My passion centers on creating photographs showcasing love, life, experiences and real moments.

I can never have enough plants, I am in love with interior decorating, and I appreciate clean and minimalistic design and style." -JESSI KOSKI
RACE : CO-FOUNDER /FILMMAKER
"I grew up in a small and humble town in Oregon called, Scio. I discovered my interest for making videos in sixth grade when I started skateboarding. Before I earned my Video Production degree, I spent three years working and snowboarding on Mount Hood. During my youth and young adult years, I enjoyed life playing professional paintball, drumming in a band, skateboarding, and traveling. As my craft matured, I found myself filming all of these subjects of interest, eventually leading me to find my love for cinematography. Aside from filming, I like to explore mountains, ride powder, travel, shoot photos, and spend time with Jess, Zoey, and my Mini Aussie, Shasta." - RACE JONES
