What inspired your first Benizo photoshoot?
it was a dream of mine to shoot with Ben. His Photos were always Mesmerizing & Inspiring.
Benizo has a way of tapping into the energy of the person you’re shooting – connecting & picking up on who they are & what they’re about. He’s a true empathetic artist, so not only did I feel a mutual understanding – but he truly made me feel as if the sky is the limit! There’s was an immediate comfort upon meeting him. I felt truly seen.
Was there a style that you were looking for to capture this Feeling inside?
His style stuck out. It was fun, Sexy, Strong, Empowering & Creative.
I could not wait to finally have the opportunity to work with Ben! Little did I know it would be 40 floors up in Vegas! You provided such a fun, playful environment that encouraged fullness of expression & creativity. I remember how freeing it was to do a yoga pose by the window (click photo below) and looking out at the city of possibility & play.
What did you think after your photoshoot?
It was a very Grounding And Glamorous Experience.
I remember that he had some great posing ideas to get started, & Ben offered some subtle shifts of the head, leg & torso while I was seated to begin to get some dynamic shots! It was a very grounding & glamorous experience.
My 3 Benizo Takeaways
- He encouraged me to tap into my sensuous femininity & to embrace that part of me. I felt safe tapping into that side of me.
- Shooting with him is truly a transformative & enriching experience. It will leave you planning for the next shoot. The 2nd time I shot with Ben I drove 2 hours from LA to La Jolla, CA & had another magical shoot on the most beautiful beach during golden hour before sunset!
- I would say go for it! Whenever you feel called or pulled towards something - to acknowledge that it’s for a reason & to not ignore it for too long. Set a goal & a plan for budget, location & when & in what capacity you would use these photographs for.
If you could summarize this experience in a paragraph what would it say?
My Feminine Energy was ignited & flying high after shooting with Ben.
You truly make every woman feel like the best version of themselves. Thank you for sharing your heart & inspiring women to free their hearts & minds & step into their emboldened truth. I felt the extra glow which comes from your inner creativity becoming an outward expression. And from having your inspiration and belief in me along the journey to capture the magic.
