Dance is a universal form of expression. The spontaneous or choreographed movement of a human body tells a story, reflects social commentary, can be a spiritual exercise...or just damn fun. (impromptu dance parties are encouraged in my family...) We are born with this understanding of movement. Babies dance when they hear music. Dance even transcends humanity - even animals dance. Suffice to say I've had a long love-affair with capturing human movement in still photography,...

"Black Friday - When people trample others for cheap products mere hours after being thankful for what they already have." So goes the popular meme making the rounds on the Web this time of the year. Black Friday is the proverbial train wreck. I'm mostly inclined against it, since holiday season isn't about consumerism, but I don't pretend to be outside it. I will walk the...

For my USA friends, tomorrow is our Thanksgiving holiday where we traditionally give thanks for all that we have in life: friends, family, individuality - whatever it might be to his or her own... And I love to invite our international friends to join us in this celebration. While I normally invoke a more serious tone for this holiday - one filled with true, humble, gratitude - today is all that, but I couldn't help...

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.

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...

Hey friends - want to take a second to re-introduce Erik, my on-staff video guru. He's been with us for a few years now and, as a film school grad and long time commercial shooter, his opinions are a great asset to my own. One thing we've both agreed to lately? That GoPro is an amazing company and--it's becoming increasingly clear--they really understand what their consumers want. So I'm kicking this one to E-rock (affectionate...

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...
