Welcome to the Benny Awards blog!

What are the Benny Awards? They are a party that we throw for our amazing wedding couples every year. Not only is it a party, though, it is also an awards show. We work really hard to narrow down the 30 thousand or so images to our favorite, nominating our couples for various categories.

What do the winners get? Real prizes! Last year, we gave about over a thousand dollars worth of prizes! From couture album upgrades, to gallery wrapped canvases, we found some really exciting gifts for those who earned the most votes.

Do I get to come to the Benny Awards? Only if you’re a current Benfield Photography couple. Because we don’t charge for this and pay for everything ourselves, we have to be selective in who we invite for this super fab, super swanky party designed by the impeccable, always amazing wedding planner Jenessa Bailey of J Bailey Occasions. You know you’re invited if you either 1) are nominated or 2) get one of our fab invites designed by the awe-inspiring wedding invitation guru Amy Hannon of Sincerely Yours.

If I’m not nominated for something, can I still vote? Of course! We want you to be able to support your family or friend or co-worker, or whoever! Or, if you’re just a random person who stumbled upon this blog, don’t leave! Stay and vote awhile! The links on the right are all 14 categories. Take your time, pick your favorite, and cast your vote.

If you have any other questions, leave a comment below or email me!

Lastly, let me leave you with a couple videos from last year. The first one is some sweet feedback from some of our favorite brides, and the second one is a slideshow from last year’s party. Enjoy!
