About Ben

Born and raised near Boston, I’ve been toying with cameras since I was 15 years old. After graduating from New England School of Photography, I joined the U.S. Army with the intention of documenting the impending Iraq war. As a combat photographer, I saw more than two years of action in Baghdad and beyond. While in the U.S. between tours, I served as both editor and primary photographer of my installation’s weekly newspaper.

I left the military in 2008 in order to pursue conflict documentation on my own terms.

My news photography has been published in the New York Times, the Washington Post, USA Today and many military-oriented publications.

I am based in New England and available for assignments. ben@photobrody.com
