Ben Vickers

I’m a United States Air Force veteran originally from North Texas, now living in Albuquerque with my wife and our two dogs, Ollie and Hannah. New Mexico’s vast landscapes and stunning sunsets have become a constant source of inspiration for my photography, encouraging me to explore and capture its ever-changing beauty. For me, photography begins with curiosity—a desire to explore and understand the world through my lens. I’ve always been fascinated by the interplay of light and shadow, and much of my work revolves around experimenting with how light changes a scene, transforming a simple moment into something extraordinary. 

Growing up watching my father in his darkroom, I developed a deep appreciation for the art and craft of photography. After spending 24 years in the tech industry, I’ve retired and now can fully immerse myself in this passion. 

When I don't have a session going, you will find me volunteering my photography services for Bernalillo County Animal Care Services, Albuquerque Animal Welfare, and The Department of Veterans Affairs.
