MEET KIRKLAND
Hey! My name is Kirkland, founder of K-Benson Studio! It all started when I was a child. I received my most favorite Christmas gift which was a camcorder. I recorded absolutely everything and developed an obsession with film. When I was in 8th grade I noticed some of my peers taking portraits of their friends, so I decided to give it a shot. This was the moment I realized that my passion went beyond a camcorder.
Overtime, my desire for videography faded as my passion for photography grew stronger. However, during sophomore year of high school, my mom and I were signing up for potential electives I could take. Out of the many electives, there were only two available: film and culinary. Let’s just say I wasn’t allowed in the kitchen… so I chose film. I let the classes go by while not giving it too much effort towards it at all. But one day, an opportunity arose to serve on the media team at my church, and I hesitantly took it. I then slowly, but surely fell in love with media and content creation all over again.
Towards the end of senior year of high school I met this gorgeous woman named Ashley whom I now have the privilege of calling my wife. She has got to be one of the most influential people in my life. Every time I felt like giving it all up she pushed me and encouraged me to keep going forth, and that’s why I am here doing what I am doing today.
As I continue in this journey of life, I find my best interest in helping people grow in whatever way I can. I desire to be not just another photographer or videographer, but to be that one person who will go above and beyond to make sure people are getting exactly what they need in order to represent and become the best version of themselves in whatever niche they are in.
Did I mention I love Dallas Texas? That’s my favorite place to be in the world. If anybody wants to send me there please do immediately!
