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…
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…
Sixteen adults, three kids, and a pup. We roamed a small park in Fremont and photographed every permutation and combination of this four-generation family, but no matter what grouping or order you put them in, what comes out is love. Such a joy to document these special gatherings of family over the holidays! First, the…
Yes or Yes! This was such a sweet surprise proposal. Darren knew that Yue would suspect that a proposal was coming, because they had already gone ring shopping together. Plus, she knew they had a reservation for The French Laundry where they had dined once before. But he still had some surprises up his sleeve….
What an incredibly sweet and stunning session! Miranda and Felix booked me for their engagement session before finding out that they actually live just one floor above me in the same building in San Francisco. Such a small world. I absolutely loved getting to photograph them out at Fort Funston, a familiar spot to their…
I first met Lesley years ago, and she told me back then that she loved my work and would someday hire me for her wedding. That was incredibly nice and flattering, but sometimes people just say things! Especially since Lesley lives on the East Coast and I have always been here in California, I didn’t…
