Welcome! I’m Ben Berninger — a filmmaker and photographer with a passion for storytelling through images. I’m pursuing my MFA in Filmmaking at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, building on degrees in Media Production and Communication & Business Leadership from High Point University.

From childhood, photography taught me how light and emotion can shape a story — lessons I now bring to filmmaking, where I strive to create work that feels both cinematic and deeply human.

Take a look around, and if my work resonates with you, let’s connect.
