Meet Tess: Your Utah Photography Expert

I’m Tess Murdock, the heart behind Photos by Tess, and I’ve been turning life’s fleeting moments into forever keepsakes for over 11 years. Based in the heart of Salt Lake City, I travel across Utah—from Ogden to Orem—to bring my lens to your story. Whether it’s the butterflies of your wedding day, the laughter of a family outing, the tender glow of a maternity session, the delicate details of your newborn’s first days, or the joy of celebrations like graduations and baptisms, I’m here to make every memory shine. With over 1,000 events photographed, I’ve honed a style that blends candid emotion with timeless elegance, ensuring your photos feel as authentic as the moments they hold.
My approach is all about connection—I get to know you and your vision, so every session feels effortless and fun. I make every shoot fun and easy. Parents love my knack for keeping kids engaged, and couples adore how I catch their unguarded love. My clients often say I’m their go-to for life’s milestones. Ready to turn your special moments into art? Let’s connect and create something beautiful together—I can’t wait to be part of your journey!
