Best Coast Photo was founded by Los Angeles photographer David Zentz to create exceptional images for clients in need of wedding, event and portrait photography. Based in Venice Beach, I work with clients throughout Southern California and destinations around the world.
Weddings - As your wedding photographer, my goal is to create images that will bring back the memories and emotions of your wedding day every time you view them. So I focus on the special moments and details that make your day unique. In the end, you will receive a timeless and gorgeous record of your once-in-a-lifetime event. I offer three distinct wedding packages as starting points and will work with you to customize a package that best suits you. I also love getting to know clients well in advance of the big day. Get in touch and tell me about your plans!
Events - I provide total coverage of your events through a combination of journalistic storytelling and posed portraiture. I have photographed large events for companies and organizations such as Panasonic, Stella Artois, the Santa Monica Museum of Art, and The Washington Institute for Near East Policy, as well as small events including birthday parties and bar and bat mitzvahs. No event is too large or small!
Headshots & Portraits - I have provided headshots and executive portraits for numerous actors and business professionals throughout the Los Angeles area. Depending on your needs, portraits can be done in studio or on location, indoors or out.
A little more about me: In addition to providing photographic services for private clients, I am an
editorial and commercial photographer whose work has been featured in publications around the world. Check out that work at
www.davidzentz.com. I started my career as a newspaper photojournalist, working for publications including the
Chicago Tribune, the
St. Petersburg Times, the
Orlando Sentinel and the
Journal Star. As a freelance photographer in Los Angeles, I continue to shoot for various publications such as
The Smithsonian Magazine, Newsweek, National Geographic TV, Outside, Wanderlust, Italian Style and countless publications via the Associated Press. I also work with commercial and corporate clients for various advertising and promotional campaigns. Regardless of the client, I approach all of my assignments in the same way. My goal is to have fun while creating timeless images that will thrill you and bring you back to these special moments for years to come. I look forward to working with you!
