Hey there and welcome to my portfolio.
My name is Ben Seifert, and I am a full time software engineer with a passion for photography. Currently I am based out of northern Vermont, though I enjoy traveling for the right shot. When I am not working behind a computer, I am more than likely out on an adventure and behind my camera. Having access to the Green Mountains right in my backyard lets me explore Vermont at both it's most ideal and undesirable conditions. Whether I'm surrounded by snowfall, trudging through the mud, braving the rain, or basking in the sunlight, nothing excites me more than being behind the lens photographing the adventure in front of me.
I have always appreciated photography, as my Grandma encouraged me to get into it at a very young age. But as of recently I have found myself taking it more serious, using it as a means to express how I see the world. I take pride in capturing moments that evoke emotion and transport you right into the heart of the action. In the winter, this usually means photos of my friends and I exploring the backcountry on our snowboards. As the season shifts to summer, I trade in my board for a mountain bike, a fly rod, or a pair of hiking boots, always with my camera by my side.

NPS and VSP have provided me with many amazing opportunities. Whether it be a sweeping landscape or a single riverbed, getting out and exploring these spaces have shaped me into the person that I am today. I hope that you too are inspired to experience the wonders that they hold and can share it with someone else.
