Welcome. I’m Ben.

A Trusted COLLABORATOR Behind the Camera.

Partnering with you to reflect the emotion and atmosphere that fuel and strengthen your organization.

I create honest imagery for people and the organizations they build.

Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I'm a commercial photographer, director, and FAA licensed drone pilot. I make stills and motion for commercial and editorial projects for clients across a variety of industries, from construction to cannabis to government.

My journey began over a decade ago with street photography, chasing light and shadow and those split second moments that turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. Street photography rewards creativity, patience, and tenacity, and I bring those same traits to every shoot.

I love being outside, always with a camera. In 2024, I hiked from Mexico to Canada on the Continental Divide Trail, a journey that strengthened my appreciation for meaningful experiences and the stories that shape us.
