So, Whoisbenjamin?
After leaving school, I served 5 years in the armed forces and decided, "Naaaa, this isn’t for me." I’m glad I found photography back in 2017 though, as it has become the one thing that I’ve stuck at the longest. Now, I work for South Western Ambulance Service, and on my days off I love to shoot film and develop it at home. I’m also partial to photographing a good wedding.
The Adventure…
Photography, for me, is my drive to get out and explore the nation and the world around us. The coast is where I feel the most inspiration as I love the colours it can offer; the open landscapes and being next to water. Digital photography was how I learnt to use a camera and plan my compositions and in June 24, I took the leap into shooting film and self developing. This opened up a new world of fun and brought to me new challenges. Whether I’m shooting on my Nikon F3, Mamiya 645 or Fuji x100f - it’s when I’m happiest and thinking about nothing else.
