About the photographer
Jacob Steentoft qualified as a photographer in 1998. However, his passion for documenting the brutal and heart-rending conditions under which people live in war zones and conflict zones began already when he got his first camera as a 14-year old.
Your help matters!
Equipped with his camera, Jacob Steentoft wishes to venture out into the world, to document the conditions of local societies, primarily in Africa and the Middle East. He is self-funding his trips and expenses, which renders him independent towards donations, in order to make this wish come true. To help, please consider buying one of his support packages or make your donation today. All donations are appreciated.
