MEET
BEN
SHIRK
Photographic Artist
Ben is an artist who stumbled into the world of photography and fell in love with it. Capturing the human form has always been his passion. Always a pencil in hand when he was young, drawing whatever he dreamed about. Ben spent years drawing the people around him… always trying to capture the moment on paper. Studying nuances in the way an arm bent or the how the curls of someone’s hair fell across their nose. Fascinated how a single line could completely change the way something looked.
By fusing photography and digital art, Ben has unleashed his creativity. He looks forward to learning about each and every one of his clients and their interests and telling their unique story through creative portrait art.
Ben is 1 of only 5 photographers in the world to ever to be named a PPA Double Diamond Photographer of the Year. And he is the only photographer in the world to be a top 3 finalist in 3 different categories in the World Photographic Cup (in which he walked away with 2 golds and 1 silver in the same year).
