We’ve had some truly unforgettable moments in the studio and on location but few compare to welcoming not just one, but two incredible women from The Real Housewives of Orange County for stunning photography and memorable portrait sessions that celebrate confidence, grace, and true feminine power.
A Bold & Beautiful Boudoir Session with Emily Simpson
We were absolutely thrilled to host the radiant Emily Simpson in our studio for an empowering boudoir experience. From the moment Emily walked in, her vibrant energy lit up our studio. Her confidence was magnetic, and it set the perfect tone for her boudoir session.
Every detail was carefully curated from selecting wardrobe pieces that flattered her gorgeous curves to designing lighting that highlighted her natural beauty.
Throughout the shoot, Emily embodied empowerment. This session wasn’t just about capturing beauty; it was a celebration of strength and embracing every stage of life with grace. Watching her confidence blossom during her shoot was truly inspiring.
We can’t wait for you to see the magic we created. This session is one you won’t want to miss!
Heather Dubrow’s Classic Beauty Session at Victoria Beach
Next, we’d like to highlight the elegant Heather Dubrow. A longtime Orange County must-see destination, Heather brought her beauty and poise to Victoria Beach. This is one of my absolute favorite outdoor shoot locations for capturing gorgeous portraits. Nothing beats the backdrop of sun and golden cliffs.
The portraits you see below are timeless and graceful, with each frame capturing Heather’s effortless aura and vibrant energy. The ocean breeze, soft sunset light, and Heather’s stunning couture gown came together in perfect harmony.
During this classic beauty shoot, Heather reminded us all that beauty isn’t just about appearance. It’s about presence, confidence, and living unapologetically as you are.
From in-studio boudoir glam to beachy Southern California charm, both Emily and Heather from The Real Housewives of OC showed us that your portraits are about feeling gorgeous in your own skin and embracing your personal journey.

The day was nothing short of spectacular as we worked meticulously to capture Emily’s essence and celebrate her stunning natural beauty.
From the moment Emily walked in, her confidence and humorous nature set the tone for a fun session. We spent time perfecting the lighting and selecting sets that would truly showcase her unique features.
One of the standout choices was a gorgeous olive canvas backdrop, which perfectly complemented Emily’s stunning hazel eyes and added a touch of class to the shoot.
Throughout the session, Emily exuded empowerment and grace. It was a joy to see her embrace this new chapter with such enthusiasm and self-assurance. The experience was more than just a photo shoot; it was a celebration of her beauty, strength, and personal growth.

For more than 30 years, I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to help families of all shapes and sizes, and from all walks of life, capture their love for each other in gorgeous family portraiture. It didn’t take me long to realize that I wasn’t just taking family portraits, I was capturing priceless memories and their journey of growth together. Being a part of these moments brings me so much joy: from Boudoir sessions with brides in love to engagement sessions with couples; from maternity and newborn sessions to growing family portrait shoots – each session reminds me of the beauty and love that is unique to each family.
Something I always try to keep in mind when photographing families is that no two families are alike in the ways they express love. Each family has its own unique style, series of inside jokes, list of traditions, and shared dreams. Capturing their story and the individualized bond between family members is my goal as a photographer. Through our discovery and planning process, I customize each session based on your family’s one-of-a-kind connection, taking into consideration things like hobbies, preferred location, and even favorite memories together. I also make sure to consider your home decor, because where’s the fun in a family portrait if you can’t hang it anywhere? Your family’s smiling faces deserve to be the focal point in your home, acting as a daily reminder of your moments of joy together.
These moments are precious, but they go by too quickly. Before you know it your newborn will be walking, your toddler will be starting middle school, and the freshman in high school will suddenly be a freshman in college. Make sure to savor these moments while you can.

By the time we hit July, most people are over the sun-kissed, watermelon-sorbet, beach-vibes. We’re racing indoors for the sweet relief of air conditioning and taking shopping sprees to find clothing that won’t immediately absorb every drop of sweat (or, at least won’t show it). We’re fighting to still feel self-confident while drenched in sweat and realizing our shorts might not fit as well as they did last summer.
The illusion of a “hot girl summer” has seemed to fade and left us trying to just make it through the hottest months of the year.

This stunning client, Dr. Nancy came to us last year to do a Lux 4-Look Boudoir Session in our studio and one of her looks included our new Vanity Fair set that complimented her beautiful, athletic body so well.
Nancy and Lori had such a wonderful connection and she loved her experience so much, she couldn’t wait to come back. After she viewed her images, she exclaimed that Lori will be her photographer for life!
Since Nancy was last in the studio, she went through a 90-day health challenge that she created. Her results were incredible and she was so proud, so she wanted to celebrate her accomplishments with another 4-look boudoir/classic beauty session.
This time we used our newly renovated white room, along with a few other sets with new props and then took her to the yellow wild flowers with our new vintage peacock chair for her final look.
She has also chose Lori to take her Business and Branding images for website, social media and book release (more of that to come later)!
Here’s what she had to say about the session:
“Lori Brystan and her fantastic team at Brystan Studios are simply the best of the best. I am so impressed each time we work on a project together. Her photographs are artistic, top notch quality, and each frame tells a beautiful story that flows and creates a priceless memory. Lori’s creative eye and ability to translate what you desire conceptually is mind blowing. I can’t say enough about the experience you have from the moment you sit in her brainstorming session to the time you get your finished photographs in hand published in a gorgeous book. If you want the best, choose Lori Brystan.” – Nancy
We love seeing our clients grow and evolve, and then come to use to capture these transformative moments in their lives. Whether it’s only a few months or a few years apart, it is so special to be apart of each of your lives. We thank you for coming to us to celebrate who you are!
