After working various jobs all over Europe, he returned home and started receiving assignments with il- lustrious publications such as Vogue China, Harper’s Bazaar, Bazaar Uomo, Elle China, Marie Claire, L’Officiel, Numero, GQ and Figaro. He gained international recognition and has photographed the likes of Oliver Stone, Kobe Bryant, Hilary Swank, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. Besides commercial work, Zack has engaged in reality shows such as The Supermodel (Chinese version of America’s Next Top Model) and as director of photography between 2013 and 2016. In 2009, he was awarded the title of Sino-British Cultur- al Exchange Ambassador and obtained several photographic awards including the best Chinese photographer of Elle Style Awards in 2012 and most popular fashion photographer in 2015 at the Baidu Digital Fashion Festival. He established ZACKIMAGE in 2007, a professional pho- tography studio that offers photography services from him- self and others. The over 400 square metre area that consists of A.B.C three studios has a professional production team working throughout the world and caters for photography needs for fashion, celebrities, advertising, portrait and beauty dressing rooms with hangers and racks for the stylist, hair and make-up area and a sound system. The Zack x A.Cloud Camera Bag has two different models available in four colours: Classic Black, Retro Brown, Elegant Grey and Andy Warhol Ming Yellow. The bag has a rectangu- lar shape with rounded corners to give it an aerodynamic aes- thetic that recalls the curvature of the classic Leica M model. The front is enriched with a decoration in the shape of circu- lar convex lenses in a pop style. By transforming a commonly used accessory into a real container, A.Cloud has brought the art closer to everyday life.
