01 How it works

Nobody has to know how to pose. That's my job.

I direct the whole session, so you can stop wrangling and actually be in the photos. You don't need any modeling experience, and neither do the kids.

Beaches, fields, your own neighborhood or the studio. Expecting? Maternity sessions and newborn photos are part of the family work too.

  • Plan it togetherLocation, outfits, mood
  • A relaxed, directed shootI guide every pose
  • Full retouchingOn every photo you receive
  • A private galleryWithin 7 days

In their own words.

“
Zach is truly the best!! I’ve known him for over 7 years, and we’ve done so many different shoots together, from lifestyle to maternity and everything in between. He always makes me feel beautiful, comfortable, and confident in front of the camera. He’s great with help for posing & keeps the energy fun! All while being professional and genuinely such a great person. I seriously can not recommend Zach enough 💙
