About

More Than a Photographer,
An Artist at Heart

My name is Peter Jacobs. I’m a portrait, event, fashion, and editorial photographer based in Los Angeles California. My journey started not with a camera, but with a love for storytelling—visual, honest, and raw.

Years ago, I picked up a camera to capture my sister’s birthday. That single decision led me into a world where every frame has meaning and every subject has a voice. Since then, I’ve worked with models, brands, entrepreneurs, and everyday people—each shoot reminding me why I started: to freeze moments that matter.

What sets my work apart is emotion. It’s not just about the light or the angles (though I obsess over those, too)—it’s about connection. Whether I’m capturing the buzz of a live event or the subtle power in a model’s eyes, I pour myself into each shot.

My work has been described as bold, cinematic, and real. And I’m proud of that. Because I’m not just here to take beautiful photos. I’m here to make you feel something.

5.0/5

Working with this artist elevated our brand’s imagery to new heights. The attention to detail and creative passion are unmatched.

The journey as a photographer isn’t just about building a name in the industry but more importantly—it’s about inspiring others through powerful visuals, one frame at a time.
