It’s a miracle where my life is today. I’ve been to hell and back a few times in my life. Everything I prayed for in the past 10 years every time I hit a bottom has come to fruition… for example I have my daughter in my life who is just a perfect little human. I have a career that I love and that loves me back. It has been the first thing in my life I found that I could apply my “street hustle” to. And I’m just super grateful for where my life is at and for everyone in it. I love you. by @rayfuentes714
On my birthday four years ago, i heard from my daughter for the first time since she was three years old so my birthdays have been extra special ever since. I threw it out into the universe years ago that one day once me and Jurnee were reunited that we would go to Disneyland together. And on my 44th birthday, my wish was granted. It took only 18 years, but better late than never. Today was a very special day for me. Thank you to my daughter for entertaining me and making my wish come true. Love you more than you know! Thank you everyone for all the birthday wishes and love. #disneyland by @rayfuentes714
Words cannot even express how I feel right now. Ive been waiting for this day for a very long time. My heart is filled with so many emotions but most importantly it is filled with gratitude. Tonight was the first time seeing my daughter pretty much since she was 3 years old. And her mom unfortunately passed away from breast cancer a year and a half ago. But what matters now... is that we are starting to build this beautiful relationship ever since she reached out to me on my birthday a few weeks ago. I love you so much Jurnee Wornee. by @rayfuentes714
One of the greatest gifts I’ve been given in this second life of mine isn’t the jobs, the places I’ve been, or the people I’ve worked for. It’s the friendships I’ve made along the way. Somewhere between the long days, early calls, stressful moments, and endless laughs, coworkers become friends, and friends become family. by @rayfuentes714
Early wrap filming at The Grove 🎬 Then a spontaneous lunch with @ioannes.noel, and the most unexpected random run-in with one of my all-time faves, @duffers66! Some days are just better than others! 🙏 by @rayfuentes714
Some people knew me at my worst. Others have only known me at my best. But every chapter of my life has always been defined by the people who were a part of it. And who didn’t give up on me. by @rayfuentes714
Last night, I witnessed something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. The unimaginable pain CJ was experiencing standing just a few feet away from the lifeless body of his younger brother. No words could ever describe that kind of heartbreak. It still feels unreal to me. I met Eric in 2018 on my very first travel job for a commercial for Marriott as a PA, from Phoenix to Boise. That same job introduced me to Dave Dean, who helped shape my career as an Assistant Director. Somewhere along the way, we became more than friends and coworkers. We all became family. Rest in peace, Eric. Thank you for being part of my story. You’ll always be family. 🕊️❤️ by @rayfuentes714
The older I get, the more I realize just how fragile life really is. I’ve lived through things that changed me forever. I’ve lost people I never imagined living without, missed years and moments I’ll never get back, and learned some of life’s hardest lessons the hard way. If there’s one thing life has taught me, it’s that time doesn’t wait for anyone. I’ve spent years trying to make up for lost time, rebuilding myself, and becoming a better version of the person I used to be. And through it all, I’ve realized that none of us really knows how much time we have left. We hold on to pride, let misunderstandings turn into years of silence, and convince ourselves there will always be another opportunity to make things right. But sometimes that opportunity never comes. I’ve made mistakes. I’ve lost people. I’ve had to learn how to live with things I can’t change. And if I could go back, there are moments I would’ve held on to a little longer and conversations I would’ve handled differently. At this point in my life, I don’t care about being right as much as I care about being at peace. I value genuine connections, loyalty, forgiveness, and the people who show up when it matters. Because at the end of the day, the most painful thing isn’t always losing someone. Sometimes it’s realizing how much time you thought you had left with them. Life is short. Love your people. Make things right while you still can. Two deaths back to back of people I love is a lot. Tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. 🕊️ by @rayfuentes714
Another day at the office from Texas to Seattle. 🎬🏔️🐻 Camera cranes in the mountains, unexpected wildlife encounters, incredible views, and even better people. Grateful when we’re all together! @ag.rojas @forchela @kzr399 @lati76c @j.a.c.04 @cbas32218 @camillegarmendia @beamoney @chrisfoote @baby_bobby_phillips @gt555 @mossnow @mcshinville @alexx325_ @joseph_canon_600 Long hours, wild locations, good laughs, getting pulled over by the police, and a little Dodgers baseball in between. ⚾️😂 Not a bad way to make a living. by @rayfuentes714
Well… this was another crazy one! Got to work on The Rolling Stones’ “Mr Charm” music video with two of my favorite guys,@toddathompson and @overhypebeast. Rain, mud, a long day, and a little chaos… basically everything that makes a shoot memorable. 😂 And somehow at the end of all of it, I realize how lucky I am. Really grateful for the people, the crew, the laughs, and the experiences this business keeps giving me. These are the jobs you remember. The Rolling Stones — “Mr Charm” out now. 🎸👅 by @rayfuentes714
Getting to work on @oliviarodrigo latest video with @itsjustkennytaylor and @catsolen — was something special. And seeing Olivia post this bts pic with me in it is hilarious. Big love to everyone who made this project look amazing. 🎬🖤 My super cute niece also made a video for her which Olivia loved. by @rayfuentes714
I’ve been on a mission to get my physical and mental health back on track and it simply started with Chris telling me to get off my ass, go outside, walk and get some sun. 😂☀️ After years of isolating when I’m not working and gaining weight, those walks turned into workouts, better habits, and slowly getting myself back. Still a work in progress… but we’ve come a long way. I started at 265 pounds two years ago. And now I’m at 207. by @rayfuentes714
