Ben Franke is our New York-based photographer and director who finds his German roots following him through his creative endeavors . If you’re looking for him he will most likely be found capturing parkour athletes who are jumping over 17 ft roof gaps or riding a bike while filming a group of bike riders behind him across the FDR.

 Our Ben loves capturing different subcultures of people and interesting characters, usually ones based around movement but also around a shared passion or vision. He loves collaborations that help elevate a project especially on motion shoots.

His work has appeared in the annual American Photography book, in the Communication Arts Photo Annual, in multiple International Motion Awards, and was a medal finalist for the Society of Publication Designers.
