JASON CHAPMAN

I am a photographer and filmmaker based in Salt Lake City, Utah specializing in outdoor and adventure travel. As a mountain guide for over 12 years I have developed unique skills that allow me to operate in extreme and remote locations with minimal gear to produce content that is both exciting and one-of-a-kind.

I provide photography, videography, photo and video editing, motion graphics and animated maps for commercial and small business marketing, events, social media and private commissions. Email me if you are interested in collaborating on a project.

Tell relatable stories that encourage and inspire the betterment of our personal lives and communities by showing that people are fundamentally similar all around the world through a shared connection to nature and the outdoors
