They say, “Jack of all trades, master of none…”

Vashti
I’m Vashti Keturah Smith—call me VT. Raised in a suburb of Chicago with my siblings, I’ve always been driven by creativity. My background spans film and digital photography, videography, acting, singing, dancing, and even published poetry.
When I’m not behind the camera, I love traveling, being outdoors, and exploring the world—balanced with quiet moments spent reading, watching films, or creating art. Always curious, I’m constantly inspired by evolving trends in photography, interior design, and fashion.
Ray
Ray here. Born and raised in Miami, the 305 runs deep. Before fully diving into videography and photography, I played Division II college basketball at Webber University, where I also earned a degree in Computer Science.
Video production has always been a passion—from making family and travel videos growing up to a brief (low-key) moment of Vine fame. When I’m not behind the camera, I stay connected to basketball as a coach and private trainer, and spend my time working out, traveling, and enjoying good music, great company, and laid-back vibes.
