I just received a very inspiring email. I thought it was worth sharing. I’ve changed or left out some of the personal details to protect the privacy of the sender. “Hey Chase, It worked. Everything you said worked. I declared myself a photographer, got business cards, set up an LLC, pumped out shots and handed them out like mad. I DECIDED this is who I am, and it's like the whole world conspired in my favor....

I'm headed back to New York city this week. The city has a unique way of pushing photographers and filmmakers to be more creative. The constant pulse of visual inspiration is motivational. My own work has been given the occasional Big Apple boost - in fact, it was just one year ago that I wrapped up my Dasein: An Invitation to Hang installation at the Ace Hotel. The mini-doc and some of my conclusions on...

Here are some behind-the-scenes snapshots of my time here in Brazil with Mike Horn. Although we are almost done here, our collaboration with Mike and the Pangaea is just beginning. Much much more to come. Pay attention for our next trip to South Africa in a few weeks. Click through some of the above photos to see what we’ve been up to.

I know that here onboard the Pangaea, with my friend Mike Horn and his crew,...

Commitment to your vision is important. Just ask my friend Mike Horn. I mentioned in my post yesterday (about imagination inspired by travel photos) that I was scurrying around getting ready for a trip with Mike. I'm running to the airport right now - and needless to say my imagination is also running with the thoughts of spending time with the...

Albert Einstein said "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand." Coming from a guy who had some serious knowledge that is a powerful statement. One of the things that stimulates imagination is, of course, travel....

My homies over at Flavorwire ran a really cool gallery of cameras made out of unusual stuff--like trees, shells, and--like you see in the photo above, a turtle shell (no turtles were harmed in the making...only natural causes of death...)... Which got me thinking: cameras have been along so long, people have had the chance to do some really weird stuff with them. Though a lot of manufacturers might have you think differently, the body...
