Mimi and Nick were wed in a private vow ceremony before hosting a tea ceremony and lunch reception for their closest family, and then a full Chinese banquet for their larger communities. I joined them at their home as they got ready together before embarking on the other two parts of their day. All in…
Bay Area sports fans, and Giants fans in particular, might just recognize the mama of this family– Emmy-winning sports anchor Laura Britt! It was an absolute delight to meet Laura and to photograph her whole family. We got a gorgeous sun-kissed backdrop atop this rather steep but quite beautiful hill in the East Bay. Anna…
Ten years ago, I photographed K for a boudoir session, celebrating and capturing her body as it was at that time, before she planned to have children. This year she reached out to me under quite different circumstances, though her impulse to document and celebrate a changing body remains much the same. K was diagnosed…
This was an incredibly sweet mini session for Shiela and Tommy, who are expecting their firstborn very soon. We had Shiela scaling the sand dunes at Ocean Beach, but we lucked out with such a beautiful day, calm skies, and the perfect backdrop for these timeless portraits in a time of anticipation.

It is such an honor to photograph a fellow photographer! And this little family was especially a delight, with the exuberance of their eldest daughter contrasted with her absolutely unfazed baby sister, haha. What a joy! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work at annawu.com, follow her…
This is a very fun family to photograph. I last photographed them three years ago, when the youngest was just a baby. Now she’s wearing the dress her big sister wore last time. The setting is the same, but the kids are all growing up and filling out their irrepressible personalities! Anna Wu is…
A huge congratulations to Ellie Yang Camp on the launch of her remarkable book, Louder than the Lies! In a frank, conversational manner, Ellie offers such important insight and inspiration for Asian Americans on identity, solidarity, and self-love. I was so happy to be able to photograph two of her Bay Area book launch events….
It has been three years since I photographed Jia and Suyash (and Leia the Corgi) for their wedding in the redwoods. This time they’re back with a new family member in tow! Little M was quite the charmer. I loved getting to spend some with all of them at this little park in Mission Bay….
Earlier this summer I hosted my Taiwanese American Cookbook Club featuring A-Gong’s Table, an entirely vegan Taiwanese cookbook by George Lee with photography by Laurent Hsia. We all really enjoyed the cookbook and the chance to explore Taiwanese food through a vegan lens. I was then lucky enough to be in both New York and…
Eleven years of photographing this two and three years with the little one too! I absolutely love getting to watch these little ones grow up and am so honored to be asked back to document these moments, year after year. This time we returned to the San Francisco Botanical Garden for some portraits and chasing…
Back in the spring, I got to attend the Oakland A’s Taiwan Day, which has been an annual occurrence at the Coliseum for several years now. The San Francisco Giants finally decided to join in on the fun, hosting their very first Taiwanese Heritage Night this fall. And to double up on the festivities, they…
I am so delighted to share this little mini session with the Chiang Family and McClellan Ranch in Cupertino. It was such a warm and beautiful day, and everyone was looking wonderful in their summer-to-fall outfits. Even Freddie the doggo matched the vibe perfectly! See a few of my favorites below. Anna Wu is…
