Authentic moments and honest connection — captured by a Salt Lake City family photographer, right in your home.

I help families throughout Salt Lake document the beauty of everyday life — right where it happens. With an intentional, heart-led approach, I capture the loud laughs, the soft moments, and the love that lives in between.

Every Hōm Photography session is carefully tailored to reflect your family’s natural rhythm, creating heirloom-quality images that feel true to this season — and timeless enough to pass down.
