VICTORIA + DANIEL | napa valley portraits

Google is awesome. Victoria + Daniel googled me while searching for a photographer to document their trip to Napa Valley in July. They were on holiday (their way of saying vacation =)) all the way from Hong Kong and I was happy to capture some wonderful memories for them in one of my favorite cities. One of the definite perks of my job is meeting new people and it was particularly special that they came…read more

katie + shaun: bridal portrait session

“only girl” Before I share photos from Katie + Shaun’s fabulous wedding, I wanted to share the photos from the bridal portrait session we shot just a few days before their wedding day! I love having the additional time and location to shoot and just hang out with my bride & groom! Sure it helps that Katie is a talented makeup artist and can glam herself up anytime :). From the photos below, you can…read more

“…baby one more time” Meet my old college roomie! Yes we go waaaay back to the UCLA days and although we don’t share a tiny room (no we didn’t have bed bunks but if Joann’s twin bed wasn’t a loft, I bet I could have reached out an touched her) anymore, we still kept in touch a lil’ thing called facebook :). When Joann (Jobay :)) contacted me to take 30th birthday pictures of her…read more

a lil' american girl in Paris.

“fallin’” There’s no other way to say it: I HEART PARIS. And here are just some of the reasons why: Two of my favorite things about Paris :). I miss you Gaetane!

jenny + andrian: wedding portraits

“somebody to love” I have known Andrian for almost 12 years now. We go waaaay back to our Bruin days at UCLA. Andrian and I grew closer while we were Co-Presidents of the Vietnamese Student Union during my senior year (please don’t google any photos – thanks). Since then, Andrian has given me routine eye exams, fed me Korean BBQ, made me listen to the Spanish radio and I have taken his poker money. He…read more

“dear mama” This beautiful mommy-to-be was one of my first (and hottest) boudoir clients ever and I was thrilled when she messaged me and told me she is expecting her first child! I am so happy to see my clients go through various stages in their lives and I am always so honored that they chose me to document them. As you can see from the photographs below, Lana is going to make one hot…read more

“pocketful of sunshine” I really *heart* my clients. I shot Ann & Chris’ wedding 1.5 years ago (wow how time flies) and they have always been some of my biggest supporters. We have kept in touch throughout this time, thanks to modern technologies such as email and facebook and I am so happy to see their family grow in size and love :). Thank you Ann, Chris, Kianna and now Christopher Jr. for being so…read more

meet DJ Z

meet DJ Z

“this DJ” If you have not heard of DJ Z, you will soon. He is seriously good at what he does and I am not just saying that because he is one of my good friends. DJ Z knows how to work the crowd at every party/wedding and his beats are so sick (yes that is my ghetto talk) that I have even found myself bobbing my lil’ head along while working the weddings. They…read more
