This is a tradition I’m absolutely delighted and honored to keep going year after year: the Kwok Family portraits! I first photographed Joyce and Keven back in 2013 for their engagement session, so we’re nearing in on a decade of this photography ritual, and it’s been an absolute honor to see this love story grow…
I loved meeting Mansi and Wes and trekking all over town for this fun engagement session. We covered a lot of ground, from Jackson Square through Chinatown and up to North Beach. San Francisco is still relatively new to these two, with Mansi having only joined Wes here right at the start of the pandemic,…
I met up with this beautiful family for some portraits in Buena Vista Park on a very sunny afternoon. Little R is getting ready to become a big brother! Congratulations to the whole family on the big life changes ahead. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work…
I’ve known Joyce pretty much since she was born, since our families were friends and we grew up occasionally meeting up in random parts of Michigan for holidays together. Although our mothers are still close friends, all of us kids have only kept loose tabs on each other since, so it was such an honor…
What a fun family session! It was so wonderful to run around this small redwood grove with the Chang family. It was an absolute joy to witness how much the two girls adore each other. What a blessing to go through life with such a loving sister. The girls were really into twirling. And matching…
This was such a beautiful session, already two years in the making. Annsa and Arvind booked me back in 2019, and by the time they actually have their wedding, it will be three years later, in 2022. They have been incredibly thoughtful and wonderful through this crazy time, not only in the glimpses I’ve seen…
Kylen and Charlie met when Kylen was anchoring the news and Charlie was anchoring sports at a TV channel in Lexington, Kentucky. They started off as friends, but a New Year’s kiss sealed their fates as something more. They’ve now moved to California together, where they’re both anchoring sports, and we celebrated their engagement with…
What an honor to follow up Malissa and Omar’s maternity session with these family portraits after they welcomed Baby S to their little pod! I loved each of these sweet little moments in their home. See some favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work at…
Jayleen is a Puerto Rican, queer, non-binary badass. Kailer is a proud trans man and a veteran. And in a small, rural area of Pennsylvania that doesn’t really embrace queer folks, the universe conspired to bring them together. I was honored when Jayleen and Kailer came to me with the idea of a “just because”…
It was so lovely to see Tien and Jeremy again. After having photographed their engagement and wedding, I got to photograph this next big moment in their lives, as they get ready to welcome a little one into their family! We walked around the beautiful Morcom Rose Gardens in Oakland for some bloom-filled portraits. See…
I was so excited to get to photograph Baby M for her first birthday, just six months after our last set of family portraits. She’s grown so much in such a short time! We headed to Crissy Field for this session, and although we were blown and battered by the cold wind, we still got…
Elaine and Sean share a love of nature and exploring the outdoors, and they regularly go on long hikes with a nice bottle of wine in tow. After considering many possible locations for their engagement session, they set their hearts on this beautiful spot in Las Trampas Regional Wilderness Park in the East Bay. The…
