We've talked about selling our house and moving to a neighborhood with a better school district since getting pregnant but the thought of cleaning and fixing up the house was just too overwhelming. After 3 months of sitting on the fence about it though, we are making it happen with the help of our realtor … Continue reading 22 Weeks: Selling Our House
I saw her yesterday. She waved at me. I think she did. The idea that she knew who I am made my heart fluttered. Tears came running. Oh no! I am crying again. My vision blurred. But for sure, this time it was happy tears, unlike the last time. I waited for a whole month … Continue reading She Waved At Me
It was Sunday, April 16, 2017 at 4:30pm. We just got home from a 2.5 hr drive from San Jose, after spending 18 days in Asia visiting Japan, Hong Kong and Korea. When I was Hong Kong, the smell of pig intestines at the street stalls made me very uncomfortable. I've been taking my temperature … Continue reading WE’RE PREGNANT
It's 11:20pm and I'm trying to decide if I should go to bed or not. I'm kinda lazy and don't want to walk Jixer but I know I need to. But most importantly, I am soooo hungry that I don't think I can sleep. And lately, when I am hungry, my sense of smell is … Continue reading I’m so hungry
One of our favorite spots in Kyoto is Fushimi Inari Shrine so I think it deserves its own post. Before going, I have always seen photos of the orange pillars that everyone walks through.

Oh well, just have to take the bullet since we can't do much about it anymore. We were stranded on the … Continue reading First Night in Japan
It looks like street photography is becoming a regular activity for me. I love the candidness of it all. To be honest though, taking pictures of random strangers still makes me feel really nervous, especially when I'm walking around with a DSLR and a 90mm macro lens. If you don't know, the 90mm macro lens … Continue reading Downtown Sacramento Street Photography | Part 1
Henry and I are crazy. It's been raining on and off all day so we've been cooped up inside the whole day. Before we went to dinner, I asked if he wanted to walk around afterward, maybe to catch people walking around with their umbrellas in the rain. Not surprisingly, he said yes! It was sprinkling … Continue reading Rainy Night in Downtown Sacramento
Like thin air. Evaporated steam. Forgotten memories. Moments that passed by without notice. Was it even real then since you can't remember it, touch it or feel it? I used to write a lot when I was younger. Keeping diaries of things that happened, boys that I was crushing on and things I that I … Continue reading Forgotten Memories
Wind in my hair. Sunshine on my skin. Raindrops on the windowpane. And pretty clouds after the rain. These are the things that make me feel the happiest. It feels like my life has been consumed with work lately. Ever since quitting my corporate job to be a full-time photographer, I have had a really hard … Continue reading Sunshine After The Rain
