"It's weird that photographers spend years or even a whole lifetime, trying to capture moments that added together, don't even amount to a couple of hours." -James Lalropui Keivom

Welcome to my new website. The general theme that runs through my photography is that of using the lighting in the scene and not augmenting it. In my day job I work in the entertainment lighting industry where the photos I am assigned to take are to accentuate the lighting used. It has taken years to perfect a system where lighting shows as the main feature, but does not drown out nor fade into the background of the image. I've taken this practice of photography and integrated it into my other works. My interests range greatly and my photography reflects that, from travel landscapes and wildlife to concerts, professional sports and architecture, and even a few cheerleaders thrown in for good measure. Please take some time and browse around. I hope you enjoy the site and come back often as I add photos from my travels. -Ben
