Aerial Landscape Photography Porn – Iceland Style

Over the years I've kicked out a bunch of vids shooting from the skies on commercial gigs, like here, here, here and here for starters. But occasionally, on the heels of a commercial assignment based out of a particularly stunning location, I'll treat myself to some heli time shooting my ongoing aerial fine art project (personal work with dose of adventure). In fact, I've documented these adventures before — like here in New... read more ›

Iceland’s Endless Light – chasejarvisRAW

After years of finger-crossing and well-wishing, I finally got the chance to visit Iceland on a commercial shoot a couple months ago.

19 Behind-The-Scenes Photos from a Land of Endless Light – Iceland

chase jarvis glacier lagoon
What I remember from elementary school about Iceland is my teacher telling me, "Iceland is green and Greenland is ice." While I have not yet been to Greenland I can attest to the fact that Iceland in August is definitely green. Iceland - the well-known film and photo destination at the confluence of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans - has been on my list of locations to visit for seemingly forever. Finally had the... read more ›

ChaseJarvis_PhotoLocations_Nicaragua_SamSamantha_AmyRollo
Sometimes you have to get off the beaten path to find the real texture in a location. The truth is, locations that are hard to find will reveal new angles and subjects. Trust me, if it's hard to find and get to - it will produce something new and different. So, as they say, "Take a Hike." You will be rewarded. Nicaragua isn't quite Cancun, but it had become more... read more ›
