The Startup Creator by K-SWISS + Chase Jarvis

If you are a creative like me, you most likely have been following Chase Jarvis and his infectious positivity and entrepreneurial spirit for quit some time now. Recently, Chase and K-SWISS collaborated on designing and creating a signature Chase Jarvis shoe called “The Startup Creator”. Being the product photographer that I am, I was flooded with conceptual ideas and had to bring at least one of them to life.

Part of what I loved about this shoe, is the idea that if you can dream it you can make it happen. This got me thinking about telling this story… from idea/sketch to reality and including a bit of the behind the scenes element in the actual photograph.

Below is the final image, a look behind the scenes, as well as a quick video of how it came together in post production.

Chase, I hope I did your shoe justice. -DB
