About Me

***Agency Approved Photographer.***

My Professional Photography Studios: www.ZibaPhotoVideo.com

I have a professional photography studio in Irvine, where I do my photo and video shoots and teach photography classes out of. The studio is also available for rent to other photographers and video producers.
I have 15 years of photography and video production experience. Since I'm always busy doing shoots for clients, and most projects don't have a ton of creativity, I try to do creative model shoots for fun, additionally. Feel free to reach out if you want to plan a fun creative shoot.

He is helpful before, during, and after the shoot, which is hard to find. The work he did turned out amazing and his vision really came across in all the photos. I would not hesitate to work with him again." -Rachel Holborn -Model

"It’s such a pleasure to work at iWink Studios in Newport Beach, which, by the way is a huge, young studio that is fully loaded… a photographer’s dream come true, really. I personally, as a make-up artist, love the studio and the well-lit amazing make-up room the best." -Makeup by Rosy

"Few young people I know have such great personality and presence, and behave as professionally as Sammy Zargaran does. But it is his great sense of humor and ability to deal with all types of personalities so smoothly that sets him apart. His work ethic is incredible, not only is he hard working, but he has so much love and passion for what he does, you can definitely feel it in his energy. No doubt I’m learning a great deal about the industry in general through him, and I’ve only done a couple of shoots with him! I am so glad he reached out to me to assist him as a makeup artist. We really do make a great team and I sure hope he can use my assistance as much as he wishes!" -Rosy, Makeup by Rosy

"I went this past weekend to do a TFCD shoot with a photographer and a friend of mine who models. I am currently working on building my makeup portfolio, so it all worked well for the 3 of us and we each got some great shots for each of our ports... The studio is very well lit, has an awesome makeup room and great hourly pricing. I believe we got an introductory rate, but either way, the pricing is awesome. The owner of the studio, Sammy, was very friendly and even exchanged information with me in case he could use me for future shoots. The three of us had a great time during our shoot and we will definitely be using this studio again in the future! Five Stars for iWink Studios =)" -Kat (Model)

Thanks so much for inviting me to work on this shoot with you. It was a pleasure getting to work with you and the girls on Saturday.

You have a great energy and presence, and I hope to cross paths with you again sometime in the future!" -Isabelle, Makeup Artist
