The Queer in Utah project was started in 2019, after witnessing people from my new community in Utah struggle with depression, sometimes even injury by self-infliction. Friends that had to choose between their faith and desires, all rooted in a system of self-doubt from a clash where faith and sexual orientation can’t seem to harmonize. This project aims to help normalize the LGBTQ+ community in the conservative setting of Utah by portraying these couples in affectionate poses, and a local outdoor setting, similar to the dominant imagery found framed in the households of heterosexual couples.
