Today we’re featuring one of our longtime users whose photography not only raises the bar for performance artists, but whose own journey is a great story that gives a whole new meaning for the term “The SmugMug Family.”
Ben Rudick’s sister, father, mother, and stepmom are all Smuggers like him. There’s also a possibility that we might see some Rudick grandparents joining us, too. We love that not only are they all great, enthusiastic photographers, but that they share our passion, too!
Ben’s work comes from a love of theater and music, and the stunning but minimal lighting on stage makes for some truly beautiful and moving images of posture and emotion.





You can browse his other galleries to see more juicy examples of dance, music, and theater.
Thanks for making your family a Smuggy one, Ben!

Many more peaks, valleys, and everything in-between are captured here.
