He contributes to the newspaper’s extensive gallery of photographs of events in the Greater New Orleans Area. But in 2005 Jackson became particularly known for his industriousness and innovation in obtaining unique and superb photographs during and after, a natural disaster which has caused Jackson, by virtue of his experience, to be frequently sought not only for his photographs but also for his advice on photography of natural disasters. Many of his photographs appeared in the 2006 Times-Picayune book Katrina: The Ruin and Recovery of New Orleans.
