Jakub is a photographer, influencer and YouTuber who grew up in the hills area in the Northern part of Czech Republic. Since an early age, he competed in downhill biking and quickly realized it is important to present and promote yourself in order to attract sponsors. That was the starting point for Jakub’s photo career.

Spending a lot of time on outdoor adventures made Jakub realize the true beauty of nature itself and he has developed his very own style of landscape photography. He often wakes up early in the morning or stays outdoor late to hike up to the hills to catch the sunrise or sunset. You can even find Jakub sleeping in the wild in his van, customized with bed, wifi and other gadgets to make the stay more comfortable. Cars is another passion, Jakub photographed the Dakar rally in 2020 and has also collaborated with Range Rover and Volkswagen. Other projects include travel photography in Czech Republic, Finland and collabs with North Face and Sony.
