If you come around these parts often you know that I have a keen interest in education. The fact is, in order to find success in a creative career or otherwise, learning what's most important and executing against it is critical. In short, if you want to kick-ass at your job, hobby, passion, life... you need to learn how to learn (see my homie Tim Ferriss'...

What: bike shot Why this angle: the air + the trail tells a good story. plus all those vertical lines kept the scene clean. Nice light too...looking up really "opened up" the image. Simplicity almost always wins - in this case it does. How: I laid under the jump and motor-drived the action at 9fps. we shot several attempts to ensure the rider was in the right spot relative to the rest of the scene...plus...

London photographer Roman Sakovich has hit a nerve - many nerves that is, including mine - with his recent portrait series titled "Half". Thru some simple but astute post production, Sakovich combines the two halves of a person...on the left 'before' addiction & abuse, and on the right, after, at full throttle. Certainly the studio photos have been enhanced, but the results don't waver. Simple photographs, compelling + robust narrative. Signs of good art. #Respect....

And after today, hopefully without legal turmoil, it will be. It's so easy to get disillusioned and discouraged by elections. The video above has been circulating the internet since last week and it struck a nerve with millions of people. A 4-year-old...

You've heard me say it before - don't sink all your effort into being incrementally better. Instead be DIFFERENT. Be BOLD. This episode of chasejarvisLIVE was focused specifically on this simple idea. And my special guests for this episode epitomize this 'different' and 'bold' mantra as well as anyone I know. Like all of my guests, these guys aren't ensconced in the "this is how it is" photo industry - they're innovators from a parallel...

The zombie phenomenon has slowly gathered steam over the last few decades, culminating in hundreds of movies, comic books, and TV shows. The fanatical zombie fanbase produces a staggering amount of content every year - fan fiction, films, web series... and photographs. "Zombies" are an ideal subject matter for the exploratory photographer: they present colors and scenarios not necessarily experienced on a normal photoshoot....

With the utmost respect and humility I wanted to share this collection of images of the devastation wreaked upon the East Coast by Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy. "Clobbered" was the headline in this morning Seattle Times, referring to Sandy, the "Super Storm," that's pounding the northeast. I just saw images and read a figure that there may well be 20-90 billion in damages as well as continued loss of...

Here's another joint from the Capitol Hill Block Party episode of chasejarvisLIVE we hosted back in July. Fresh Espresso is the delightfully dope combo of P Smoov and Rik Rude. These Michigan natives have been bringing beats to Seattle with their many musical collaborations for years. Most notably the MCs have mixed it up with P Smoov's other well-known Seattle group Mad Rad. On Fresh Espresso's latest album, Bossalona, P Smoov makes the beats, raps,...

If the best camera is the one that's with us, the camera phone wins for me (iPhone in particular, but I'm excited for all models). But let's take a departure for a second, because just minutes ago Phil Schiller announced the new iPad mini. // 7.9 inch diagonal screen // A5 dual core chip // Facetime HD // 5MP iSight Camera // LTE wireless...
