Commencing Tuesday, February 21st, 2012, and continuing until who-knows-when-exactly, I will be reconstructing Ben Hauck online to a fancier version of the site.
In the meantime, this will probably look a little like a mess. While I hope to be back up within a week, these things take time and we’ll just have to see.
Once I’m back live, I plan on updating my News Blog.
Thanks for visiting!
Cheers!
Ben

On November 15, 2011, I shot with photographer Dario Acosta as a runner for a project he’s working on. We were aiming for gritty runner shots and portraits. We did shots of me running in place, and we did shots of me in front of a background made up of old tile flooring.
The shots were incredible. Dario will be taking the running shots and superimposing them over gritty exterior shots to give the sense that I’m running outdoors. For now, below are some of the portraits from the shoot. I’m really pleased with them […]

Today Aimée Davison posted on YouTube a documentary she did at the Occupy Wall Street protest in Lower Manhattan on October 30, 2011. I did the videography for the outing. Aimée was in town from Montreal for a presentation and we spent Sunday afternoon shooting in Zuccotti Park. We met some interesting people, captured some fascinating moments, and got a great inside look at the movement and movements of people.
