About Kim Raff

I am a freelance documentary, editorial and reportage photographer based in Salt Lake City, Utah. After receiving a degree in visual journalism from Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY I went on to a seven-year career in newspapers, which included staff positions with The Salt Lake Tribune and The News & Advance.

I specialize in documentary photojournalism, seeing stories in my own back yard and capturing intimate portraits of the human experience. I love finding beauty in the average moments of life and believe photography has the ability to show us the similarities we all share as people. My craft has drawn me into people's living rooms, pulled me onto mountain tops, and humbled me at gravesides; from the Deep South to the American West.

Available for assignments in or around the mountain west.  Clients include The New York Times, Associated Press and The Wall Street Journal. Past commercial clients include Utah Valley University, Intermountain Healthcare's Primary Children's Hospital and NeighborWorks America.
