Erik Jacobs

I am a visual storyteller dedicated to producing compelling messages in any medium (photos, videos, well-grown food…) with a particular yen for work that connects us to each other and deepens our connection to the natural environment.  

I believe that creativity can give elegant, human and delightful answers to the most complex problems in the world. 

My mission: To create distinctive and impactful work that generates attention, capital and success for people engaged in work that moves humanity forward – sustainable agriculture, the environment, journalism, social justice, the arts, science, technology and education

I am an award‐winning photographer who works regularly for many of the leading national and international publications. Erik’s clients span all industries from journalistic outlets to international corporations. He has extensive experience in portraiture, food, editorial work and corporate photography. His passion, however, is  long-term documentary projects.

Erik Jacobs studied Photojournalism at Western Kentucky’s School of Journalism & Broadcasting.

Erik is also very passionate about sustainable agriculture.  When not shooting photos, Erik runs a neighborhood CSA called the Plough & Stars Project.
