I am a former Benjamin dad. My daughter attended the school for 10 years. During that time I began to take pictures of the Middle and Upper school athletes. In this endeavor I became familiar with the sports program and the many coaches at the school. It was, and continues to be, a pleasure for me to photograph the kids in action. However, the real joy lies in watching caring coaches not only teach, but mentor enthusiastic kids. The value of the program lies not in what occurs on the playing fields but in the personal growth of the players. Won/loss records are a very poor indicator of the successes that are achieved everyday by the teams.


I'd like to thank the school for giving me the access necessary to take these pictures. I trust every parent will find at least one picture of their child that they enjoy. High School is a fleeting time and for many it will be the end of their formal athletic career. It is my hope that in decades to come today's Benjamin student/athletes will pull out one of my pictures to show their kids and grandkids.
