I am so grateful to have this image in the permanent collection of The Ogden Museum of Southern Art! I’ve had my Photography hanging on the walls a few times in this amazing institution, but each time, I bring it home. This image is staying put! Take a look at the video to learn more!

Big credit for documenting the print signing to my amazing daughter! And as always, anytime my images are printed and put on walls I have to thank the amazing talents of Cameron Wood! Thank you !!!

So proud of this team! Zack Smith Photography and Video just completed a commercial for the New Orleans Health Department - New Orleans Health Department highlighted their Family Connects program...a FREE service to all new mothers in Orleans Parish! So proud of our video team of Tamara Grayson, Noé Cugny and Matthew Seymour!

This is the first full scale commercial I did where we included AI storyboarding from LTX to prove concept, worked w/ the client on scripts, voice overs, and music, Was a great experience!

A lot going on in life and really neglected to post this happening, but it came to my attention that I need to, sorry Isaac for not telling you before you bought “another bands” tickets on May 1.

A band I’ve been playing in since 2003 and have forged some of the best relationships and connections in my life are getting together again next weekend! Rotary Downs is celebrating the 20th year anniversary of our release, Chained to the Chariot.
released in the post Katrina wild days of New Orleans, October 2006 saw the beginning of a great run for this band and one that is for so many great memories in my life. I got to play in NPR Studios in New York, Bonnaroo music festival twice, jazz fest twice, Voodoo Fest, a few times, and countless gigs on both coasts and the Gulf Coast. Come celebrate with us get tickets they’re going fast, so many special guests and friends who have played on almost all of our records since the beginning…

1 foot in the swamp. 1 foot in the street. One for me, one for you….

Philosophy I’ve worked by for quite some time, being able to work with my longtime friend and collaborator JUSTIN PEAKE (see: Night Janitor, Helicopter Head - https://youtu.be/iT4VLtyLxyssi=taJUjNfoYJle8Sw8)

is a project among many by this talented cat, so great to photograph his new project and get some images for him, but also, this image for posterity and creating an image in a long line of stories.

go follow him and stay tuned to what he’s up to, that’s about all I can say for now, but enjoy this portrait shot with my

Location, location, location! Yes it matters for my commercial photography and video clients, and my studio at 835 Julia Street in New Orleans offers a strategic, real-world advantage for downtown business district clients that goes beyond my four walls.

The rat emerged from
The dew dropped spider bog

he was hungry
But stuck
On a log

Amazing fog on my run this morning, this is what I get for running with my phone. I stop every few hundred yards to take pictures…
