Ray has always been a bit different. He grew up in the Canadian Rocky Mountains raised by crazy hippie parents, Ray was homeschooled… Really he just spent a lot of time outside. At the age of 14, he moved with his family onto a 45-foot sailboat in Trinidad, and set sail on the "Mangwana".

As they sailed around the world, Ray trained in martial arts and took plenty of photos. 40 countries and nearly 7 years later, he dried out a bit in Europe, and started shooting professionally. As a life long athlete and explorer, Ray’s primary focus is on action and adventure.

He splits his time between high profile commercial work, and expeditions to amazing places with intense people. He tries to keep things a bit different. Ray is currently based in Munich, Germany... though you will rarely find him at home.

Antarctica, Japan, Greenland, Alaska and many other mind blowing destinations. I have had a beautiful opportunity to travel to these very exotic places with my camera.

When I was finishing high school in 1998, I never thought I would live outside the Finland, but a year after completing my army service I decided to spend a season in Verbier, Switzerland. To make it happen I worked really hard as a courier in Helsinki. Long days and overtime finally paid off and I was able to pack my snowboard and Canon EOS 500 camera and make my dream come true.

After the rent my daily budget was 12 euros to buy food and drinks. It doesn’t sound like much but we ate and partied hard for five months thanks to basic cooking skills and the cheap wine in Switzerland. Whenever we went skiing and snowboarding I brought my camera along. After that first season I sold my first photo to a magazine.

The next winter, I returned to Verbier and decided I wanted to be a professional photographer. I took photos with a few professional skiers and snowboarders and suddenly I was getting deals with brands and magazines. In 2011 I had around 1000 of my photos published in magazines.

I live in Volleges a small village 20 minutes from Verbier. I am married and I have two kids. I hardly take any ski or snowboard photos anymore but it will always be a big part of my life. I spend a lot of time with my family, you could say that I am a house dad now. I still take photos but not as extreme as before.

Filming, directing and producing has become part of my job in the past years. I like new challenges and try to bring my creativity and passion into the work I do. Since I was born in East Helsinki 42 years ago a lot has happened to me but the most important thing, I have learnt is to enjoy my life.

Tim is a world renowned photographer and videographer.

Born in Nagano Prefecture in 1978, he spent his formative years immersed in the counterculture of the 1990s, where his self-expression bloomed. As both an observer and a participant in snowboard culture, he has been shooting snowboarding and its active community around the world since 1998.

For the last 20 years, he has followed this community of people who place snowboarding at the center of their lives, in a kind of "New Tribal Life" - a snow-based tribe that appeared at the end of the 20th century.

Additionally, central themes in his principal works to date include; "Snow Meditation" focusing on the synchronicity of 'snow' and 'mind-heart'; "Memory of Water" focusing on Arctic glaciers with the theme of circulation of water and the memory of life. Throughout his creative journey, he strives to explore artistic expression and seek the harmony between nature, culture and the shining brightness of life on this planet.

Vegard is the stereotypical skier gone shooter from Norway. Only with a twist, having taken it all the way from shooting Special Forces in Afghanistan to working with advertising in Hollywood and everything between.

All in the same time while working steadily as a staff shooter for Norway’s #1 skiing magazine, Fri Flyt, and making Norways biggest MTB bike festival, Hillbilly Huckfest with a few friends in the summer.

His sports and outdoor background has lead him into shooting for some of the biggest brand names within the industry. He now keeps pushing his photography further by experimenting a lot with green screen techniques and composites for his advertising work, while staying true to portraying the action he shoots and making sure the movement and sports aspect of it looks good.

Born in 1985 he’s still young in the industry, but with an agent in LA he’s pushing his own boundaries and working hard to make the next big step into the US market.
