Courtney Brandt is the author of a book for young adults called The Line. It’s about the lives of some high school kids who happen to be in the marching band. A self-professed “band geek,” Courtney aimed to give a voice to fellow band geeks of the world through these stories of young love, high […]
Yesterday I spent some time with my new friend Nenah at Lemon Creek Park in Diamond Bar. For the past couple of years, Nenah has been expressing interest in acting and being in commercials, so her grandma asked me to take a few headshots so that she could put together a portfolio for her. I […]

Well, it’s August already. Our one-month wedding anniversary came and went and we are settling into married life quite nicely. The month ahead seems to be quite a relaxed one with only a few photo shoots sprinkled here and there, but come September it is GO, GO, GO all of the time. I honestly can’t […]
Well, despite my hopes and promises, I was not able to blog our honeymoon while in Sydney. Needless to say, I returned home with several hundred images to go through and edit and I have finally finished! We had an amazing time in Sydney despite two thins: Chris got a pretty nasty cold on day […]
Well, we made it! It is currently 5:00 on a Sunday morning here in Sydney and Chris and I are wide awake and ready to go explore. Problem is, it’s still pitch black outside, so we’re trying to kill some time with bad Australian television and $25 per day Internet access. The cost of the […]
Well, the big day I’ve been waiting for has come and gone. Chris and I were married on Friday, July 4th, and I am now Mrs. Heidi Ryder. I now get why they call it “wedded bliss,” because I couldn’t be happier!
Tonight we take off for our honeymoon to Australia so I won’t be posting […]
Faiza is another girl I worked with over at mystyle. When she saw the photos I had taken of Danielle and Davi, she decided she wanted some of her own. She didn’t have a business card in mind for hers, though–instead, Faiza just wanted some nice portraits of herself for no particular reason at all. […]
Heather and I went to high school together but we hadn’t seen each other since graduation day. That was ten years ago and don’t even get me started on how freaked out I am about the fact that I am ten years out of high school. Most days I don’t feel a day over 19. […]

I had the pleasure of meeting Rama and her husband, Ario, over the weekend. I met them at their home for a maternity photo shoot, and while I usually like to scout locations before I shoot there, I liked the idea of a maternity shoot taking place in the comfort of the parents-to-be own home. […]
Here’s another set of headshots from a girl I work with. I actually took Dahvi’s photo for the mystyle Test Drive section and she liked how the one turned out so much that she decided to hire me. That is always nice! I have at least two other headshot sessions confirmed, both of which spawned […]
