BENJAMIN
CO//LAB

Ben Arnst is a photographer, filmmaker, and futurist whose work takes him where few cameras go. With 110+ days filming in the Alaskan wilderness with Nat Geo — to hunting and trapping alongside native Inuit and Iñupiaq communities — filming Emmy Award–winning cinematography for National Geographic's Life Below Zero, capturing stories that few can reach and fewer can tell.

Career Highlights: Ben began his creative career pursuing a life as a physical architect — in his early 20's hired to work with a team building the world's largest architectural composites and sculptural installations, most notably the iconic façade of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. He is now a digital architect: using the power of storytelling to build tech-enabled media systems, brand narratives, and storytelling platforms.

Passionate about the power of story to shift culture toward health, vitality, and a deeper relationship with the natural world, Ben splits his time between adventure documentary, branded content, and collaborating with impact-driven businesses and brands.
