PASSPORT READY
LIVING PROOF THAT DREAM JOBS DO EXIST
TRAVEL AND THE OUTDOORS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MY BIGGEST SOURCE OF INSPIRATION. THANKS TO MY GRANDPARENTS, I SPENT MOST OF MY WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS GROWING UP IN A CAMPER, BOUNCING AROUND THE COUNTRY. THAT CURIOSITY STUCK WITH ME. THESE DAYS, I’M USUALLY LOOKING FOR THE NEXT NATIONAL PARK TO CROSS OFF MY LIST.
THAT SAME CURIOSITY IS WHAT PULLED ME INTO PHOTOGRAPHY. I GOT MY START SOPHOMORE YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL ON THE SCHOOL NEWSPAPER, AND WHAT STARTED WITH A CAMERA GREW INTO A HOBBY, A CAREER, AND NOW A LIFESTYLE.
OVER THE YEARS, I’VE GROWN FROM BEHIND THE CAMERA INTO CREATIVE DIRECTION, ART DIRECTION, BRAND DEVELOPMENT, CAMPAIGNS, AND PRODUCTION. WHETHER I’M SHOOTING OR LEADING THE CREATIVE, I LOVE TAKING AN IDEA FROM THAT FIRST SPARK TO SOMETHING REAL.
A FEW THINGS ABOUT ME:
I’LL DRIVE AN EXTRA HOUR FOR THE CAMPSITE WITH A VIEW.
SUSHI AND A WHISKEY COCKTAIL ARE MY WEAKNESS.
LIVE MUSIC. ALWAYS.
DID SOMEONE SAY TACOS?
SPOT ME WITH A CUP OF COFFEE, SKETCH PAD, OR A CAMERA IN MY HAND.
GOOD COMPANY IS ALWAYS INVITED.
AND SPEAKING OF GOOD COMPANY, I BELIEVE EVERYONE DESERVES TO FEEL COMFORTABLE, RESPECTED, AND WELCOME. I’M PROUD TO WORK WITH PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE AND TO CREATE A SPACE WHERE EVERYONE CAN BE THEMSELVES.
YOU ASKED FOR THE RECEIPTS
ZAK WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING IN CAPTURING ALL THE RIGHT PHOTOS.
HE IS FOCUSED BUT ALSO KEEPS HIS CLIENTS ENTERTAINED DURING THE SHOOT. HE IS ALWAYS QUICK TO RESPOND TO ANY CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS ONE MAY HAVE. HE ALSO TAKES ANY AND ALL OPPORTUNITIES TO CAPTURE THAT PERFECT PHOTO.
I WAS AMAZED BY HOW MANY PHOTOS THAT I TOTALLY FELL IN LOVE WITH.
OUR WEDDING WAS PERFECTLY CAPTURED, AND WE WOULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR ANYONE DIFFERENT TO DO THE JOB.

ZAK IS THE BEST!
ANOTHER PHOTOGRAPHER LEFT US HANGING WITH JUST A FEW WEEKS BEFORE OUR LABOR DAY WEEKEND WEDDING. I'M SO GLAD WE WERE REFERRED TO ZAK. HE RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY AND REASSURED US THAT WE WERE IN GOOD HANDS. BETTER STILL, HE DELIVERED. HE WAS EVERYTHING THAT DAY THAT HE NEEDED TO BE, BUT WITHOUT EVER BEING IN THE WAY.
BECAUSE HE TAKES POLOROIDS OF KEY SCENES THROUGHOUT THE DAY WE ENDED OUR SPECIAL DAY WITH A TIMELINE OF PHOTOGRAPHS. STILL, WE WERE BLOWN AWAY TO SEE OUR FULL ALBUM.
ZAK CAPTURED NOT ONLY THE IMAGES BUT ESPECIALLY THE SPIRIT AND FEEL OF OUR WEDDING DAY, AND WE, OUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES WILL CONTINUE TO BE MOVED BY HIS PHOTOS MANY YEARS HENCE. THANKS YOU FROM OUR HEARTS, ZAK!

BEST WEDDING DECISION!
ZAK (AND HIS SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER KATIE) WERE INCREDIBLE! THEY MADE US FEEL SO COMFORTABLE AND WE FELT AN INSTANT RAPPORT WITH BOTH OF THEM, WHICH MADE OUR ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING PHOTOS SO MUCH MORE AUTHENTIC AND NATURAL. WE ENJOYED EVERY SECOND OF SHOOTING WITH THEM.
ZAK IS CREATIVE, ATTENTIVE TO DETAIL, AND A TRUE ARTIST. OUR PICTURES TURNED OUT BETTER THAN WE EVER COULD HAVE IMAGINES AND WE ARE SO GRATEFUL! WE WOULD LOVE TO WORK WITH HIM AGAIN AND CAN'T RECOMMEND HIM HIGHLY ENOUGH.
