About
A native of Syracuse, NY - photographer Zach Coco got his start in high school, working with B&W film; processing and printing his images in the dark room. Zach’s vision is unique, and his approach is calculated; crafting each portrait for the individual subject. From humble beginnings, Zach has always been one to give to thanks to those who have helped him along his journey. His grandfather was an especially big influence, and became the inspiration for his personal project, documenting our nation’s WWII Veterans experiences. Coco has always had a connection to our nation’s heroes, being born on Veterans Day, but when his grandfather, a WWII Veteran himself, passed away, Zach realized that the time is almost up, to show the men and women who saved the world, the appreciation they deserve.. He is known for creating an atmosphere of calm and positivity, putting his subjects at ease and treating every individual with the respect they deserve.
When not traveling for work, Zach lives in Los Angeles, with his wife.
In his free time, he continues his mission to interview and photograph as many WWII Veterans as possible until they are all gone.
