Absolutely thrilled with our photos!

gh poses—super helpful since we're not naturals in front of the camera. Communication throughout the whole process was smooth and efficient, no back-and-forth hassle at all.
The final photos exceeded our expectations. They even edited out passersby so we could be the sole focus in each shot, which made a huge difference. Highly recommend!
We highly recommend “Another Lu” Wedding Photography Experience!
Our wedding photography experience with “Another Lu” was truly beyond expectations. From the initial communication...
to the photo shoot day and the final images, everything was smooth, professional, and thoughtfully handled.
We chose three stunning locations: Legion of Honor, Torpedo Wharf, and Marina Drive. Another Lu was extremely familiar with all three locations and knew exactly how to use the scenery, architecture, and lighting to create breathtaking shots.
Legion of Honor -
The architecture here is very elegant. The photographer did an amazing job using its natural light, and the photos came out cinematic and timeless.
Torpedo Wharf & Marina Drive -
These locations were such a surprise. The combination of ocean views and the bay bridge gave the photos a storytelling feel. Although the fog were very dense, and super windy on that day, Another Lu still captured so many beautiful moments that we absolutely love. The team timed everything perfectly, and the final images feel romantic, soft, and dreamy, exactly what we envisioned for our wedding photos.
The entire shoot was fun, relaxed, and stress-free. Another Lu guided us naturally through all poses. We had so much fun and laughter through out the whole time. Most importantly, the final photos brought us smiles to our faces. We loved every single images. This was more than just a photo shoot; it was a wonderful memory we’ll always treasure.

We feel very lucky that we found Another Lu Photography to capture our wedding this past June. From the start, even before we signed the contract, we could not have asked for more ...
responsive and helpful communication. That didn't change after we signed - same great service continued, including setting our rather complicated timeline, always informative and helpful and reassuring, never pushy. Nan even went to our venue in advance on her own time to map out the best flow for the different areas where we wanted portraits!
On the day of, Nan was like a ghost through our ceremony and reception - hardly noticeable even though from her photos it was clear she was dashing this way and that to capture the key moments from different vantage points.
My now-wife and I love our photos and will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We couldn't be more happy to have found such a skilled photographer with a unique (gorgeous and elevated) point of view.

We had a lot of ideas for both our initial engagement shoot and our wedding and Nan seemed more than happy to go back and forth, offering new ideas and refinements. We really appreciated how thorough and responsive she was, especially amongst the stress of wedding planning!
During all of our photoshoots, Nan and Jamie were such a pleasure to work with - they came prepared and helped guide us in taking nice photos. They made us feel comfortable, and we had a ton of fun trying out the poses they suggested :)

We recently had the pleasure of working with Nan and Jamie at AnotherLu Photography for our CityHall wedding - and we couldn't be happier with our experience.
From our initial con...
sultation, they were attentive, compassionate, and empathetic - actively listening to our needs and preferences, showcasing professionalism and exceptional communication from the start.
They were wonderfully patient, communicating clearly at every step. A week before the wedding, they provided a detailed preparation checklist, and again 3 days in advance, they shared helpful itinerary - those are invaluable guide that helped us stay calm and organized as our big day approached.
On the day itself, Nan was attentive and caring - guiding us into poses, calming nerves, and ensuring we stayed relaxed.
Their photos are nothing short of breathtaking - beautifully composed, skillfully retouched, and capturing the heartfelt moments we cherish.

Jamie are amazing, absolutely a pleasure to work with! They are professional with a lot of expertise and warmth. They scheduled calls with me to make sure they know exactly what I want for my wedding day. Another gave us a lot directions, as well as made us feel comfortable, made us laugh to ease the nerves. The photographies were beyond our expectations even though we already had high expectations for her from the beginning. Another captured all of the special and unique moments in such a beautiful way. I recommend Another to anyone and everyone! If you need a reliable photographer, Another Lu it is!

for putting people at ease and capturing genuine emotions, resulting in photos that truly reflect the joy and love of our special day.

xible with us moving around to 3 different locations to capture many great moments from our special day. Highly recommended!
My husband and I feel fortunate that we found Another Lu. I'm sure that every couple struggles to find a photographer who can truly understand and care about unique needs. In the b...
eginning, we had to communicate what we wanted and what we envisioned. I believe that this process is a key to success when it comes to wedding photos. Her willingness to listen to our needs and vision helped us to trust her.
As my husband and I planned an intimate outdoor wedding in a redwood forest, there were no extravagant decorations or nice set-up for photo shooting. However, I was amazed by her photos. She instinctively understood what we envisioned without much guidance, and caught our special moments successfully. Her post-editing of the photos was beautifully done. I believe that her rate is very reasonable. Overall, I was very happy with her and her work.
I can't believe how great our wedding photos are!
Nan and their assistant were the absolute best to work with!
From capturing the random little moments to helping us find cute po...
ses and encouraging us to be silly, Nan was the best and brought so much joy to our wedding day!
We had a pretty loose idea of what photos we wanted on our wedding day. We had planned a few location shoots and a few different series of photos at the wedding but we didn't have a strong plan or vision for what we wanted. Nan was great at taking our rough idea of what we wanted and making it perfect! Especially once we got to our venue and totally forgot about all of the photo shoots we had talked about doing. Nan was great at rolling with the punches and helping us make sure we got the pics we wanted.
Thanks again Nan for helping to make our day so special and fun!
High quality photos, easy to communicate, high standard work!
My wife and I hired Another to photograph our wedding reception and ceremony on 3/26/23 and are so glad we did. Another was very professional and easy to reach. She met with us bef...
orehand to get an idea what we wanted and explain her entire process. She even went above and beyond and showed up at our rehearsal to scope out the venue to get an idea of the layout. Another captured or special day beautifully and the pictures turned out great! I would recommend Another to anyone looking for a wedding or event photographer in the Bay.
Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for Nan and her assistant, Jamie for the incredible work they did as our wedding photographer team. From the moment we met, it was clear ...
that they genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our love story. Their warm and friendly approach made us feel comfortable and allowed us to be our authentic selves in front of the camera. Throughout the entire planning process, Nan went above and beyond to understand our vision and ensure that every shot reflected our personalities and the emotions we experienced on that day.
Nan is not just a photographer but a storyteller who has a remarkable ability to capture the emotions, beauty, and essence of a couple's wedding day. Her team’s passion, creativity, and dedication shine through in every photograph. We are forever grateful for their incredible work, which has provided us with a treasure trove of memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Without a doubt, we wholeheartedly recommend Nan to anyone seeking a talented photographer who will capture the true essence of their love story.

pher! Our photos were amazing! She is a great photographer and her team was very responsive and so helpful in setting up the timeline for the day. She knew exactly where to go for pictures in SF and truly made our day special.
With any photographer, it is always best to meet with them in person before the wedding going over your expectations and desires for the photos! I did that with Nan, it was so helpful!
