It all began when I met Beto O'Rourke, Jody Casey (Campaign Manager), and his team in Austin during Beto’s first road trip while “town halling” across Texas in August 2017. I began documenting as much of the campaign as I could and along the way met so many amazing fellow artists and volunteers, whose stories have forever changed my life. By including the collective experiences of other photographers, artists, designers and volunteers, I have gained a much greater understanding of why Beto’s campaign was different.
Beto and his staff’s focus on shared valuing, listening, respecting, and empowering came through in every single interaction. It was a game-changing campaign that spread like wildfire. The campaign became a palpably heartfelt pursuit by everyone involved. I will carry these lessons and stories with me from here forward and apply them in any way I can to my life and campaign experiences.
Although Beto didn’t carry the day in this Senate race, he carried the year with his message of change and optimism from his spot at the top of the ballot. Once again Texas is a two-party state, up and down the ballot, and Texas is ground zero in the 2020 election with Beto positioned as a key player at the national level.
Although only a fragment of what was an eff ort by millions of Texans, I hope my contribution here is a way of honoring and giving back to the tireless campaign staff, volunteers, artists, designers, and photographers I now call friends. And to those who haven’t met Beto yet, it is my privilege to introduce him in these pages.

Review
"This book inspires us to connect not only to Beto’s extraordinary impact and journey, but the role each of us played in it as well. A campaign is made up of stories — not just of the candidate, but of everyone he seeks to represent. Casey Chapman Ross reminds us of those stories — how they inspired our belief in Beto, our belief in each other and our belief that we have the power to make change."
-Wendy Davis, Former Texas State Senator / Founder, Deeds Not Words
"The Beto O’Rourke senate campaign was an exciting, energizing, happy Texas experience that brought people together, pushed them to work for a cause they loved and taught that listening to people is still a powerful way to connect us. Casey Chapman—Ross’s collection, “True to Form”, captures that excitement and energy. The book and the pictures are more than great photos and stories (and they are great). They’re more than a simple reminder of the candidate, the people and the efforts. They bring the experience to life again. You feel the participation and the intimacy of the time, the effort and the strong pull of the people. It’s a tribute to the cause and the Texans who played a role."
-Kirk Watson, Texas Senate President Pro Tempore, 86th Legislative Session
“'True to Form” is a tenderly constructed tribute to the moment in time when Texans from the panhandle to the border found something deeper and sweeter than victory—we found each other. And together we found that we are capable of more than any one of us had ever imagined. These pages are only the first chapter in an epic story that we are all still writing."
-Becky Bullard, Rouser TX
"As a photographer, Casey is a once in a generation talent! I've known her since she was a toddler. I'm biased but I'm not wrong."
-Clay Jenkins, Dallas County Judge
