Specializing in commercial and narrative work, he uses his unique ability to connect deeply with individuals to tell a multi-faceted story in all his projects. Chase has shot projects all over North America, which falls perfectly in line with his love of exploration and adventure.

As an avid backpacker, there is no location unreachable in Chase’s eyes; some locales simply take more work to get to than others. From the middle of the ocean, to the top of a mountain, through the expanse emptiness of the prairies, Chase feels right at home wherever the journey may lead him – always with his camera in hand.
