About
Chase Weir is a photographer and filmmaker from Guam. Most of his work happens in the water, with mantas in Yap and Palau, inside the wrecks of Chuuk Lagoon and beside great white sharks at Guadalupe Island.
He has filmed under the Liquid Soul Industries name since 2012, and works above the surface too: aerial, lifestyle, events and documentary projects for brands, nonprofits and the Guam Visitors Bureau. He also runs boats out of Guam, which is how a lot of the ocean work starts.
