Hey!
My name is Jacob Vickers and I am a recent graduate of Columbia College Chicago. Among my many interests, architecture and photography are by far my favorite. Creating and capturing since I was a little kid, I’ve always known I wanted to head into the design industry where I can express myself through the vision of others and bring spaces to life. One of my life long dreams was to move to Chicago and work in a design firm downtown collaborating with designers, architects, and engineers alike to create the next generation of designs! Combining my passion for photography with architecture has been a fun blend and an excuse to explore the city with my camera and drone at hand. Living in one of the world’s greatest cities, there is always a spot to photograph!
