It’s time for December’s recap! So much holiday cheer, a Lean In retreat, and this post doesn’t even include our trips to Maui, Oahu, and Redwood National Park, all of which will come in future posts (hopefully soon-ish). We kick it off with our monthly Office of Accountability meeting, hosted in Meg’s wonderfully decorated apartment,…
It’s become an annual tradition for me to collect small gifts along my travels and to gather them as holiday gifts for my wedding clients. I really love choosing the items as I go and curating these one-of-a-kind packages, never to be repeated from year to year! 2019 was such a full year for travels….
Connection From the start of 2019, I chose “connection” as my theme for the year. Connection is the heart of what makes us human, and yet, I so often resist it, setting it aside for comfort, introversion, and an attempt to protect myself through isolation. I wanted to push myself beyond that and to practice…
The last couple months have been very packed with travels! But we’re catching up now with the November Bay Area recap! First, dinner at the new, much-lauded Nari.

Alexandria and Tom met as juniors at UC Berkeley when they took a film class about monster movies together. They’ve lived together in Berkeley for the decade ever since. When it came time to think about marriage, they decided to forego the big wedding and just invite their family members to join them for a…
Charlie and Chenglong met me in the Presidio after they were wed at City Hall earlier in the day, and we embraced the fog and the wind for a beautifully moody session. Congratulations, Charlie & Chenglong! Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. She creates beautiful, soft, and timeless imagery…
It’s already time for another monthly recap! And this one is going to be a long one, because I was actually in the Bay for almost the entire month, and I was lucky enough to have many little adventures filling all my weeks. We start with a beautiful panoramic view from Tomales Bay! Fresh oysters…
