I'm Peter Zhao, a Long Island–based visual artist working across photography and fine art figure modeling, with over 20 years of experience in visual practice.

My work is grounded in an understanding of light, form, anatomy, and gesture. Whether I'm behind the camera or modeling for artists and photographers, I approach each session with intention and respect for the creative process.

In photography, I focus on low-light, candid, portrait, and aerial work. I am an FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot, bringing a licensed, professional approach to aerial imagery. As a figure model, I work with art schools, studios, and independent artists, offering strong pose control, endurance, and an informed awareness of how artists see and build form.

Both practices inform each other. I value collaboration, clarity, and showing up prepared.

A Little Something Extra

One of the things I enjoy most about having a drone is being able to help out close to home. Not every job is a real estate shoot or a big production — sometimes a neighbor just needs eyes on their gutters, a rooftop vent, or something caught in a tree.

I've started taking on small local requests like these. Quick flights, straightforward answers, no fuss. The kind of thing that saves you a ladder climb or an unnecessary contractor call.

I keep it simple and close to the ground — residential, neighborhood-scale stuff. Nothing that requires special airspace authorization or commercial tower work. Just practical help for people nearby.
