Headshots that open doors

Cinematic video and personal branding.

Phone-shot social content has a shelf life measured in seconds. Broadcast-standard video assets compound in value, shaping how your market sees your business for years.

Cinematic commercial video still from a Zach Dalin Photography production

Amateur video quietly tells the market you are amateur.

Shaky, flat, forgettable video does more harm than no video at all. It frames a serious business as a small one. Broadcast-trained in the KMOV-TV newsroom and on the USA Today wire service, Zach produces videos that look like the brands you are trying to compete with, not the ones you are trying to leave behind.

We have worked with Zach for the past 15 months with my small business Saint Louis Closet Co. He shoots a variety of types of photos for us, from head shots, to home interiors. He creates videos, reels, and multiple photos for both social and print. Zach is A PROFESSIONAL in every sense. We love working with Zach, love the content he creates, and would highly recommend him and his team to anyone.

Zach Dalin is one of the best photographers I've worked with in my career. His direction, creativity, patience, and willingness to try new techniques has really made him a joy to work with. He has an eye and real style for food photography. We will continue to use him when we have the needs at Companion Baking!

We have used Zach for several corporate events and not only is he great to work with, but his photos exceed our expectations! We appreciate his quick response to emails and the online payment feature is wonderful. Not sure how he does it, but the link with photos always comes quicker than we expect. You can't go wrong with Zach!
