Meet Zephren

A New York based film photographer and filmmaker with a passion for documenting life and love on film.

When I was first introduced to film, I quickly became obsessed. I love the unique qualities of film, and the intention, patience, and technical understanding it requires. Within a month of shooting my first roll I taught myself how to develop and scan at home. Within 3 months I started collecting film cameras and fixing them myself. I soon became curious about Super 8 and bought my first motion picture camera. Having an extensive background in film photography lead to an easy transition to shooting motion picture film. Little did I know how much this camera would change my life.


I'm currently booking for 2026 and 2027. Share a few details about yourself, and we’ll set up a virtual consultation to see if we’re the perfect fit. Can’t wait to connect!

the decisive moment. the split second where gesture, light, composition, and emotion align to create the perfect picture. it ‘s not something you can manufacture or repeat.
