About the Instructor
As a professional photographer with a love of nature and adventure, Benjamin Grunow has traveled all over the globe with many Olympic athletes, capturing images and video for various ski/snowboard brands and magazines. He grew up as an athlete and learned to produce his own promotional videos as a teen jumpstarting his career as a professional skier. Eventually being behind the lens made more sense and he has never looked back. Ben lives in Elmore, Vermont as his home base on a family-owned farm. He captures action, landscape, time-lapse, astrophotography, wildlife, portraits and more. Ben's fascination to learn and see through the camera is his driving passion. He is currently seeking out remote places around the world to backpack and capture new compositions.
