BEHIND THE LENS

THE PERSON BEHIND THE PICTURES.

I’m Ben Murphy, a Drake University graduate with a passion for visual storytelling through sports, events, and landscape photography.

My work is driven by the energy, emotion, and defining moments that make a story worth telling. From collegiate athletics and game-day atmosphere to personal milestones and city landscapes, I look for the details that take an image beyond documentation.

I aim to create photographs that feel authentic, intentional, and memorable.
