Up in the rolling hills of Mount Tamalpais, we walked and explored, wandering until the sun went down. It was a lovely respite for Kay and Michael, who flew in from Florida for a bit of California adventure. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco.

Apparently what happens in Vegas is sheer magic and serendipity in the form of meeting the love of your life while the two of you are on completely unrelated bachelorette/bachelor parties. Though they didn’t even live in the same cities at the time, Amanda and Moty’s romance was kindled. Amanda soon moved up to the…
After the epic never-ending month of January, February seemed comically short, not least because the second half of my month was spent out of the country. More on that to come, but here is a quick look at my two weeks in the Bay! Lunch with Pam! And a lovely message from Temescal Alley. My…
Pauline wanted a fairytale engagement, and a fairytale engagement she got! We had some Cinderella moments in the woods and the true magic of golden hour at Land’s End.

It was so fun to meet up with Joyce and Keven for their family portraits, especially since I’ve photographed Joyce and Keven for their engagement, wedding, and maternity sessions, and now the two of them have become a family of three! We walked around Lake Merritt in Oakland and caught the best golden hour light…
What an joy to photograph the Sandhu family at their home in Hayward last week. I was honored when Gurkirpal contacted me wanting to capture some portraits of his family in honor of his wife and his 31st anniversary and his mother’s 91st year of life. I met them at their beautiful home in Hayward,…
I’ve had such a jam-packed first month of the year. With Justin’s visit, my birthday party, a weekend retreat, and lots of gatherings with friends, it’s been a wonderful start to 2018. Here’s a little look at what I’ve been up to. We start with a sneak peek from yesterday, the last day of the…
What an incredibly nourishing way to start the year. Our Lean In Circle meets once a month to discuss our personal and professional goals, learning together and supporting each other. But when someone suggested that we should expand our meeting into a weekend retreat, I think we all jumped on the idea. We picked MLK…
There has been a trend of grey wedding albums this year! And we’re continuing it with this lovely book I’m sharing today: Cindy and Jon’s album, with a grey silk cover and their names debossed on the front. They opted for the 8×8″ size, with 40 pages to show off their beautiful photographs inside. Take…
Throwing creative birthday parties for myself has become something of a tradition in the last few years. And since my birthday is in January, it’s also a wonderful way to kick off the new year with a little celebration. This year I was inspired by two of my newfound hobbies from 2017: plants and painting….
I was in the Bay Area for most of December (minus a week in LA), so of course I indulged in the time at home by making things, seeing friends, and also preparing for Tiffany and Greg’s New Year’s Eve wedding! See some of my highlights below. And if you’re curious about my full 2017…
I love how Kim and Chris’ wedding album came together. Since the wedding was filled with neutrals accented with metallics, the beautifully textured grey linen was perfectly paired with rose gold debossing for their album cover. You can see how it catches the light below, and you can see the full flip-through of the album…
