Hi!

Benjamin Braun is a photojournalist and documentary filmmaker based in NYC. Braun searches for and produces character-driven stories for longer and shorter-term work. He covers social issues, events, sports, breaking news, and portraiture for daily assignments. He strongly focuses on video storytelling but brings in-depth storytelling to all his work. Braun is attracted to making intimate vérité-style films and is a graduate of the Rochester Institute of Technology Photojournalism program. He is a licensed drone operator and is available for project-based and daily assignments.

When he is not working, he enjoys frequenting The MET (ask him about the tours), mentoring university students, trying a weekly new recipe or two, reading his overdue books, and spending time with family.

To connect with Benjamin,
