100 Words - Ben Harms

Hi. My name is Ben. When I read third person bios, I always wonder if people write them themselves. I’m working on a new business card for myself. So far it says that I’m a photographist, creator of awesome things, hopeful man and best parallel parker in Seattle. If I’m really honest, I hope you think I’m neat. I have few photos of myself, but I like this one. That beautiful women - her name is Whitney. I am her husband and she makes me happier than a lark. For me this photo seems to say just that.

CAPTURING A MOMENT

There are days when I feel like a thief. Like a fraud. As if I’ve taken this small piece of a beautiful story and robbed it from it’s full beauty. A click of a shutter to tell a story much larger than a moment. But I look at this moment later… this beautiful snapshot that points to something so magnificent and true and holy…

And this smile stretches across my face.

For I, a simple broken man, was given the opportunity to not only experience and hold a moment with others, but to help tell their story.

I am blessed.
