Lyndie Benson

Lyndie Benson became passionate about taking photos through her world
travels. Mentored by her close friend and legendary photographer Herb
Ritts, Lyndie specializes in naturalistic portraiture. She has a talent and a
fascination for capturing the truth in a single moment, a truth unseen by
the eye, but captured through her lens. Lyndie studied and worked as an
actor for over a decade and feels this is what taught her to find the truth
of a moment. In 2005, Lyndie held her fist major solo exhibition in Los
Angeles at Edgemar Center for the Arts. In 2006, Lyndie participated in
Gallery C’s first ever photography exhibition in Los Angeles which opened
to rave reviews. In 2009, she exhibited at Canvas and Roseark in Los
Angeles. Her work and exhibitions have benefitted many philanthropic
organizations including UNICEF, the Child Labor Project, Best Buddies
Foundation, Save the Elephants and PAWS- LA. Lyndie was the director
of photography for Maria Shriver: A Woman’s Nation Project. Lyndie’s
photographs have won two International Photography Awards and a
Women in Photography Award, appeared in many publications, graced
numerous album covers, and been acquired for many private collections.
Most recently Lyndie published a book called THE POINT (available on
Amazon.com) to accompany her newest photo series of the same name.
