This is the third edition of my Norda Family photo sessions! The location hasn’t changed, but the kids just keep growing up and getting taller and even more full of personality. See a few of the highlights below, and glance back at their 2024 and 2021 sessions too. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait…
I love a great surprise proposal, and this one was a true surprise! Samarth did such a wonderful job thinking through not only how to make it a surprise but also how to make sure it was all something that Nikita would love. He lured her to the beautiful gardens at Filoli under the guise…
This little family is just an absolute delight. We ran around the Music Concourse in Golden Gate Park for the morning, and I was very excited that little M even treated us to a bit of his conducting, since he absolutely loves the Golden Gate Park Band that performs here in the bandshell. Such a…
Rachel has been a wonderful friend and client for a few years now, and it’s always so lovely to spend time with her and her hearing dog Rosie. This time we roamed around Land’s End, trekking through dirt and mud and reveling in the most beautiful golden hour. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait…
Welcome to the world, little K! I am absolutely thrilled for this wonderful family, as they are so near and dear to my heart. W is already such a sweet big brother, and little K has been well showered with love from our community. It is truly a joy to be a part of Courtney…
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…
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,…
Jarod and Seohyun have been together for seven years, having met as university students and then moving across Australia and traveling the world together. I helped Jarod to plan this proposal for her while he was at home in Melbourne and I was on the road in Tokyo, for their rather last-minute trip to San…
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….
