We had the good fortune of connecting with Chase Rossman and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Chase, career-wise, where do you want to be in the end?
The end goal is to create impact images or visuals of individuals and athletes that has the ability to change the view point of around us, persons world, or how someone sees an item in the world.
Professionally at the end of my career – I went to be at a point where we are pushing the boundaries of an image from a personal level all the way up to giant com metal images but keep the images real and authentic! To me it’s about help a person see a different side to them or see and connect with vision in one image. Every image or visuals has the ability to shift a person life, how they walk, how they speak! Images are powerful communicators to the world. The right ones can also be the images that change a life or that a client keeps for a life time!
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I come from an engineering background and work this as my second job.
At first it stated out as a hobby but over the years has grown into something I value due to the immense impact my images are having for my clients in the real world.
It’s part of my way of life.
For most of my client they come in with a single idea but by the time we are done we can have 5-10 different ideas that all surround the same core connection.sit of the time it’s about building up each individual client and pouring back into them.
Highlight what they do well and giving them genuine praise that most people are afraid to day in real life!
The more I connect with them personally the better the images come out. You can take a client form never ever doing a photoshoot ever to making them feel, pose , and trying different movement based patterns in a very short time.
In most cases it’s getting them to the the state of “hey let’s try it” and that where the magic for each client lives!
This images have the pet to shape a perspective and usually sit on the cusp of I’m not sure but there is something here that I absolutely love
To me that’s what’s setting my client’s experience apart from others!
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Spend so what you are looking to do – I’m usually more into pole studios and finding the newest talent.
Most of that you can find anywhere down here. I’m always on the go try new events!
So try the bigger events or the events that you like.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
There’s a few that happen to keep me going. First is Maicol Osorio – of Maicol headshot. We built our businesses from the ground up and his support is amazing
There is Peter Hurley and the headshot crew- peters book shaped how I viewed the power of an image, his teachings took me and my workflow to another level.
There are others but those two keys.
