1221 Photography

Hi, I am Zach Adams. I'm a photographer from Illinois. (United States). I have been featured in Illinois Times and also have an exhibit at the Illinois State Museum. I use photography as a means to document the world around me. I take pictures that call attention to things that some may overlook. Everything from protests to a simple flower. This exploration of the overlooked helps me engage more deeply with where I am in space and time. My goal is to take photographs that draw viewers into the now.

I am inspired by the moments we lose to memory. I hope to bottle up any emotion with my photographs to save for later. Maybe unsurprisingly, my photos reference memories of good times, bad times and everything in between. This collection of work comes from my desire to preserve important and beautiful moments in my life.
