Whenever I give a talk or host a show, I’ve heard from this community time and again that one of the most valuable things is the Q&A wrap up. Straight up. You asking questions and me doing my best to answer them. And not just the “how’d you get started in photography” questions…. we’re talking the hard questions, landing clients, hiring staff, working with challenging clients, legal questions, gear questions, portfolio questions, whatever you can muster…
As such, we’re dedicating and entire 90 minute chasejarvisLIVE show to this topic this Wednesday. We will take some questions LIVE via the #cjlive or #AskChase hashtag on Twitter (follow @chasejarvis here) during the broadcast, however, so that we can be organized and get through as many questions as possible, please frame your questions below in the comments. Don’t be shy. Ask away. Anything is fair game. Whatever it is you really want to know about with photography and video–your questions and the dirty truth.
Who: You, Me + a worldwide gathering of photographers and filmmakers
What: I’ll be answering any/all the questions you can throw at me in 90 minutes
When: this coming Wednesday, February 9th at 10:00am Seattle time (1pm NYC or GMT -8)
Where: just visit www.chasejarvis.com/LIVE
How to get your questions on the show: ASK THEM IN THE COMMENTS BELOW
I’ll bring your questions from the comments below onto the show and give you a shoutout for asking your question. You + me, mono y mono. And if I don’t know the answer, I might even make a cell phone call to get you the info you want. You get the point.
It’s free, it’s LIVE, and apologies but this video won’t be re-posted for a very very long time (if ever), so please tune in LIVE if you can. (We’re in a technical gear/podcast/youtube transition at the moment, figuring some stuff out.)
Ask your questions below in the comments. Hope to see you Wednesday. The more people participate in this event, the more interesting it will be for everyone involved, so feel free to invite your photo friends.





Chase, thanks for this great opportunity, hope you makeit through the questions.
No gear-related question here (I know you’re not fond of those, and for good reason 🙂
I’m in this as an amateur, so I shoot what I like to shoot.
Mosly,I shoot girls, and try to realise their potential, to make them look as great as I can (in my view)
However, people tend to challenge me on this, saying that it’s too superficial (no story, no emotions, no concept,…)
So what is your view on this? Is beauty in itself not enough? And even if it is, is it too shallow?
Someone (can’t remember who) once said: “imagine you have a personal gallery. A secret one that nobody else can visit. Image what pictures you see there. Now go outside and make those pictures. “.
Hey Chase,
First and foremost, I’m a huge fan. Thanks so much for taking the time out of your crazy schedule to make your blogs, videos, and these livestreams.
As for my question, what are some of your best tips and advice for post-processing? I feel like I still have a lot to learn in terms of processing my photos, as well as establishing an efficient workflow. A mini-blog or video mini-series would be amazing on this topic!
I’m definitely looking forward to Wednesday! Thanks Chase, take care!
@Chase – How are working folks supposed to tune into a Live show during WORK hours?
How was your first experience working with a client like? How did you get the gig?
I’ve been shooting anything and everything the past year to find my vision and where I want to take my photography. How long does someone take to find what they want to evolve into? Weddings? Portraits? Commerical etc.
