Zack Schomp Photography

I was raised north of San Francisco in beautiful West Sonoma County. My wife and I moved back home after living in Oakland for a number of years, and are now raising our daughter in the home my wife grew up in - it's magical. I love finding new places to photograph in Sonoma County and beyond, and I love making new memories in the familiar places I know so well. Weddings make me giddy, and I can't get enough of that feeling. Besides photographing weddings and spending time with my family, I'm also a lecturer in photography at CSU East Bay. Teaching what I love is a true gift, and I'm grateful for this opportunity to share with my students.

I take a documentary approach with a fine-art background. I love to disappear into the crowd and make discreet pictures, and I love getting caught so I can follow up with a formal group shot or two right afterwards:) When I imagine myself photographing someones event, I don't think of myself as just the person who takes pictures - I also think about the experience of looking at the pictures - because at the end of the day, that’s what we’re left with. I offer my services in creating custom prints, at whatever scale seems fitting for the images, if the couple so desires the service.
