Raise Media is a production company based in Arlington, Virginia, serving the greater Washington DC Metro Area.
I’m Ben Darius, the Creative Director behind Raise Media. I graduated from Liberty University with a B.A. in Studio & Digital Art, and I’ve spent the last decade helping people and organizations look their best through photography.
Over the past five years, video became the center of my work — capturing stories, testimonies, and events with a style that feels clean, human, and cinematic. I’ve had the opportunity to contribute to projects connected to NBC News, SixDegrees (Kevin Bacon’s charity), the Marine Corps Marathon, the founder of Ancestry.com, and many local churches, businesses, and startups.
People hire Raise Media to create content that helps raise awareness, raise capital, and raise engagement.
