Film Editing

From feature length documentaries to 15-second social videos, a great story is made in the edit. I often collaborate with the editor Renny McCauley for larger projects or quick turnarounds. He brings a sharp eye and deep storytelling instincts to every edit. Editing is about more than cutting, it's about finding the heart and rhythm of your story to create maximum impact.

Ben Garvin

Independent Filmmaker & Photojournalist

Each time I pick up the camera, I try to capture the world as it is. To listen without judgement, create space where subjects feel safe and heard, and be there for moments that highlight our shared humanity. 

Whether I'm on a long-form documentary, a corporate video project, a still photography shoot, or capturing a new perspective from above with cinematic drone video—I believe every story holds value and deserves to be told with authenticity and respect.

As a photographer and filmmaker, I know we hold the power to make a difference. I've seen firsthand how a single image or film can spark dialogue, challenge perceptions, and inspire change. I intend to use that power in every project I undertake. Let's create something meaningful together.
