About

Photographer Trevor Graves’ first photo was published in ISM, one of the sport’s early publications, when he was barely twenty years old—it was a 1987 shot of Noah Brandon and John Gerndt riding on his home turf at Nashoba Valley, Massachusetts. Since then, Trevor has been a crucial part of telling snowboarding’s story—traveling the world in search of snow; following the storm for as long as it takes; capturing the spirit of progression; scouting new talent; and speaking in a language of images. He’s widely respected for bringing an element of true creativity to snowboard photography. If the early 90s was an era of stock action photos, Trevor was off testing flashes on the deck of the pipe in the icy New England night and shooting his crew of East Coast compatriots like Todd Richards, Jason Ford, and Craig Kelly—creating a pile of unique, atmospheric photos that stand on their own even today. In 1998, Trevor founded Nemo Design in Portland, Oregon along with designers Jeff Bartel and Chris Hotz. This “little” design firm has outgrown two different office spaces and can easily be called a creative hub of Portland. Nemo provides services including, motion, web, photo, and traditional graphic design.
