I’m a passionate photographer from Europe, now a homeschooling mom of two in El Dorado County, whose love for capturing moments began at age four with my first camera, burning through rolls of film and my mom’s budget.

I’m a passionate photographer from Europe, now a homeschooling mom of two in El Dorado County, whose love for capturing moments began at age four with my first camera, burning through rolls of film and my mom’s budget. When digital point-and-shoots hit the scene in the 90s, I was hooked, but it wasn’t until 2024 that photography became my true calling. Inspired by my own wedding regret—low-resolution photos—I vowed to gift my brother stunning, high-resolution memories for his wedding. Armed with a new entry-level Canon DSLR, I mastered its settings and haven’t stopped shooting since, upgrading my gear and honing my craft. Every click of the shutter is a chance to freeze time, tell a story, and create lasting treasures for my family and beyond.

I offer a wide range of photography services, including wedding photography, family portraits (on-location), corporate events, real estate photos, pet portraits and animal action shots (dogs, horses, you name it!). Each photoshoot is tailored to my clients' specific needs and preferences. I use the latest equipment and techniques to ensure that my clients receive high-quality images that exceed their expectations.
In addition to this, I am fluent in Spanish (soy mitad Latina) and I take epic quinceañera portraits too.
Photo delivery is digital; I use Pixieset to share your gallery with you, where you can browse the proofs and download some (or all) of your photos in full resolution.

At Daniela Benz photography, I take a collaborative approach to every photoshoot. I believe that the best images are created when there is a strong connection between the photographer and the subject. I work closely with my clients to understand their vision and bring it to life through my lens. My goal is to make the photography experience enjoyable and stress-free.
I have portable lights to bring on location for posed portraits, and I am equally happy to shoot candids with natural light, no set-up.
My editing process involves bringing out the colours in the RAW files, adjusting shadows and cropping where necessary, and lightly retouching anything that my clients request.
