Benjamin Badyk

I am a Chicago based portrait photographer, specializing in fashion, beauty, performing arts (press and publicity), music and editorial related material. I am always looking for challenging projects, especially in mood lighting, character concepts, make-up and wardrobe.

If you like my work and would like to setup or discuss a shoot, please contact me (you can find my email address on the contact page of my website). Rates largely depend on the complexity, time and location required.

** I'm currently looking to assemble a team of makeup, hair and wardrobe stylists. If you're sick of the same, tired, uninspired shoots, let's talk - I want some serious challenges and an awesome team to rock them with! **

Some of the upcoming projects I'm working on:

Themed set based on stripper polaroids from the 70s

Facial closeups / Expert Makeup

For the purists out there, I shoot medium format film as well as full frame 35mm digital. (depends on the look we're going for)

I will entertain TFP on a selective basis, if you think you have a look that works, definitely send me an email. All emails will be replied to!

PLEASE SEE MY WEBSITE FOR MOST CURRENT PORTFOLIO.
