Welcome to Pure Siskiyou! My name is Mindy Vela and I'm a lifelong Montague, California resident with a passion for storytelling through video and photography. As a local, I understand the unique character and spirit of Siskiyou County, and my goal is to help strengthen the connections within our community. Whether I’m capturing a local event, showcasing a business, highlighting a club, or celebrating a sports team, I aim to bring out the heart and authenticity of each story. Pure Siskiyou is dedicated to creating content that not only promotes but also connects, helping each voice in our community shine.

With experience capturing moments across a wide range of settings, I’ve had the privilege of working with government entities, local businesses, musicians, school sports programs, and private sports organizations. Each project has deepened my commitment to creating high-quality, impactful content that resonates with audiences. From promotional videos to event highlights, my goal is to craft visuals that not only tell a story but also celebrate the vibrant community we’re all part of here in Siskiyou County.
