Ever since I was a little kid I was borrowing my parents camera's to get the shot that no one else could ... That resulted with several cameras busted ... I have continued this passion ever since! There was never any other option, it was destiny, true love.' 'Everyone thinks that I just go out there and have fun, party and be a rock star, but the truth of the matter is what I do, it is work, it's a crazy amount of work, I absolutely love it, I'll keep doing it 'til the day I die.'

Devin started out just filming for fun with his gear on YouTube before starting to gain a steady following
"A lot of people think I just go out and have fun, and I do, but it’s also a lot of hard work. I made a video, Fighting for your passion—Inside look at what I do for a living because I’m asked about it so often. As I say in the video, I want to get the shots that no one else will get, and there’s usually a crazy story that goes along with each one. As soon as my videos started going viral, advertisers contacted me and wanted to get involved. I’ve recently done work with Ford and Mountain Dew—which has been really fun and I’ve been grateful for the opportunity to work on these projects. A few months ago Universal Studios invited me to fly out and use their backlot for a shoot. Again, I know it sounds glamorous, but there are a lot of other shoots where we’re sleeping in tents, getting up before dawn, and hiking for miles to try to capture a four-second shot."
