Honest, timeless storytelling for families who Value Connection
Documenting your family’s with imagery, preserving the moments that define this season of your .
story
connection
intentional
You know the moments... the quiet closeness, the laughter that catches you off guard, the way your child reaches for you without thinking. They may not be perfectly composed, but they are deeply meaningful. These are the seasons that pass quickly, and they deserve to be remembered with honesty and intention.
The photographer behind Elaina Noelani Photography.
Family is central to my work. I believe the seasons you’re living right now deserve to be documented with honesty and intention, creating images that feel lasting and true.
When I’m not photographing families, I’m homeschooling my two daughters, Taryn and Carly. Since 2017, I’ve worked with families who value connection over perfection. Now based in Utah, I photograph growing families with a focus on natural interaction and timeless imagery.
What Matters Most to You?
- You value real connection more than a perfectly curated image.
- You want to remember this season honestly — even if it isn’t always easy.
- You’re willing to trust the process and allow your child to set the pace.
- You understand that meaningful photographs come from presence, not perfection.

If this feels aligned, I’d love to work with you.

"Each time it amazes me that Elaina captures the pictures she does! At our family picture session my daughter was not being the smiley baby you want in your family pictures but Elaina still caught them between cries! She is super sweet and easy to work with, she knows what she's doing and gives guidance for posing! I highly recommend her and can't wait to continue to have her catch all these wonderful memories for my little family!"

I had such an incredible time with Elaina this morning at the Tulip Festival. She made shooting at 5:45 in the morning so FUN! She’s incredibly easy to work with, has a speedy turn around process, and is truly just a ray of sunshine. I cannot wait to work with her again
