This precious baby was all smiles for me during this newborn session. Hard to believe he is about to celebrate being 100 days old. And he is still as smiley as ever. While my previous post was of a newbie who arrived just after our return from the US, this little spud arrived just before...

london | shanghai newborn photographer
Had the privilege of photographing this handsome young fellow last weekend. His timing was perfect — first, arriving right after my return to China, so I could catch him at 11 days old. Then his parents said he was up quite a bit the night before. Perhaps not so fun for mom and dad, but...
family portrait
Yes, it has been a while. Life has been full. Not sure I am ready for summer to end. We spent the past couple months in the US with family and friends. We traveled to the West Coast, East Coast, South, and Midwest. Perhaps a bit ambitious with three young ones – but we survived...
living on the edge
a partial glimpse at my “kaykay” fearless, explorer, determined, active, resourceful… whenever we walk this stretch in our neighborhood, she exclaims “钓鱼! 钓鱼!” (fishing! fishing!) we find a fallen willow tree branch, she takes it and proceeds to “fish”.

fleeting
People ask me how it is taking care of three kids. It’s kind of like this… The other day, it was a nice day out. I successfully got the 2 little ones all ready to go out and pick up big sister from the school bus stop on time. And i thought after picking her...
strawberry fields forever
Went strawberry picking earlier this week. This has started to become a happy annual tradition. We picked almost 10 pounds of strawberries… and probably had almost as much in our tummies. Last year, kaylah was still strapped in the bjorn. This year, she got to join in on the fun too, and ate the most strawberries out...
H is for Honored | Asuka Book of the Month
Thought I’d take a break from the newborn photos and show some of my older two. I have mentioned before here that I took up a personal photo project last year with another friend to make an ABC Book for my girls. Well, I finally did finish it and am so happy that I did. Aside...
