Jill came to me wanting to document this very precious time with their baby boy, as he is adorable and just bubbling with personality. She also especially loves fall and Halloween, so it was the perfect time to capture these moments in this very fleeting season of life. Bat boy and bat dog! So cute….
I loved meeting this wonderful family on a perfectly sunny morning at Filoli. They are expecting their third little boy and had never done a single professional photo session before, though you would never know it, as they were all so easy to photograph! Here are just a few favorites below. Anna Wu is…
I was so delighted to photograph this family again, as they get ready to welcome a new addition very soon. I first photographed J & S (and their pup Leia) for their beautiful two-part wedding celebrations and got to meet little M last year when she was just beginning to toddle around. This time we…
Hannah reached out to me, loving my portraits of couples set in a vast landscape. We chose Mount Tamalpais for her engagement session with Ben to capture just that: a beautiful couple, in love, amidst the epic expanse of the hills, the fog, and the city they call home, off in the distance. And of…
Maya and Jason first met in college over a decade ago, and they have since lived so much life together, moving across the country to her hometown on the East Coast and then to his on the West Coast. They are now embarking on the next chapter of their lives, united and together for good,…
What an honor to photograph three generations of this beautiful family, all together! I was delighted to meet the newest member of Annsa and Arvind’s family, though he may have been more hesitant to meet me. The very windy day didn’t help much. But the images still turned out beautifully! A few of my favorites…
What an absolute delight to photograph this wedding for Cassandra and Walter! Cassandra was actually my photography intern more than a decade ago. She assisted me on all sorts of weddings and other sessions and learned some of my workflow and editing processes behind the scenes as well. It was so fun to catch up…
2024 was a very full year, packed with adventures near and far and projects large and small. We traveled to Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Taos, New Mexico for a ski trip in February. We visited Tampa Bay and Miami for baseball stadiums number 25 and 26 in April and Kansas City for the 27th in September….
December recap! We actually began the month in Los Angeles and ended it in Taipei. But here are some of our adventures around the Bay in between. Our new-old Barbour jackets we got from Goodfight! Mine a re-loved and Alex’s is new. Time to go pick up our very first fake Christmas tree. The Garrisons…
Each year, I collect small gifts along my travels and compile them into a holiday gift set for my wedding clients. It’s my way of sharing a small part of my year with my couples when they’ve shared such an important part of theirs with me. Here’s a little peek at what I sent out…
It was such a delight to photograph Tracey’s book event at the adorable Books on B in Hayward. Tracey is a certified leadership coach, who has now turned her coaching wisdom into her debut book, The Magic of Knowing What You Want. I love seeing a community come together in support of one of its own….
I photographed K amidst her cancer treatments last year, documenting her body after chemotherapy and before her mastectomy. I just wanted to share the little black book we created from that session– an addition to the quite different little black book with first made for her boudoir session years ago. We chose a simple black…
