My name, if it isn’t obvious already, is Zack Arias and I am an editorial and commercial photographer based in Atlanta, GA. While I’ve been working in the music industry for the past seven years I’m now branching into more editorial work and advertising. You can boil it down to, “I photograph people in studio and on location.” My style and approach is simple, straightforward, bold, classic, true, and straight from camera.
My greatest talents are the ability to mix with any class of people and to get nervous subjects to relax in front of my camera. I can handle any technical difficulty you can throw at me. I once heard that a photographer’s job description is “problem solver”. I would have to agree with that.
I’m married to the lovely and talented musician Meghan Arias (formerly Meghan Coffee) and between us we have four boys ranging from age 12 to 2.
Enough of that. You can tell a lot about me by the music I listen to.
