It is such an honor to be asked by a fellow photographer to photograph their family. I was delighted to meet Cassie’s parents and her sister on their long anticipated visit to San Francisco. We hiked up Bernal Hill for some golden hour magic! Dad and Rusty share a special bond. Of course they needed…
It was wonderful to meet Erin and Duc, for their engagement session over at Land’s End and Sutro Baths. Thanks to the Monday session, we had the place virtually to ourselves, and we also got lucky with the most beautiful golden hour light. See a few of my favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding…
Last year, in the midst of shelter-in-place, I set out with a group of photographer friends to work on a collaborative art project titled Isolayered. As we have since returned to some version of normalcy and then gone back towards isolation again, I’m reflecting on the beauty and the difficulty of community when connection becomes…
I would say that July was the month we quickly rushed out into the world, before quietly being ushered back into our homes. We had been fully vaccinated for over a month already, and started expanding our social circles and reclaiming old things like indoor dining, photographing full weddings, and going maskless. But then with…
I am pleased to present the first wedding album of this year, Cynthia and Erik’s! We got to debut a new font for the cover, since my album company has now presented a slew of new font options. In addition to the debossed names and date, Cynthia and Erik selected the turquoise silk for the…
As you may recall, I held a socially distanced shibori birthday party back in January with friends participating from five time zones across four countries. We each had shibori (indigo) dye kits and dyed quilt squares, which were then mailed back to me so I could create a community-made quilt, like a warm hug from…
What a wonderful feeling to be back in San Francisco City Hall for a wedding. Stepping under the grand dome after a year away was such a treat, and even more so for the couples who now get to be married in this magnificent place! I was honored to photograph Sue-Jean and Steven’s ceremony and…
I loved meeting Mansi and Wes and trekking all over town for this fun engagement session. We covered a lot of ground, from Jackson Square through Chinatown and up to North Beach. San Francisco is still relatively new to these two, with Mansi having only joined Wes here right at the start of the pandemic,…
Events are back! I was honored be back for the third time photographing the Industry “House Party” at The Pearl. This time, after a long hiatus, we were celebrating the return of the events at this San Francisco venue. See a few of the highlights below! Guests entered through School Night, the bar/restaurant adjacent to…
I met up with this beautiful family for some portraits in Buena Vista Park on a very sunny afternoon. Little R is getting ready to become a big brother! Congratulations to the whole family on the big life changes ahead. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work…
I’ve known Joyce pretty much since she was born, since our families were friends and we grew up occasionally meeting up in random parts of Michigan for holidays together. Although our mothers are still close friends, all of us kids have only kept loose tabs on each other since, so it was such an honor…
June! The month in which everything returned, all at once. We got to start the month with our first in-person Accountability meeting since the beginning of 2020! What an incredible feeling. We even got to hug people and meet Nicole’s puppy in real life. Such beautiful bounty from Stephanie’s garden. And Courtney and her baby…
