Hi, I am Benjamin.

I document people who dare to live by their own rules.

Based in Vienna, I work as a photographer and documentary filmmaker — moving between still photography and film, always driven by the same question: What does it look like when someone has to fight for their place in this world?

My work focuses on margins and contradictory coexistence — informal markets, peripheral streets, communities that build their own economies outside the visible city. I am drawn to places where survival and dignity go hand in hand through self-determination.

I have been self-employed since late 2023, though photography has been a constant in my life since my teenage years — a way of seeing long before it became a way of working.
