who Is ben?
a doer of things.
Born and raised in the countryside of Northern Alabama, I was taught to be independent, work hard and think outside of the box to accomplish my goals. My friends and family know me for my active, sporadic and adventurous lifestyle that has led to many career opportunities. I’ve spent time as a director, editor, drone operator and designer for many companies around the world and I continue to push my own personal limits to better my craft.
Mechanically Minded, Creatively Driven
Understanding how things work is a huge part of what drives me to tell stories, make content and help others build their brand. I love to fully wrap my head around a process or product to then help others experience that same thing.
I’ve logged thousands of miles working as a content creator, drone pilot, camera operator, director and more. My niche for fast-paced content sets me apart with a unique eye and approach to delivering a given message with various camera technology.
My experience includes working with companies like Apple and National Geographic to working on movie sets of some of today’s largest films. My constant pursuit of unique, innovative and expedient work is what drives me to new levels.
The types of work I do varies greatly, but overlaps in one way or another - teaching me valuable lessons to improve my craft as I go.
What I Do
Video Production
Want to grow your brand, tell a story or bring a message to life?
Let’s talk about how I fit right in to your existing brand messaging or can give your story life from start to finish. I have over a decade of experience behind the camera and in the edit bay.
Drone Operations
Licensed & Insured for legal and safe operation
My years of experience date back to the beginnings of the UAS industry’s inception. I’ve worked with the best in the business on massive feature films, commercials and more as an aerial camera operator and drone pilot. My understanding of aerial operations and coordination will get you shots you never thought possible.
Design
Telling a story or growing a brand often requires more than video content. It requires design and creating other elements to help support the other pieces to the puzzle. I have experience designing logos, print, apparel and more.
