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…
One long year after their intimate wedding ceremony atop Tiburon, Yannie and Howard were finally able to celebrate their marriage with the rest of their family and friends at their original venue in Sonoma. It was a beautiful day, full of special moments between loved ones so grateful for the chance to gather together. Even…
I am so incredibly grateful for the community of women that I have here in San Francisco. There are so many people, local or not, who have held me up through the pandemic, but over and over again, it’s Cassie, Courtney, and Do-Hee who are always, unceasingly there for me — and for each other….
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,…

Guests entered through School Night, the bar/restaurant adjacent to…

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…
It has been quite the journey to get to this wedding celebration for Candace and Derek, but they have remained incredibly thoughtful and intentional with their choices every step of the way. Thanks to their considerate design and considerable patience, were all so lucky to be able to gather safely for both a casual, outdoor…
May was a whole lot of shuttling back and forth between our two homes, in San Francisco and the South Bay. Plus, we completed our vaccines and worked our way to some sense of normalcy! First, bagels from Daily Driver. And a homemade tri tip sandwich, with tri tip that Alex smoked. At the house,…

See some favorites below. Anna Wu is a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Francisco. View her work at…
