At once simple and profound, the newest book by world renowned photographer, Chase Jarvis, The Best Camera Is The One That’s With You™ underscores—even legitimizes—the idea that an image can come from any camera, even a mobile phone. This is the first book of its kind. Inherently, we all know that an image isn’t measured by its resolution, dynamic range, or anything technical about cameras or photos. An image is measured by the simple—sometimes profound, other times absurd or humorous or whimsical—effect that it can have upon us. If you can see an image, it can move you.
One button. Always with you. Incredibly accessible. There’s no losing sight of the moment in front of you by way of complicated gear. Historically, writers have always had notepads and painters have always
had sketchbooks. But what about the rest of the world? For the 99% of the population who aren’t classically trained artists--AND ironically those who are--Chase elegantly reminds us that in our modern culture nearly all all of have cameras embedded in our mobile phones. The only thing keeping us from shooting pictures with that camera is an unjustified bias. At the intersection of fine art and popular culture, The Best Camera Is The One That’s With You™ tosses that bias aside and inspires you to do the same.
If you’re looking for visual inspiration or want to see what’s possible with mobile phone photography, pickup a copy of The Best Camera Is The One That’s With You™. It’s the world’s first photo book featuring exclusively images from a mobile phone. And while Chase has shot hundreds of campaigns spanning the globe for the best brands of our time, graced
the covers of countless magazines and the walls of international art galleries, what started with him snapping shots with his iPhone--and sharing them daily via his blog, Twitter, and Facebook--has evolved into a global movement. With this book, let Chase launch YOU into the brilliantly simple and exciting new world of photography at your fingertips.
Join the revolution.
