About
 


My name is Ana Brandt . I currently live in Tustin Ranch, California and have lived here for over 9 years. We moved here in 1999 from the East Coast. Born and raised in New York, I am much happier living in warmer weather. As an adopted child I have no photos of those early years and certainly none from my biological mother. It is the driving force behind my business. I believe every child should be able to look back when they are older as to who they were as a child, as well as the relationship they had with their family. Whether someone is 2 or 97 - imagery is important. It is what makes our history.

After moving here to start a family, I did not have one single client in California. Year by year I built my business, and my current client list is well over 1500. I concentrate on portraiture - starting at the pregnancy stage and moving through life. I have chosen to teach workshops on the art of pregnancy and newborn, because I felt there was a need for this area. So many questions, so many details. It's hard to remember everything as you go along. So I am here to help, guide, mentor and learn and grow with my students. I believe photography grows with you as you grow. No one knows it all and we all make mistakes. If we can all help each other out, and grow with each other, it makes for a stronger community and a common shared goal.
So join me. Let's grow together!

My studio is in Tustin, California. Located in the center of Old Town Tustin, it is a 1500 sq foot retail storefront. I provide in studio sessions all year long, as well as on location sessions such as the beach, park and clients homes. I have had the pleasure of being  in some of the finest homes in Orange County at the clients request to capture those precious moments.



I have three children - 3, 5 and 7 that keep me quite busy! My 7 year old is a self proclaimed artist and would like to have a studio next to mine one day. He took this photo this last Fall in Huntington Gardens, Pasadena. My 5 year old is a beautiful little girl with a creative spirit as well. She colors from morning, noon to night and never tires! My third - the baby - still - even though she is three - is a singer. She sings from morning noon to night! She has about 40 songs in her head and some I haven't heard for 30 years! Lastly, my husband - a writer and the man behind my written words keeps our house together. As a family we like to bike ride, go to the beach and just hang out! I personally love to horseback ride - though its been awhile! And I like to create. Whether its making handmade cards, painting a canvas or coming up with crafts for my kids, we all keep pretty busy!
