About Me
Ben Salb
Hey there.
I'm a macro photographer and OM SYSTEM Ambassador that's passionate about high magnification bug and spider photography. I only photograph living subjects and make sure to treat them with kindness during the process. I do not use any methods to freeze or chemically still a subject, even with high-frame focus stacking.
​
I'm a hobbyist that enjoys the craft for what it is, but I've had some requests for prints. If you're interested, please see the PRINTS page that links to my ShootProof gallery.
​
Thank you for stopping by!
