About Me and My Photography Experience:
Born in Toronto, Canada, where he grew up. He was never quite sure what he wanted in life and fell in to many things by accident. "
He played drums in a few punk rock groups, one of which was called the "Existers" that was produced by John Cale and another called the "Poles" that had a semi
successful hit called "Telex Love". In the subsequent time frame he entered Carleton University where he studied Architecture and went on to work in several companies
including Webb Zerafa Menkes & Housden who were best known for designing the CN Tower in Toronto. "
After a serious accident where he fell from a five meter mezzanine, he literally fell in to photography. "
His second ever shoot was an advertising campaign in Toronto. He was the first Canadian photographer to ever shoot Kim Alexis for the cover of Chatelaine. "
He moved to Los Angeles and stayed there for just over a year and moved to New York. In NY, he shot quite a few campaigns as well as the Dayton Hudsons Christmas
book with Andie McDowell, Elle MacPherson, Brook Shields to name a few. He shot several covers for Vogue South America. "
He moved to Milan where he shot for Harper’s Bazaar and Cosmopolitan. He came back to Toronto for a short staint and got back to Europe. "
It was suggested that he tried Paris. After six weeks in Paris, he was given an opportunity to shoot the Haute Couture for L'Officiel. Since then Paris became his basis."
He also is composing and writing Pop-Rock music for several artists in France."
Benjamin has consulted as a creative director for worldwide agencies and clients. "
He recently completed the “r” technologies “we-r-you.com” campaign as a creative & strategic marketing director."
Benjamin was responsible for the branding, marketing and advertising campaign of “we-r-you.com” social portal. Benjamin also introduced the concept of the “event driven
portal”, known as “r” events."
Life is an ever changing ever fluxing ride... to be continued..."

Thank you again, Deborah!  This is part of a State park called Putnam Park. It is part Revolutionary War museum and part trail system.  I can only do part of the trail system (back injury) but it is a really beautiful place!
