Some people take pictures. Jerry Kopff tells stories. Many subjects are of indigenous people, children, candid, floral, seascapes, sunrises, sunsets, architecture and landscapes. He's been in the jungles of the South Pacific with a tribe of people who have practiced cannibalism and has traveled to many World War II locations photographing its history and showing a more peaceful side today. One of the most interesting locations that Jerry has photographed was Antarctica.

Travel photographer Jerry Kopff's work promotes ecotravel and ecotourism in many third world countries and other exotic locations.

He has been a professional photographer for over 40 years and his assignments have taken him to all seven continents in pursuit of stock images as well as many parts of the United States.

He depicts the sights and almost the sounds in his work by creating memories, setting moods, emotions, telling a story, creating design patterns with a more gentile atmosphere.

Jerry has been involved in photography ever since he had his first camera, a Brownie box camera. He served in U.S. Navy as a photographer and was the lead cruise book photographer during his second tour aboard the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk CVA 63 during 1963-1964. This cruise book was later published and is now in the John F. Kennedy Library. He also photographed President John F. Kennedy in 1963.

Jerry has been to 58 countries, all 7 continents and 57 islands. Many of his gallery photographs are limited editions and he also has a large inventory of stock photos on travel as well as other subjects and is available for international and local photo assignments. Jerry currently makes his home in Surprise, Arizona.
