I first met Clarissa Wei when she launched her cookbook Made in Taiwan. Now Clarissa is back with not only her second cookbook but also a soy sauce company! Clarissa and Christine cofounded Heydoh one year ago today, and they’ve made a truly delicious soy sauce made from whole Taiwanese black soy beans. While Clarissa…
They met working at the campus bookstore and quickly found themselves concocting ways to spend more time together. It was a whirlwind once they began dating, as they soon moved in together and then bought a house together! Their wedding day was sprinkled with a small amount of DIY chaos, but it was a wonderfully…
The kids get older each year, and the chaos only builds. But we still manage to capture some combination of posed photos and running freeeeeee! Joyce and Keven have reminded me that it’s been 13 years since I photographed them for their wedding. And now here we are, three nephews, two kids, and a brand…
The best weddings have everyone both laughing and crying, and this was indeed the best. Victoria and Nick began their wedding celebrations by inviting both their families to stay with them in a lovely little castle in Mill Valley for the weekend. It was the perfect way to spend some quality time together, and it…
Nikki is a wonderful designer, and I’ve known her for over a decade, as she did my branding back then. It was so wonderful to photograph her and her family while they were visiting from Texas. We met up at Point Lobos for some seaside portraits on their grand road trip along the California coast….
I love the windswept motion captured in these engagement photos, a fitting tribute to the whirlwind romance that took hold of Angela and Lewis when they were supposed to be meeting for a group hike and instead found themselves enjoying a surprise first date, just the two of them, walking and talking across the entire…
This was such a sweet engagement session on a spring morning at Filoli. Plenty of blooms and lots of wonderful areas to explore for this lovely couple. Looking forward to their ceremony later this year! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco, California. She combines a “fine art” aesthetic, with…
Karen and Hadi did not let the rain stop them from some beautiful wedding day portraits at Sutro Baths before their City Hall ceremony. I love these misty, romantic moments against the epic backdrop of the sea. Later, we regrouped inside the beautiful building of San Francisco City Hall for an intimate ceremony with just…
Katherine and Brannon had a wonderful little backyard wedding with their closest family and friends. They had a simple ceremony officiated by a longtime friend, and celebrated with cake and tea, of course, as is the British way. Congratulations, Katherine & Brannon! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco, California….
Congratulations to this little family on their new little cherry! It feels like only yesterday that I was photographing mom and dad for their maternity session, but Cerise, (cherry in French) has now joined in the fun. We walked around the nearby nature preserve at golden hour for some lovely portraits of the whole family….
This was such a wonderful surprise proposal! A lot of proposal clients come to me without a fully formed plan, and that’s totally fine, because I am happy to help them figure out the details. Brandon initially picked a date and time for his proposal about a month out. But as we started chatting, it…
It was so lovely to meet up with my friend and fellow photographer Lindsey while I was down in LA last year. We all headed to Santa Monica Beach, where she photographed my family, and I photographed hers. Such a beautiful bunch, and it was so wonderful to see them all again. Anna Wu is…
