Cat photography, or simply catography is easily my favorite genre of photos. And judging by the sheer quantity of funny, silly, and cute cat photos online, I’m certainly not the only fan of the genre. For those who like cats - even only a little - we have a special treat - a collection of amazing cat portraits by the professional catographer Nils Jacobi.
As for anyone who says that cats are lazy, standoffish, and boring, we invite you to check out the phenomenal cat portraits too. They show just how silly, amusing, energetic, and beautiful felines really are. “I love taking pictures of cats in action and funny portraits with unique facial expressions,” the photographer shared with My Modern Met.
And it's certainly no coincidence that Nils Jacobi is so skilled at capturing the personality of his fluffy subjects. The photographer's portfolio consists of over ten thousand photos of cats. View some of these outstanding cat portraits below, and visit Nils Jacobi's Website, Instagram Page, and Facebook Page to connect and view even more of his works.
