Zack is an award winning photographer specializing in fine art landscape photography, and Photoshop processing. Zack has been teaching Photoshop for over 11 years, and photography for over 8 years.“Art is in my blood. My father is a well known poster artist and painter. My mom is a painter, and print maker and my brother is an incredible designer who works for a firm in Manhattan. Art is a way of life for my family, and I will hopefully pass it on to my daughter as well.â€â€œThe love of nature is also something that my family and I are passionate about. I’ve been hiking, biking, rock climbing and backpacking since I was little. My parents taught me to appreciate the beauty in nature and to help preserve it for all to enjoy.â€I love photographing the landscape. I seek out these types of locations to experience true wilderness, away from crowds, cities, and the stress of everyday life. Visiting these wild areas is a form of meditations for me, where I get to completely relax and appreciate the incredible beauty of nature. I try to convey the emotion I was feeling, and the sense of wonder I have when I see such beauty in nature. That expression through my images, is what photography and art in general is all about for me. Zack is teaching photo workshops at the Cascade Center of Photography and can be booked for private photo tours.  Zack Schnepf
