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!

Christmas Eve (Eve) Portraits

The Swayze family was in town over Christmas and I was able to sneak them in for a shoot just a few short hours before I left last Wednesday the day before Christmas Eve. I just returned a couple days ago and finally looked at the shots today and I think we got some great ones! Here are some of my favorites of this beautiful new family! Check out those eyelashes!

The rest of the photos can be seen here.

3 month photo session with Miss Carrie

I was set to meet the Young family yesterday at 10am. I pulled into the driveway, knocked on the door, and no one came. I was sure we had scheduled it for 10am, so I waited, and waited, and 15 minutes later, I finally tried to call Neel. I knew their house looked a little different than I remembered, but it wasn't until I was leaving them a message that I realized I was at the completely wrong house. I'm an idiot! It must be the rush of the holidays. So, I drove about 10 houses away and pulled in their driveway, thankful that a stranger didn't come to the other door wondering what in the heck I was doing at their house with a bunch of camera equipment at 10am on a Saturday morning.

By the time I arrived and the correct house, Carrie had just about had enough waiting around and decided she wasn't up for smiling too much. We caught a few cute shots, but figured it would be best to reschedule. So, I went back this morning, a little earlier this time, and got some really cute shots for Carrie's 3 month session (as well as some cute ones of their wonderful dogs!). Check them out below! You can see the rest here.

Merry Christmas from Abbo and Gumbo!

The tree is up, lit with big, fat colorful lightbulbs. The ornaments are still in the box, but hopefully those will go up tomorrow, or at least sometime before Christmas. :) Gumbo the cat has already tried to climb up the tree once. I'd say it's time to call it a day, but not without a couple photos of Gumbo and Abbo. Abbo sure does miss Brown Dog and Oscar, but seems to be getting along well with Gumbo, so I think they'll become fast friends soon which is great. Enjoy the weekend! Only 13 shopping days left!

Newborn Baby Photos of Miss Maida

I met with the extremely beautiful Maida last weekend at her parents beautiful home in Nashville to get some newborn photos of her. This is the first of 5 sessions, so you'll be seeing more of her throughout the 2010. She was SO good it was incredible. She has a full head of hair and has the most beautiful eyes. Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. The rest can be seen here.






















Merry Christmas and Happy 9 Month Birthday Sophie!

I met with Sophie and her her cute little cousin Charlie this weekend to do some Christmas card shots in combination with Sophie's 9 month shoot. They were adorable! Check out a sneak peek below! The rest can be seen here.

Cian is 6 months old: Christmas Portraits

I met with little Cian yesterday who is 6 months old and looks great! He is sitting up on his own and was full of smiles. We met at his Grandfather's gorgeous home in Nashville and it was the most impressive display of Christmas decorating I have seen outside of Cheekwood! It was a Christmas Wonderland inside and the kids loved it! Here are a few of my favorites. The rest can be seen here. Enjoy!
