BRF Photo · Photography by Ben Friend

You’ve seen it before.
Maybe you just haven’t seen it like this.

Photography of people, places and moments throughout the Midwest — made with a cinematic eye and a strong sense of place.

The way I see it

I photograph what it feels like to be there.

The people. The atmosphere. The details most of us walk past. Sometimes that’s a face. Sometimes a stage, a street, a building, a car or a landscape. The subject changes. The reason I photograph it doesn’t. I want you to see what I saw.

Work with me

Have something worth seeing?

You don’t need to arrive with a creative brief. Tell me what you’re working on, where it’s happening and what you want people to feel when they see it. We’ll figure out what needs to be photographed from there.
