Ben on photography"The biggest thing for me is it gives me an outlet that athletics can't. I like to think I'm more of a lover and athletics tends to be more brutal, so photography gives me this connection to love and people that I really enjoy. I love that I can travel with photography. I've tried to work super hard to attract people from all over the world so that I can travel with or to them to capture their story in a unique way."
