I just point and shoot,” states Tofino photographer Jeremy Koreski
when asked how he manages his incredible images. The 24 year old lensman
grew up in Tofino, and began his career taking shots of friends surfing.
After a two-year stint studying photography in Vancouver and traveling
through Europe and Australia, Koreski moved back to his hometown to
seriously pursue his career.
Forward two years: “I have a better idea what I’m doing
now, taking into consideration more influences,” says Koreski,
citing sharp shooters Jon Frank and Scott Aichner as mentors. While
his colleagues charge ten-foot reef breaks chasing their shots, Koreski
faces ten-foot wave sets in wind driven snow off some of the gnarliest
coastline that Canada has to offer.
Although best known for his surfing photos, Koreski’s limited
edition landscapes reflect his love of the outdoors and are undeniably
successful with both locals and tourists.
