Leigh is an absolute talent! She took family photos for us, for my daughters first birthday, and the scene was chaotic. She was so calm, professional and accommodating. The photos she produced were superb, no idea how she captured us so well. I have used a few photographers in the past, but never have I felt so compelled to find another reason for one to take photos again, like next month! Her turnaround time was a week, haven’t ever had photos back so quickly. Cannot recommend Leigh enough. Thank you Leigh for the memories 🌸 More...

Leigh is absolutely AMAZING to work with. She is prompt, professional and fun. She explains the set up easily, and then on shoot day, things work fast and efficiently. Her nature and personality makes you comfortable, but then the shots! Wow. How amazing, I have done a brand shoot with her, and am amazed by the results. Already booking the next shoot and couples shoot with her for 2021. More...

I did a branding shoot with Leigh and what a great experience. I loved Leigh’s professionalism and how she directed me to get the best out of the shoot. During the shoot I felt comfortable to be myself and appreciated her excitement and love for what she does. The final result? The images came out exceptionally beautiful. Leigh captured my depth and exceeded my expectations with the images. If you are looking to have a branding shoot done for your business and social media, then I highly recommend Leigh Benson Photography. More...

Leigh Benson is hands down my favorite photographer ever. How do I begin to sing my praises for her work ethic, professionalism, passion, flare, patience, artistry and just making you feel so utterly comfortable in front of the camera. She captures more than pictures, she captures moments and magic. Her work both in person and virtually have left me speechless of her incredible talent. Thank-you Leigh for being my go to photographer. More...

Leigh is amazing. From lifestyle to wedding shoots. I met Leigh early 2018 and she has been my photographer ever since. She helped me create amazing lifestyle content for my business and this year she captured my wedding. Absolutely talented!

I'm the Author and Influencer of Poppet Patch. Leigh has been doing all my professional shoots for quite some time now. This morning I received the pictures for my Father's Day concept, they brought me to tears. Leigh's talent is absolutely amazing. She is able to capture the true emotion and the beauty of the present moment in family relationships. Furthermore, she is a delight to work with, her turn around time is what she promises, every time without fail. She is professional and a listener. She delivers what I ask for and not only her own fine art interpretation of the shoot. I highly recommend Leigh! More...

What do you love most about your job?
I am a romantic at heart so being able to capture all the emotion of a wedding day is 100% the highlight for me. There is something incredibly rewarding to be able to freeze moments in time so that they are remembered forever.
What inspired you to start your own business?
When I was growing up, having family portraits taken wasn't popular, and I have almost no photos with my Dad. I wish we had more memories to look back on as a family. I fell in love with family portraits and I started my business to encourage other families to exist in photographs. I wanted to create beautiful artwork that would be passed down from generation to generation.
Why should our clients choose you?
I don't believe that photography is just about clicking a button. It's about so much more. Every one of my clients has a story to tell, and I want to tell that story with photography that is honest, documentary, and a true reflection of the relationship in front of my lens.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I always shoot with my mask on and keep sanitizer available for my gear and myself. Wherever possible I shoot with longer focal length lenses so I can keep a safe distance from my clients. Until further notice I am no longer doing newborn sessions.
