Welcome to the Zach Goodyear Photography Blog!


I regret to say that after 8 great years, I have made the difficult decision to close the doors of Zach Goodyear Photography. It's something I'm still passionate about, but with a growing family and my main career and love of real estate, I am running out of free hours in the day.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, please don't hesitate to contact one of my fellow photographers who are great: Rich Kalonick or Ryan Dunnewold.

If you are looking for a portrait photographer, please feel free to contact Sandy Burr.


Thanks for your understanding and patience!

Local Photographers Meet-up

I met up with about 20 local photographers this weekend to do a shoot with some models at Vanderbilt University. We had a great time learning from each other and seeing everyone's different styles. Thanks to Rodey with Hair Mafia for doing the makeup. Here are a few shots from the day.

How cool are these boots!

Bridal Portraits at the Belle Meade Plantation

The Belle Meade Plantation is a fantastic location to shoot! It offers meticulous grounds and a beautiful Antebellum home. Shannon looked spectacular in her dress as well, which just made my job that much easier! I can't wait to see her on the wedding day. Shannon, here are a few shots from the day. Enjoy!

You can see the rest of your shots here.

Susan and Alex's Engagement Pics in Sewanee, TN

I spent a gorgeous Easter weekend in Sewanee, TN with Susan and Alex doing engagement photos for them. We had a blast! The weather was beautiful, so we headed out to campus to get some photos (both Susan and Alex graduated from The University of the South, my alma mater as well). After that, we played a little Bocce and headed out to the Cross for some great shots. They brought their sweet dog, Maddie with them who's photo is below. We finished with an Easter morning hike along the Perimeter Trail. All in all, a great weekend. Thanks guys! I'm looking forward to your wedding in September!

Here's a link to your slideshow. Be patient, it will take a few minutes to load.

Here is a link to all of the photos.

Leaving Las Vegas, with a TON of great stuff!

I just spent a week in Vegas at the annual WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) convention. Thousands of photographers converged on the city for one of the largest photography conventions of the year! I spent 7 days working with some of top photographers in the industry, taking classes, attending hands on workshops, and soaking up so much great info on all of the latest trends and styles. I also had a chance to see countless numbers of new, and truly stunning, album companies. There is some amazing stuff happening in the album world right now, especially on the press-printed book side. I have been skeptical of these in the past, but I'm definitely switching - they've come a long way! All that to say, it was a great trip and you'll be seeing the results in your photos.

Of course, we had a little fun too. I'll be posting those photos soon! Or should I...what is it they say about Vegas? :)
