More about Ben P....
What do you love about your job?
Being a photographer allows me to share my perspective with the world. From a professional realm, I get to brainstorm creative ideas with my clients and then bring the concept to life by creating visual art. There is no better feeling than overdelivering on a project with already high expectations. I love being able to help small businesses promote and sell products that I too am passionate about.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
One of my most memorable commercial shoots was for an up and coming writer/personality. The images were to be used in her debut book which later became Australia's best selling book of 2016. I shot the cover of the book in a forrest scene down in the south west and the family portraits throughout the book were shot on the south coast of WA. This shoot was made special by placing a huge emphasis on the power and strength needed for motherhood. The images continued a strong matriarchal theme which perfectly flowed into the eventual title of the book "Like A Queen".
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I have had numerous images published on covers of magazines and books.
