Hi there. Love that you're here and interested in silly ole Tay. First, here's my belief and approach when it comes to documenting you wonderful people... I believe the best photos are the ones where you're simply living. Those are the photos you can FEEL; looking back at them when you're one day an old fart. The fun, the chaotic, the nostalgic (grainy photos do that to ya), the accidental blurry shots; it's ALL MAGIC.
I, of course, still shoot the posed, creative stuff but 1000% love to capture you in your element and just existing exactly as you are.
Can't wait to meet you.
xx, Taylor

about Taylor Photo Co.
If you haven't already been able to tell... I'm obsessed with my english bulldog, Bruce. My whopping 65 pound boi!! So much that he's part of my business branding. lol. I'm a huge lover of animals and he's my first baby. One goal of mine is to one day have a lil homestead with lots of animals to tend to.
I may reside in Salt Lake City, UT. but I'm a huge traveler. I've lived out of the country twice and visited a dozen others. My dream is to one day move to either Ireland or Scotland and be a destination/elopement photographer for couples that love moody, dreamy weather and have my same adventurous spirit.
Music is a HUGE part of my life. Listening to it AND playing it. I've played the cello since I was 8 years old and learned piano by ear (thanks to learning cello by the suzuki method). I played in orchestra's all through elementary, middle school, high school, and some college. I picked up the guitar when I was 24 living in London and am now a proud owner of three. Can't be stopped!
FUN FACT: Anne Boleyn was beheaded on my birthday.
a little
about
my life
Well, let's start with my pops. I grew up watching him have a camera in hand at all times. He was always documenting and capturing moments for our family. I loved that. I started dabbling with his camera back in middle school. Circa 2007. At the age of 14 I started taking on the "memory keeper" role in the family -- I had just entered high school and started taking photography classes enhancing my interest in the craft. Once I became an adult, all I wanted to do was get the hell outta dodge and travel! Years of learning how cameras, lighting, and people work all over the world, I started my biz, Taylor Photo Co.
I have a cinematic mindset that I bring to my photography. "Motion is my motto" is a common phrase I use and I love capturing the slow moments that we experience in life.
As far as film/video goes, I was first introduced to that when I was teaching english abroad in Ukraine. Odd, I know. Another Americian teacher and I went out to the Ukrainian forest to do a fun little music video (where we lip sync to a song and it's incredibly cringe) BUT! It started my passion and love for video. Don't ask to see it. I promise I don't have it. ;)
I’ve been filming weddings since 2015 and photographing weddings since 2019. I love connecting with my couples/clients and bonding over things like Downton Abbey and sushi.

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Taylor as my photographer multiple times over the years, and each session was an absolute pleasure. Her ability to capture intimate and candid moments is simply magical. From couples’ photos to boudoir sessions, she creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease.
Her talent for capturing the true essence of a moment is truly beautiful. The way she handles light and composition adds a touch of magic to every photograph. Each image she captures tells a unique story, filled with emotions and authenticity.
I was particularly impressed by how comfortable she made me feel during my boudoir session. It can be a vulnerable experience, but her professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire process enjoyable and empowering. The end result was a collection of stunning images that I will treasure for a lifetime.
Not only is Taylor incredibly talented, but she is also a blast to work with! Her friendly and approachable nature instantly makes you feel like you’re working with a trusted friend. She listens attentively to your ideas and vision, ensuring that every photo reflects your personality and style.
I wholeheartedly recommend Taylor as a photographer. Her warm and intimate style, coupled with her genuine passion for her craft, sets her apart. If you’re looking to capture precious moments and create lasting memories, she is the one to trust.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Taylor, both personally and professionally. She is so kind, warm and personable. We hired her to do our Engagement photos and our Wedding day. The booking process was easy.. she had reasonable pricing and great communication. When it came to the day of, which was hectic and chaotic, she wrangled the bridal party so well. Took posed and candid photos and really captured the day exactly how we envisioned it to be, full of warmth and love.”
