This was the sweetest gift, given to Quinn by her office; an engagement session with her fiancé Theron. I met them both on a blustery, yet beautiful day out on the western end of San Francisco, and we captured these beautiful portraits out at Land’s End and Sutro Baths. A few favorites below: Anna Wu…
Such a classically beautiful wedding! Jenny and Jun were wed at the Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay. These two have known each other since childhood and have been classmates the whole way through, from middle school in China all the way through graduate school at Stanford. And now they finally got to tie the knot…
Baby Dillon wins the cake smash! She is the mayor of cake town, generously bestowing fistfuls of cake to her mom, dad, sister, and anyone who comes within arm’s reach. I had the absolute pleasure of documenting this little one’s first birthday party, held at Spark Social in Mission Bay. Glimpse the whole adorable sequence…
Westin is ONE! And of course his mom dreamed up the cutest birthday party to celebrate the occasion. Westy loves visiting the farmers market and loves his fruits and veggies (especially avocados). So his parents built him his very own farm stand in the back yard, plus a flower stand for their pup Roux. All…
Tina and Bryan first met eight years ago. Their first date took them all around Land’s End on a chat and a walk that basically never ended. For their wedding day, they chose to be married at Hakone Gardens in Saratoga, a nod to their mutual love of Japan. They also paid tribute to Bryan’s…
It has been nine years since I photographed Caterina & John for their engagement session and their wedding. I am so delighted to see them again, this time with their daughter, for a family session. We roamed around the San Francisco Botanical Garden in Golden Gate Park for these beautiful portraits, a little capture of…
After their beautiful morning ceremony and an afternoon break, Lakshmi and Jaxon gathered again with friends and family for their wedding reception amidst the redwoods of Deer Park Villa in Fairfax. With heartfelt toasts and a surprise dance performance by the groom and his friends, we all laughed, cried, and danced the night away. Unbeknownst…
Lakshmi and Jaxon met in Denver, though they both hail from the San Francisco Bay Area. To meet Lakshmi is to be instantly won over by her, as Jaxon’s own friends will tell you. (We might like her more than you now, they confess). She is the warm-hearted doctor with a big laugh and he…
Crystal and Chris are expecting their firstborn soon, and I was honored to capture their portraits in this time of anticipation and excitement. We started right in their neighborhood in Jackson Square, San Francisco, and we walked over to the Ferry Building, a trip they make every week to visit the Farmer’s Market. Here are…
It was so much fun to meet up with James and Jonathan (JJ and JC) for their engagement session all around the Stanford campus, where JC always used to visit JJ during his Ph.D studies. We even ended the session at the very unglamorous loading dock where JC would often wait to pick up JJ…
M and D are the sweetest souls who met in Palo Alto and immediately felt at ease with each other. Their wedding day was full of personalized touches, including getting ready together at home under the supervision of their cat Butter, a nod to their careers as academics with some keynote presentations during their reception,…
C and W were joined by their families and closest friends for a very lovely City Hall wedding on the fourth floor gallery, and we roamed the grounds afterwards for some beautiful portraits all around and outside the building. See a few of my favorites below: Wedding Vendors: Photographer: Anna Wu Photography Venue: San Francisco…
