Jaccob McKay - Melbourne Photographer

Jaccob McKay is a Melbourne photographer working across commercial, editorial, and artistic projects. His style is intuitive and grounded — driven by a sense of presence, mood, and connection. Whether capturing people, places, or products, his work is deeply focused on storytelling through photography.

With a background in creative direction and a collaborative approach, Jaccob has worked with brands of all sizes, makers, and organisations to produce compelling visual content. His photography speaks in quiet tones — honest, textural, and emotionally resonant.

For Jaccob, photography is a practice of attention. More than just taking pictures, it's about noticing what sits beneath the surface — the light, the feeling, the moment in-between. He specialises in spaces and products, and nature-inspired photography that reveals rather than imposes.

His work is often described as subtle and spacious, favouring natural light, thoughtful framing, and a gentle confidence that invites the viewer in. As a creative photographer in Melbourne, Jaccob brings a calm and focused energy to every shoot.

Outside commissioned work, he continues to explore personal projects and experiments with image and sound. Based in the Dandenong Ranges on Wurundjeri Country, Jaccob draws daily inspiration from the landscape that surrounds him.
