Ray Demski is a Canadian photographer, director and DoP based in the German Alps.

Growing up in the rocky mountains of Canada, Ray always loved the outdoors, a passion amplified by the fact that from the age of 14 he spent seven years sailing around the world on a 45-foot sailboat. It was during this time that Ray picked up his first camera and ignited his passion for documenting the diverse people and landscapes around him, while also developing his skills as an athlete.

In his role as a Nikon European Ambassador, Ray continues to push the possibilities of action and adventure photography. Encouraging others to explore the world around them and always search for something different.

Ray Demski has always been a bit different. He grew up in the Canadian Rocky Mountains raised by crazy hippie parents, and 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 seven 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 action and adventure. Splitting his time between commercial work and expeditions to amazing places with intense people, Ray is currently based in Munich, Germany though you will rarely find him at home.

Born in a small town in the Rocky Mountains of Canada, Ray spent much of his formative years sailing around the world. At the age of 15 he moved with his family onto a 45 foot sailboat with nobody having any clue whatsoever about sailing.

During the seven year voyage Ray discovered his passion for photography. Forty countries and a lot of learning later he started a new adventure into being a photographer. A life-long athlete himself and action addict, Ray focuses his photography on action, adventure, sports and dance.

He finds beauty and power in the human form, working with athletes and dancers to produce world class imagery.
