You have a story to tell.
Whether you’re an agency with a bold campaign or a nonprofit with a mission that matters, your message deserves to connect with people—visually, emotionally, and authentically.
There are a lot of content creators. A lot of editors. But very few directors and DPs who can craft a story from the inside out, capturing its soul and shaping it with cinematic intention.
I’m Chad Rochester
I’m a director and director of photography who helps mission-driven brands, agencies, and institutions craft powerful visual stories that resonate.
I bring a wealth of experience across documentary and branded content. I lead with curiosity, empathy, and story-first thinking.
“Chad crafts narratives that bring out the best parts of each client's brand - taking the raw materials of a client's story and working it into a larger, cohesive campaign. He took our ideas and improved upon all of them, creating a tailored solution for us that really brought our brand and our story to life”
— Josh Cox, Owner, Brick and Beam
