Chaseism's photostream |
I'm starting to develop a style, atleast I think I am. I really love taking portraits of friends and the random stranger (when I get the nerve to ask for their shot...). I like expressing their emotions or personality in a single frame. Its a challenge.
I've decided that Steve McCurry is my photographic hero...wow.

"I am honored to be able to write the second testimonial for the wonderful photography of Chase. He has the amazing ability to grasp emotions, features and personalities through his street photography/portraiture. One could envy his talent, but once you get to know Chase, all you can do is admire him. I'm happy to have met a flickr friend and a meetup buddy! I look forward to seeing his photography grow...it can only get better!!! woot! Let's go get some coffee! =P"
