About me:
Chad Hargrove has been taking photographs since he was in elementary school, using his allowance and birthday money to purchase film, Chad has always had the eye for artistic expression. After a skateboarding injury at age 16 Chad wondered how he could stay in the industry he loved while being sidelined. Chad took back to the art form he so dearly loved, and started photographing his friends. Within a year he started photographing professional athletes, and from there, he landed his first paid advertisement at age 18. He landed a job where he had the creative freedom to shoot photos all day, and started to network and shoot more adverts. By age 19, Chad had 10 printed photos in some of action sports biggest magazines. He then went on to get an interview in Blisss magazine at age 21 which helped him cement his name in the actions sports industry. From there Chad moved into the real estate industry where he started as the Staff Photographer with the #1 top producing real estate team in San Diego. After a year he left to venture on his own path and worked with some of the top agents in San Diego. As of 2021, Chad is now the Staff Photographer with the biggest team in San Diego county, and has photographed over 1200 homes with a hefty portfolio of multi-million dollar properties. He has photographed homes in California, New Mexico, and other south western states. He currently resides in San Diego where he lives with his fiancé, golden retriever and 2 cats.
