Fory Hooste has been part of the Boise Gems family since the very beginning. A proud member of the corps’ inaugural 2021 season, he marched with the Gems during their first year, helping lay the foundation for the organization’s identity, culture, and spirit. After aging out of the member role, he continued his involvement by stepping behind the lens. Beginning in the seasons that followed, Fory generously volunteered his talents as a photographer, capturing the energy, emotion, and dedication that define the Gems experience. His work preserves the memories of each season and brings audiences closer to the performers through vivid imagery and thoughtful visual storytelling. Today, Fory remains an essential part of the Gems community. His commitment, artistic eye, and deep understanding of the organization—shaped by his own experience as a performer—help ensure that every moment, from rehearsal to the final production, is documented with authenticity and care.
