Zach was very professional. I was very pleased with the work he did. I will continue to use him for all my photography needs. I would definitely give him 5 stars. Keep up the great work!

My second photo shoot ever was with Zach just about a month ago. I did not know him prior to the shoot but he made the shoot go by so smoothly and produced a large amount of proofs to pick from. I was very satisfied with the final shots and in his editing abilities. I would recommend his services to achieve the look you’re going for.

– Amanda Munoz
Portrait Photography

I got a number of very different shots, perfect for all of the varied work I encounter. Not only that, but it was an extremely good value. For the price, 10 quality shots is a steal.

– Stafford Douglas
Portrait Photography

Zach is one of the most creative and energetic photographers I’ve ever met in the industry. I’ve been consistently impressed with his ability to make any situation and location work in a minimal amount of time. Not only is his photo work exceptional, but as a writer and educator he’s second to none.

Actors & Actresses Reviews


I had already seen some of Zach’s work online before booking the appointment, so I already knew he was a fantastic photographer, but what the pictures don’t tell you is just how awesome the guy behind the camera is. Some people love to have their photo taken, but for me, it has always been an awkward/weird experience. Thankfully, Zach had such an easy going and approachable attitude that I was able to forget that my picture was being taken and just relax. I ended up with the most amazing headshots I have ever had. Even the raw photos were beautiful, but after the subtle edits, they were extraordinary. When I look at the photos I see myself, not some awkward girl posing for the camera. The prints were beautiful and have already drastically increased the amount of auditions I get called in for.

Comfortable, quick and easy professional shoot. Zach was a pleasure to work with and got me my proofs in record time. The session resulted in a number of new head shot choices that I now use in many areas of my promotion. I highly recommend his work.

– Patricia Bathune

Working with Zach was an amazing experience. Photography is an art that I’ve truly come to respect and admire, and it takes skill especially to present a person with all of their qualities and the full breadth of their personality within minutes of meeting them, and Zach has that in droves. His studio is the calmest place I have seen in LA, and he puts you into further ease after you begin the sessions. He’s able to capture every facet of your personality, and takes his art seriously, without any pretense or elitism, and exudes passion and commitment, evidenced by the many workshops and seminars he does nationwide. Highly recommended.

Zach’s the best. The photo shoot was professional, yet relaxed and comfortable. The headshots I received from Zach are outstanding, I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. As an actor, having quality headshots is absolutely key to catching the attention of casting directors and these photos have gotten me plenty of auditions.

– Andres Segura

Zach was awesome to work with. He worked quickly, and we just chatted as he did small adjustments to my pose, the lights and his camera position; and after about ninety minutes I had a whole gallery of possible head shots. I would highly recommend working with him. He is quick, reasonable, and talented.

– Scott Bryan

Such a pleasure to shoot with Zach. He made me feel right at home and was very comfortable during the entire session! Plus the turn around time was the night of, you can’t beat that!

Zach is a great photographer and I’m very happy with the headshots I got. He was very professional and friendly and I highly recommend working with him!

Best headshot photographer I’ve ever had the honor of working with! It was only my 2nd time getting headshots and I was still unsure about what to do and how I should be setting myself up for the shots. But, Zach is a professional. He knew exactly what to do and say in order for me to find my own natural looks for my photos. These headshots have gotten me more auditions (and compliments) then any photo of me before. I always recommend him to other actors I know in the Albuquerque area. On top of that, Zach’s one legitimately cool dude.

– Matthew Puett

Zach recently did some headshots for me. Zach is easy going and makes you feel comfortable. I was able to choose from a surplus of worthy shots to use. I would highly recommend Zach to anyone looking for a friendly photographer who will turn out a great product.

– David Waid

Zach does high quality, professional work. His recent actor head shot session with my son was very reasonable and produced several really good head shots. Zach is great to work with and his editing and retouching skills make the whole process very convenient. I highly recommend Zach Sutton Photography.

– Martin Brown

Zach Sutton is the consummate professional. He takes so much pride and love in what he does and it shows! I had a headshot session with Zach and was completely at ease, knowing I was going to be getting the highest quality photos I can get! With music playing in the background and his warm, inviting energy made our session so easy, laid back, and fun! Let’s face it, as actors, our headshots are our most vital tool and with Zach’s expert eye I know I have the best shots possible to help propel my career! I have only received stellar feedback from industry professionals, friends, and family alike! I highly urge anyone looking for headshots in the LA area to please do yourself the favor and contact Zach Sutton! You will not be disappointed!!

Other Photographers


From the moment I learned Zach was offering a lighting workshop I immediately knew that the investment had to be made. I have followed not only his incredible work but his fantastic articles for Fstoppers. Both the in class workshop and on location shoot were incredibly insightful. Zach was patient, hands on, and willing to share his vast knowledge of outdoor lighting and beyond. Absolutely nothing was off limits. I sincerely feel that the course is a game changer & will push you & your photography business to that next level.

– Alicia Padilla

Zach’s is outstanding. I would recommend him and his workshops to anyone looking to improve their outdoor lighting techniques – and photography in general.

– Webb Johnson

Well if I had to point out one thing about your work, it’s just a little bit too…… awesome. Your sir need to chill, you’re making us look bad!!

– Chris Dunn

The class portion of the photography workshop was full of information, examples, and extras like tutorials for later use. The outdoor hands-on part was really fun, and he let us use his own gear, which is awesome. I learned a lot and can’t wait to use it.

– Beth Waldron Yuhas

Zach’s photography workshop was such an eye-opening experience for me. I had zero knowledge of artificial lighting and he was patient and willing to answer all the questions I had. I am so excited to practice all the tips and techniques he had to share.

– Ashley Shaw

His photography workshops are like a class for the everyman. There was discussion, opinions and laughter and out of that was this freedom for creativity. All from a great teacher and great guy.
