UPDATE: If you’re reading this now, the live broadcast is TODAY. 11am Seattle Time, 2pm NYC, 7pm London, 8pm Paris and… on it goes. Hoping some of the hardcores from Asia and Down Under can stay up to catch the show! http://www.chasejarvis.com/live
Yep. You read that headline correctly – chasejarvisLIVE is coming at you again this Wednesday 4/27 at 11am Seattle Time (GMT -8) and this episode is a doozie. Live photoshoot + live concert. You are invited – please tune in to www.chasejarvis.com/live.
For starters, my guest on the show is one of my favorite emerging bands, We Are Augustines. This talented & hardworking Brooklyn-based trio is not to be missed. I latched onto them via a good friend of mine John Richards – a tastemaking KEXP DJ from Seattle who was the first to play half of the music on your ipods right now. We Are Augustines have an amazing sound, an incredibly moving story behind the band, and we’re catching these guys as a groundswell brews around them… In short, you can see them first here.
We’ll kick off the show with our tell-all Q&A/interview fused with an intimate 3 or 4 song set. From there, we’ll break right into a LIVE photoshoot. I’ll be shooting promotional materials for the band–multiple sets, natural and studio lighting, casual, informal, and experimental. There is no “client”. Just me and the band. Watch the set building, the styling, the shooting, the digital asset management, the gear, all of it. And you’ll be able to ask questions of anybody and everybody on set-–all 20 of us–-via my twitter handle (@chasejarvis) and using hashtag #cjlive. UPDATE: BTW, assuming the band are cool with it, I’ll be giving away some signed Polaroid prints that I shoot that day. Have to watch live to pick up one of those.
Who: You, Me, & We Are Augustines
What: An intimate concert + LIVE photoshoot. And taking your questions the whole time via twitter
When: this coming Wednesday, April 27th at 11:00am Seattle time (2pm NYC or GMT -8)

Great vid from Matteo here!
Come one, come all. The more the merrier – see you on Wednesday.
Is it possible to watch a replay of this shoot? I was not able to catch it live, and I hope I didn’t completely miss out!
Amazing… some things change your life… and this was one of them…
Chase + Crew and We Are Augustines… I Thank you for the combo blast of talent and inspiration.
After watching every minute of the live photoshoot, It is clear that Chase is really pasionate about his work.
These live events are not something that he does half-heartedly just as a self-promotion tool. If he did it like that, it would show.
I also find interesting that he is not “ashamed” to work with natural light or a very simple strobe setup. I have seen many commercial photo shoots that use an outrageous overkill of lights, stands, gobos, monitors, cameras, lenses and assistants, just to create a feeling of “professionalism” and “justifiied big bucks spending”. Photography is about the final image, not about the time and effort it takes you to arrive there. It shouldn’t matter if it takes you five minutes or five days, but many photographers feel that they should put together a circus act at every commercial shoot, only to justify their fee…
Chase, you’ve done great work… thank you very much for sharing !
