Dani Benton Photography

I can’t recommend Dani enough as a photographer wherever in the world you or she may be! We recently did a trip to Puerto Vallarta where I wanted some professional photos taken during our trip. Little did I knowok maybe I had a small suspicion that my boyfriend proposed to me during our photo session to ensure it was captured while everyone had nice outfits on etc. These pictures came out PHENOMENAL. She got the exact moment he dropped on one knee and everything. We then did an entire shoot following the proposal. I am a professional photographer myself so let me tell you I am extremely picky. Honestly, photographers probably make the worst models. Dani did a wonderful job of both posed portraits looking and smiling but also including cute, candid and intimate moments. She was excellent at picking spots right on the street as we walked by them. She’s very communicative on how to pose and she’s super kind to all the locals of the area to make sure you aren’t impeding on where they live. She delivered a full gallery full of images that we will cherish forever. It was so nice to be able to share with family and friends since they weren’t present for the actual proposal. If you are wanting photos while you travel or even as a local to a beautiful area, contact Dani now to book a session. You will not be disappointed!

My boyfriend and I were visiting New Orleans from Arizona when he proposed. I wanted photos to commemorate this special event in an iconic city. I contacted Dani and she was able to fit us in for a mini session on very short notice. We absolutely love our photos and have received tons of compliments! Dani has a great eye for different backdrops and made us feel at ease. We highly recommend her for any of your photography needs!

Where do I begin?!?! I gave Dani ONE weeks notice about my friends’ upcoming elopement in New Orleans. She accepted The job right away and was so sweet about everything! Incredibly professional showing up early to set up and knowledgeable about the city. She captured the most beautiful shots and the pictures really embodied the essence of Jeff and Kristen’s love for one another and both of their sweet personalities. Dani is sweet, patient, professional, and most importantly talented! Thank you Dani!!

We came to New Orleans from Wyoming for our 20th Anniversary. We wanted to renew our vows and have a photographer capture the moment. We found Dani online and she was perfect from the moment we found her! She took us around the French quarter for fun photos! She is very intuitive and has a great eye! She knows amazing photo spots and knows what to capture. We loved her sweet personality and knowledge of this town she loves. Our vacation was perfect and our photos are perfect! Thank you Dani!

We hired Dani back in April to take couples pictures for us, she did an amazing job. At no point during the time we had with her did we feel uncomfortable. Dani guides us through the town and through our poses. So when we decided to have our wedding here in NOLA, Dani was the first person we thought of. Since we were coming from out of town she really made the process a lot smoother. She really went out of her way multiple times to make sure everything was taken care of. Her professionalism and attentiveness is second to none. We could have not asked for a better photographer for our big day. I We cannot recommend her enough and to be quite honest, she deserves ten stars. We will use her every time we come back to NOLA.

Dani is by far the kindest and most creative photographer we've ever worked with! We had the crazy idea to get married in New Orleans by ourselves on Halloween in full costume. We had never even been to New Orleans but we envisioned a photographer tagging along with us for the day to capture our marriage and to take fun photos. Dani blew us away not only by showing up in costume, but with her fantastic ideas and locations. Our photos are fun, candid, and sincere. Dani has an eye for seeing a space and transforming it into something magical. She was just as excited for our day as we were and thanks to her we have beautiful and hysterical photos to share with our family, and private quiet moments we'll treasure forever.

Dani took some fabulous photos of our small hotel and gardens in Guanajuato Mexico. She captured the beauty of the gardens and views to showcase the space to potentials guests. As well our small flock of egg producing chickens were caught in their best light!

Dani was awesome! Highly recommend her. My husband, and 7 month old son did a 30 min photoshoot with Dani in the French quarter for our vacation/Christmas trip and it couldn’t have been more fun. The photos are to die for and everyone who saw them said that those are the perfect family portrait. She’s so easy to work with and the photos and time we got them was very fast. The prices were also very reasonable. I’ve worked with many photographers in the past and she’s definitely very skilled of them all. I couldn’t recommend her enough. Her 10 plus years of experience speaks for itself.

Dani was kind and professional and a joy to work with. My partner and I couldn’t have hoped for a better experience
