Hello! My name is Ben Katz, and I am an amateur black and white film photographer based in Providence, RI. I’m also a medical student at Brown University, with a deep interest in the intersection of photography and medicine as a means to uplift the voices of underserved communities.

My photography journey began during the pandemic, when I discovered my dad’s old film cameras in storage. Since then, I’ve been hooked. I typically shoot with a Nikon F1 or a Mamiya RB67, depending on the format. My work spans street, portrait, documentary, and travel photography.
