Pandemic Partners

Zachary R Cooper

Hey, I'm Zach, a photographer and filmmaker living in NYC.

2020 has been tough and my creative stores were pretty tapped after being stuck inside and away from physical contact with so many of my people for so long. I missed my friends and wanted some face to face or as close to face to face interaction as I could get. I came up with an idea to pull up on couples I knew and take some photos from a safe distance outside on their stoop. This spawned the idea for Pandemic Partners, a video series featuring intimate conversations with couples in New York City reflecting on their lives together and all their ups and downs throughout 2020.

Ep 1 Amanda x Milan is out now

Ep 2 Lani x Tom is out now

I have 7 episodes total in this first season. New episodes premiere every Sunday night at 9pm on my YouTube channel.

Thanks for checking out my project!

One report from Bank of America suggested that the collapse in value was the fifth-worst for any asset in financial history. Despite steady gains this year, it hasn’t even come close to its November 2021 peak, and now things are about to get shaken up like a bead in a baby’s rattle w...

Ari Aster's Families On The Fritz

In Ari Aster’s 2016 short film C’est La Vie, Chester Crummings, a homeless man, speaks directly and combatively to camera about his life and society at large as he wanders the streets of LA, surviving, begging for change and casually murdering people. At one point, he says: “You know what Freud says about the nature of horror? He says it’s when the home becomes unhomelike. Unheimlich.” In Sig...
