Welcome!

Welcome to my page!  Thanks for stopping by and viewing my work!  Ryder Photography offers photography services from weddings to newborns.   

I am Jessica your photographer! I'm a mom, coffee drinker, and a lover of traveling and outdoors.  I've lived here in Shenandoah Valley my entire life and love I get to call the mountains my home.​

My passion for photography has grown greatly over the last decade since I started my business in 2010. I love capturing everything from those first few days of your newborn's life to watching you walk down the aisle on your wedding day. From baby toes to first kiss as husband and wife, I love it all!

I have a studio where I capture my babies and newborns in Harrisonburg, VA. I have plenty of room for mom, dad, and siblings and will happily incorporate family into newborn sessions.  For larger groups and family session I have many locations in the area I love to use or would be happy to come to you!  
​

I am so happy and blessed that I am able to do what I love for a living! I know how important photographic memories are to me and I strive to capture images that you will cherish and pass down to your children and grandchildren one day.   My goal is to create photos for you that will last a lifetime and bring back happy memories every time you look at them.  Take a look around and feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a consultation to discuss your photography needs.  I look forward to working with you!
