Ary was such a treat to work with when we were photographing our open court at the Portland Fire Court of Dreams (Moda Center). Ary immediately jumped into action capturing action shots as we shot around and did some single/group photos. Ary also was super quick with getting our photos to us, we were so hyped that we had a watch party for our raw photos. Will definitely reach out for any future needs. 10/10, no notes just vibes.

About Finch Photography
**It does cost me money just to talk to you on this platform, so please, serious requests only. If you’re passively looking for general photography costs or don't know your availability yet, please email me directly!** Hi! I'm Ary - formerly known as Zach. I've been capturing portraits and events for over a decade, and have been Portland-based for the last 9 years. I specialize in capturing meaningful moments for folks who are less comfortable in front of the lens. I’m part photographer part cheerleader, and I promise to provide you with photographs that you'll treasure for years to come. I believe in making professional portraiture easy and enjoyable, which means offering flexible pricing and lots of encouragement and levity during my shoots. I also provide free touch-up edits post-delivery to ensure you end up with exactly what you want. I'm available for consultations 7 days a week. I look forward to working with you, Ary
Reviews
We recently brought home a new puppy and we had such a great experience working with Ary to capture some family photos, and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. The edits were clean, thoughtful, and really brought out the best in each shot. Ary was professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. He made the whole process smooth and enjoyable, and the turnaround time was impressively fast without compromising quality. I’m especially grateful for his flexibility in creating a personalized package that fit our budget—it really made the experience feel thoughtful and tailored to our needs. On top of that, the quality of his work is outstanding and truly a great value. So glad we found Ary. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful edits and a photographer who genuinely cares about his clients.
Working with Ary was a great experience. I received a prompt response from my initial message and booked the photo session the same day. Ary offered several suggestions on locations and was prompt for our appointment. My two daughters thought our time with Ary was the best family photo session ever. Thank you Ary for so beautifully capturing my family. We will reach out again next year.
So happy with Zach's work! He was able to take photos the same week I contacted him, which was a life saver as I needed the pictures asap. He gave us tons of options to pick from and did an AMAZING, and quick, job editing. My brother (who is pictured) wasn't sure what to do for graduation photos, but Zach did an excellent job of taking a variety of pictures with different poses, outfits, and locations. He was super responsive, easy to work with, flexible, and an overall pleasure! Highly recommend him for your photography needs!
Ari did an excellent job on my son's senior photos. Ari was quick to respond, flexible, and thoughtful with his photos. He also did a great job with his editing.
Zach was great! A few members of our team were attending a conference in Portland and we wanted to have a headshot activation at our company exhibitor booth. We were in two different times zones, but Zach was extremely quick to respond throughout the entire process! Onsite, our team members said "Zack was great! He was personable with the attendees, patient while we were in between shoots, and generally professional and nice to have around!" We highly recommend Zach's services and would book again!
Zach is the best! Seriously, best photographer I have ever worked with! He is so kind and listened to exactly what I had in mind. 10/10 recommend. Our session was so relaxed and fun and the pictures are amazing!
⭐️⭐️⭐️Zach is AMAZING! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ His confidence and talent shows through his photos. He was super friendly and fun. He helped us with posing and made the session so easy! The photos came out beautifully! We’re so excited to share them! We highly recommend him!
My fiancé and I are so in LOVE with our engagement pics!! Zach did such an amazing job at helping 2 camera shy lovebirds feel relaxed and warm. We came from out of state and he made the whole process smooth, and even suggested another location to shoot! I SO wish I could have him capture our wedding.
Our experience with Zach has been wonderful. For someone like me who feels awkward being in front of the cameras, he made our engagement photoshoot fun. In 10 minutes, he made me relax and enjoy what we were doing.. 💯 would recommend!!
It was an honor to have Zach as our photographer. He is so easy to work with and has a great personality. We can't wait to contact him again if we have other shoots we would like to do. It was a pleasure to take photos with him and he made it really easy and relaxing for us. Highly recommended!
We hired Zach for our small backyard family wedding and we couldn't be happier with our choice. He was incredibly responsive and listened to what we wanted which was to capture a lot of candid moments. It would be easy for a photographer to stand out with our 20 person wedding but he blended right in and was a delight to have as a guest. He even captured fun pictures of our dogs that we love. Couldn't recommend him more.
We hired Zach to capture wedding moments for our courthouse wedding/signing event. Zach was super responsive from the get go, and was willing to work with us on a budget that was comfortable for us. On the day of the event, he arrived on time and blended in so well with the crowd and made us all feel comfortable when he captured beautiful moments from the event. Overall, I highly recommend Zach for your next big event!
We love our wedding photos! The entire experience with Zach was awesome. He was fast to respond to all of my requests and was professional and personable. We asked for a wedding session that would be mostly candid and the photos caught such amazing emotions and memories. Five stars.
Zach was an absolute pleasure to work with! We immediately felt comfortable with him & he was so helpful with the organization of our group photos. He’s incredibly creative, which is what we had set out to accomplish with our nuptials. We are SO happy with our wedding pictures! Thank you, Zach!
Zach was great to work with and the pictures turned out fantastic! We had 3 dogs which was a huge challenge to wrangle but we made it work. Highly recommend him.
I really enjoyed working with Zach. My last headshots were taken several years ago and I was not feeling as confident in front of the camera as I did last time. Zach has an excellent demeanor for photography and puts the subject at ease. He knows the Portland area and has a great eye for outdoor locations and worked with me until I was 100% satisfied with the outcome. Recommend highly and will definitely hire him again.
Zach made our search for a photographer up in the Portland area amazing! He was quick to respond and asked questions and gave suggestions on where to shoot! He was flexible and easy to communicate with before; during and after the photo shoot! So happy he was willing to drive two hours to shoot my partner and I! We are so happy with the outcome of our photos that we already have a plan to shoot some photos during winter time! Thanks a bunch Zach, we appreciate everything!
Highly recommend Zach - he is very responsive, super easy to work with, and gives/takes feedback well!
We are just so thrilled we were lucky enough to have Zach be our wedding photographer. He was incredibly professional, but at the same time it felt like we had a dear friend shoot the wedding. Not only did he capture all the emotional candid shots we requested, he also helped wrangle dogs, keep track of the tortoise and gave words of encouragement to put me at ease when I was so nervous I was shaking. He was so flexible and easy to work with when plans had to change and his pricing is an incredible value and worth every penny. We got our prints exactly when he said we would and I can honestly say they captured the day perfectly. We couldn't be happier with our experience or the product and hope to use his services again in the future!
