J.Morgan Legreid

I’m Jacob Morgan Legreid here hailing all the way from Bismarck, North Dakota. I love Jesus, the camera, and my family, as well as longboarding sessions, deep conversations, traveling, tall mountains, tiny flowers, and all sorts of animals. I love life and am living it to the fullest, accumulating experiences rather than possessions. My only reason for being on this earth is to live out a relationship with my Creator and to tell others about Him.

How did I get into the media arts? When I was young I would always want to borrow the family camcorder. I just loved to play around with it. As I got older I bought my own cheap camcorder and started awkwardly documenting my friends when we hung out. I realized how much I loved being behind a camera, so I upgraded and took it more seriously. It really started developing into a passion. A couple friends developed similar passions and we started scripting and filming short videos together. These 2 friends and I started our own production company named Oniro Media, with the vision of making some money with this video stuff. That vision grew into more than that and the video business became successful. Our vision today is to reach a diverse audience and spread the love of Jesus through all kinds of media. Today I co-own Oniro Media with Caleb Hauff, every day doing what I love. I keep busy producing short films, weddings, commercials, and always looking ahead to the next idea. I am no professional, but every day I am learning something new, and I am excited to see what God’s plan for my future is, while still enjoying every day that I am blessed with. Do what you love so you can love what you do. Everyone has a God given passion, pursue it and live it to the fullest. It’s not about making the most money; it’s about living life how it was meant to be lived, making the most of every opportunity we are presented with. Walking through the opened doors and not getting discouraged by the closed ones. Its about throwing our agenda and plans away and being who we were designed to be. Live it out everyday.
