Karst Productions lives on through the memory of its founder, Wes Skiles. Wes founded Karst Productions nearly 50 years ago out of a critical need to photo-document the exploitation and decline of Florida's freshwater springs before heavy impacts were well understood.

Since Wes' passing in 2010, his daughter, Tessa Skiles, has reignited his passion, continuing his mission to explore, document, and safeguard our fragile freshwater ecosystems. With the same dedication and vision, Tessa ensures that Karst Productions remains a powerful voice in advocating for the protection of our planet's most vital water resources.
