CAPTURING MOMENTS THROUGH MEMORIES.
Everyone has a remarkable story, let J. Butters Photography tell yours. Our goal is to capture you in the most authentic way all the while creating clean, sharp, and beautiful art for your home and heirlooms for your family.
Capture your moments with artwork that is authentic and beautiful. Treasure your special moments forever at J. Butters Photography where we are passionate about storytelling and love helping you to share your journey for years to come. For over 5 years, I’ve been capturing the most important moments in people’s lives, from engagement, wedding and baby to family, vacation and life.
You can count on High-Resolution and full-frame cameras to beautifully capture every moment with the highest quality and making these photos look as best as they can. Ultimately, a good photograph isn’t just about having the right equipment, it’s also about having a good eye, the passion and the personality behind that equipment.
Every baby, couple, and family are diverse and unique, so I make sure I have an innovative approach each time. Each photo is professionally edited for exposure, color, and contrast.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I love authentic images that are filled with emotion. I love bright colors and warm sunshine. I seek out genuine moments that make me FEEL something.
Most photos are lightly posed, meaning I’ll help get you into place first and then encourage interaction and real expressions while we’re snapping away.
If you want to sum it up in a couple of words, my work is most often categorized as lifestyle photography.
No, I mostly use natural light. This allows me to work quickly and flexibly.
I keep a number of backup dates open each month in case of bad weather, and there is no fee to reschedule to a new date if it’s raining or noncompliant. Utahs weather is notoriously unpredictable and changes very quickly, so I typically wait to call off a session until that morning. Sunshine is a huge component of my style of photography, and it’s definitely worth waiting for a beautiful day!
I love getting to know my clients’ kids, even the ones who are shy/stubborn/you name it! I always approach the session as a new friend who’s just there to play and have a good time. I have all the patience in the world, and I find that being easy-going translates to happy kiddos. That being said, not every moment of the session is perfect, and that’s totally OK — in fact, it’s encouraged! In 10 years, I’m willing to bet that you’ll cherish the image of your toddler crying fake tears just as much as the one that we took 10 seconds later of him happily running toward the camera. My goal is to capture the personalities of the kids in front of my lens, including all of the beautiful quirks, details, and small moments that make up childhood.
I love Pinterest as much as the next girl! But Pinterest is best used as an initial source of inspiration, rather than a strict guideline for your photographer. If we’re focused on recreating someone else’s photos, that will leave us less time to create shots that showcase the unique aspects of your family.
If you do want to use Pinterest to help you plan your session, look at it as general inspiration — for instance, use it to figure out what style of photos you like, and then search for a photographer whose images match that style.
The BEST thing you can do is to let go and enjoy! I know it’s hard not to be stressed before your session, but babies pick up on anxiety really easily. We’ll have the best chance at getting gorgeous images if we let them happen naturally (with a little guidance from me, of course!) I want your pictures to be amazing and will do all the hard work for you! Your only job is to relax and have fun.
I can’t wait to work with you! Please send me a message, and we’ll come up with a game plan for your session. I book up fairly quickly, so, I recommend to get in touch with me as soon as possible. After that, you’ll be able to sign your contract and submit your session deposit. 50% is due upon booking to reserve your date, and the remainder is due on the day of your session.
