles even coming…
It takes a really incredible blend of persistence, commitment, and of course love to survive an international long-distance relationship through a pandemic, when you are each locked down in your country and completely unable to even visit one another. And that is exactly what E and J have done, between here and Australia. They are…
Yan and Dave met in New York City, and their paths then took them to the west coast, with Yan landing in Seattle for a year while Dave ended up in San Francisco. But the end to long-distance is already in sight, as these two will soon be wed and reunited. In the meantime, Yan…
Annsa and Arvind have been the most delightful couple to work with through the years. I have had the honor of photographing a series of portrait sessions for them, in lieu of what was originally planned to be their 2020 wedding. They didn’t end up having the party, but they have been wed now for…
Sharon and Andrew exude warmth and care for each other and for those around them, and their community also radiates that same love and care back at them. Though they had a large wedding, with 220 guests, many of whom were under the age of five, the whole celebration felt remarkably intimate. The entire day…
I first got to photograph Olivia and Alex’s engagement session last year, before they were wed in the fall North Carolina. This spring, they returned to the Bay Area for their West Coast wedding reception, a Chinese banquet at Harborview on the Embarcadero. Olivia’s mother Keilani was so kind to have coordinated everything with me…
The forecasts declared a 100% chance of rain, but just as we arrived in Golden Gate Park for our first look, the rain departed, and it didn’t come back until after our little ceremony in the redwoods. Such was the theme of life both being unpredictable and also going as smoothly as we could have…
I still don’t know what kind of a crazy time warp we all stepped into in 2020, but I am still a bit bewildered, trying to step out on the other side. The Lynch family was one of the last photo sessions I photographed before we all went into lockdown in March, 2020, and now…
Congratulations to Amy and Sumedh on their beautiful San Francisco City Hall wedding! So many friends and family were able to attend for their civil ceremony, and then we roamed around for some portraits afterwards. Here are a few favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco, California. She…
