So I'm Chais (pronounced Chase) and I graduated with a B.A. in Journalism from the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism in 2018, but I quickly realized that writing wasn’t my favorite medium for storytelling. My passion for sharing stories never faded—I just found a better way to tell them through photography.

I’ve always had an affinity for photography, and it became the perfect way for me to capture the moments that matter most. My journalistic background gives me a unique perspective, allowing me to document candid, authentic moments that bring stories to life.

Based in Phoenix, AZ, I specialize in weddings, portraits, and commercial work, and I’m available for projects worldwide.

I’d love to help you share your story—let’s create something meaningful together.
