About Benjamin

I am a photojournalist and DP/Director based in New York City. While finishing my degree in Economic Policy at NYU, I undertook an internship with Pulitzer-Prize winning photographer/director Vincent Laforet, and have been working for a range of clients ever since. I spend most of my days shooting freelance assignments for The New York Times, but I've also been sent on assignment for The New York Times Magazine and Newsweek, among others. My video work focuses on creating short films and branded content for a range of clients, from local charities and non-profits like City Harvest and The Visiting Nurse Service of New York, to more national brands like Samsung. I am also a proud teacher/volunteer at NYC SALT, a non-profit photography program serving inner city teenagers in New York City.
