Ray Demski has always been a bit different. He grew up in the Canadian Rocky Mountains and was 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 two brothers and parents 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 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 on action and adventure. He splits his time between high profile commercial work and expeditions to intense places with amazing people. Always trying to keep things a bit different, Ray is currently based in Munich, Germany.

He has been represented by UPFRONT photo & film since 2012.
