At Anela Benavides photography, we specialize in capturing the elegance and grandeur of high-end weddings, creating timeless, romantic photos that resonate with the luxurious, romantic & modern couples we serve. Our ideal clients are those who appreciate the finer things in life—luxury brands, travel, and sophisticated experiences. They are adventurous souls who value family, cherish moments, and seek unique, unforgettable wedding experiences. Whether it's a weekend-long celebration in a picturesque location or a day filled with stunning landscapes, we are dedicated to making every moment extraordinary. We work with a select number of clients each year, ensuring personalized attention and a truly unforgettable experience.
Rooted in the vibrant culture of Hawaii, our team brings the aloha spirit to everything we do. As a Native Hawaiian, wife, and mother of three, I bring a unique perspective to my work. My journey began with capturing the fleeting moments of my own children, which instilled in me a deep appreciation for the beauty of life's precious moments. With almost a decade of experience and having served more than 150+ weddings, I have honed my ability to create a seamless, stress-free, and memorable experience for my clients. My team, born and raised in Hawaii, embodies the "aloha" spirit, ensuring that every interaction is filled with warmth, care, and genuine connection.
Our approach is not just about taking photos; it's about building relationships and creating lasting memories. We are not the right fit for everyone, but for those who resonate with our style and spirit, we promise an unparalleled experience. We are obsessed with traveling and exploring the world, and we bring the aloha spirit to every wedding we shoot. From the most extravagant venues to the most breathtaking natural settings, we are committed to telling your unique love story through modern, luxurious, and timeless photography. We strive to always create a stress-free, seamless experience, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the joy of your celebration. If our vision aligns with yours, we promise to deliver an unparalleled and luxurious journey.
Highly experienced team serving 150+ weddings & elopements worldwide. We connect with all things modern, romantic & luxury photos.
You can expect fast communication, sneak peeks within 24 hours, guidance in crafting your dream day and a hype team that is there just for you, every step of the way.

calling all my boujee lovers!
“Anela and her team made our wedding day perfect. There is not a single thing I would have changed. I would recommend Anela and her team to anyone! We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to be with us for the most important day of our lives, I can feel the moment's emotion. I see a memory of the best time in my life. Anela and her team helped make our wedding day feel and look like a fairytale.“
