Meet Sharise Gepford
Utah Family & Engagement Photographer
Hey, I’m Sharise — a laid-back, animal-loving photographer based in beautiful Utah County. I specialize in capturing families, couples, and real-life moments that feel natural, connected, and uniquely you.
My sessions are interactive and relaxed — no stiff poses or awkward silences here. Whether we’re chasing golden light in the mountains or sharing laughs in your living room, I’m all about creating a comfortable space where you can be yourselves and actually have fun.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m probably curled up with a good book, rewatching my favorite movies, or hanging out at home with my husband, our dog, three cats, and even a snake (yep, we’re a full house!).
If you’re looking for a photographer who keeps things real, relaxed, and full of heart — I’d love to connect.
FAQ
Do you travel for photoshoots?
Yes! A travel fee may apply depending on the location of the photoshoot. For some locations the only fee for the shoot will be the travel costs.
What should we wear for our session?
- Stick to neutral or earthy tones. These colors photography beautifully in natural light.
- Avoid bold logos or busy patterns
- Coordinate, don't match. Pick 2-3 complementary colors and build outfits around those.
- Textures and layers are your friend. Knits, linen, denim, and flowy fabrics add depth and movement.
- Make sure you're comfortable! If your shoes are pinching or you think a shirt is too tight or too loose, you'll be focused on that rather than getting a beautiful photo.
If you're still unsure, feel free to reach out! I'm happy to offer suggestions and advice.
How long does it take to get our photos?
You will receive 2-3 sneak peek photos within 48 hours. The full edited album will be emailed to you within 2 weeks of your session.
Do you offer albums or prints?
Not yet, but I will be coming soon. On my website you will be able to access a store to print your albums, photos, or other fun photo gifts.
