“Photography is about communicating through visual imagery that reaches beyond the literal to the abstract. I could write paragraphs describing a mother grizzly’s love for her cub, or I could show you in a single image, and allow you to understand it in your soul.”

Steve Zmak is available for assignments locally in the Monterey Bay area and Central California Coast, as well as abroad. He has shot for ad agencies, universities, wineries, political campaigns, nonprofit organizations, corporations, artists, and entrepreneurs from Alaska to San Diego. His award-wining photos have been used on magazines covers, album covers, wine labels, billboards, websites, posters, brochures, annual reports, books, and video.
