I’m Yacob,

A fashion and portrait photographer based in Salt Lake City, Utah.

My work focuses on the intersection of form, light, and narrative. I’m drawn to the sculptural nature of the human body and the weight that styling, pose, and composition can carry. Influenced by early photographic techniques and contemporary fashion aesthetics, I aim to create images that balance precision with a raw, emotional edge.

My visual style leans into strong contrast, atmosphere, and careful attention to detail.

I’m constantly inspired by artists like Szilveszter Mako, Keith Oshiro, and Diego Bendezu. Their creative vision continues to shape and motivate my own. Photography, for me, is both a craft and a form of expression.
