Jason Houston

I have spent the majority of my career doing long-term documentary projects on social and environmental issues. Recent work includes a decade-long series on local and sustainable food and farming, a personal fine art project on the cultural landscape of the American Family, and an ongoing collaboration with Rare Conservation to document community-based conservation projects around the world throughout the developing tropics.

My work has been published by hundreds of print, online, broadcast media, and non-profit clients including The New York Times Magazine, The Boston Globe Sunday Magazine, Daylight Magazine, GEO (Germany), New York Magazine, Gastronomica, Playboy, TIME, Discover, Men’s Journal, HarperCollins, Chronicle Books, Scholastic, The Sierra Club, CNN, The Colbert Report, CBS, Farm Aid, Slow Food, and American Farmland Trust. His work has been exhibited in venues including Yale University, Spike Gallery NYC, Stone Barns Center, the DeCordova Museum, and Mountainfilm’s Art Walk in Telluride Colorado.

I continue to freelance regularly, often on larger projects for non-profit clients, I currently work as picture editor for Orion magazine, am an advisory board member for The Blue Earth Alliance, teach photography for the IS183 School of Art, and regularly serve as a judge and reviewer for photography competitions and portfolio reviews across the country.
