ABOUT ME
Hi, my name is Zach Reider. I am a Chicago-based photographer dedicated to capturing the intersection of urban architecture, street culture, high-energy action and the people who bring It all to life. My work is driven by a fascination with how we move through the world, whether it’s the kinetic energy of a subway train, a candid portrait on a Lincoln Park path, the intensity of a live sporting event, or the quiet, golden light hitting the city during sunrise.
With a background in media strategy, I view every frame through a lens of storytelling and visual impact. My goal isn’t just to document a scene, but to highlight the textures and "cinematic" moments that often go unnoticed in the daily hustle. When I’m not behind the camera or editing in Lightroom, you can usually find me at Studio Three or searching for the perfect Chicagohenge alignment.
