About this vendor
We are a hubby and wife ourselves and we've been photographing weddings together for 6 years now. Time flies! Our photography style is simple, artistic, and authentic. We shoot film (YES, ACTUAL FILM!) for that warm, golden look and images that stand the test of time. We believe in making our one, short life really count. That’s why we left high stress corporate jobs to chase this dream. And serving you, capturing your memories for a lifetime, means that we never have to second guess that decision.
We take a limited amount of weddings each year to really serve and be a part of your beautiful story. Our prices are upfront and transparent. And every product we deliver is a handcrafted, high quality, and designed to last a lifetime.

Where do I even begin to share how amazing Ben and Joella are!? Saying we loved working with them for our Sun Valley wedding is an understatement. Ben and Joella were extremely professional, outgoing, easy to work with and a joy to be with. We didn't want them to leave our wedding!! We planned our Sun Valley area wedding from Houston and were so fortunate to be able to meet Ben and Joella months before our wedding as they were passing through Houston on their cross-country airstream adventure. As soon as we met Ben and Joella, we knew we'd picked the most perfect couple to shoot our wedding. The day of the wedding, Ben and Joella were phenomenal. They helped our coordinators stick to schedule, they knew exactly what they were doing, they definitely helped with crowd control and keeping everyone on track, they shot all the best moments and most of all, they were such a calming presence for both Kolton and I as bride and groom. Having Ben and Joella by our sides kept us so calm and relaxed, it was as if we'd known them for years. They worked with us in getting all the shots we'd requested and sneaking off to the top of Galena Pass to get sunset photos with them was a highlight from the whole night. Our photos are STUNNING and we are blown away by how they captured every detail from our wedding day. I can't say enough about Ben and Joella, just book them!!
Not only do I consider myself lucky to count Ben and Joella as friends, but to have them capture our wedding was truly an honor. They heard everything my husband and I wanted and made the whole day feel effortless and breezy. B+J are extremely professional, warm, fun, and creative. They scouted out the perfect, quiet spot for our couple photos and made my family laugh while shooting our family pictures in the freezing cold. They even made sure that our guests took fun pictures in front of our photo wall! Our family and bridal party couldn't stop commenting on how relaxed and fun they made the day. Can't wait to get our photos back and pour over them with a glass of wine--because that is what Ben and Joella recommend you do. And honestly, can you think of something better?
Ben + Joella were incredible to have at our wedding. We became familiar with them during our engagement photo session, and then they participated in our wedding taking photos and helping to run the show. My guests loved how personable they were, and the photos are BEAUTIFUL. We have been so happy with the experience and final product of working with Ben + Joella, and we highly recommend them!
Ben and Joella are the sweetest! They work seamlessly together and create such a peaceful atmosphere on a day that can be (sometimes) stressful. Plus, we really couldn't have been happier with the moments they captured. They do their best to stay out of the way, so you don't lose the real moment just for the sake of capturing it...honestly most the time you won't even feel like they're there. Pictures were a huge deal to me because you can never recreate those moments. I'm so glad we went with you guys! Choose them and you definitely won't regret it!
Ben and Joella were amazing to work with and captured some wonderful wedding moments. They also were able to cut me and my wife a great deal on videography. Overall, they are very passionate about their work and I would highly suggest them to anyone I know.
Ben + Joella did photos for my husband and I's wedding (7/1/2017). They have a unique style of photography that is hard to find. Ben + Joella understand the beauty in simplicity when it comes to photography. Genuinely they want to capture the pure nature of their subject(s). They make you feel comfortable and are enjoyable to be with for photos. Their use of film photography is also a highlight. Film has such a soft and sophisticated look when it is developed. Ben + Joella capture timeless beauty in their photographs.
Ben + Joella are incredible photographers - a short perusal is their website can tell you that. What it can’t tell you is how amazing they are as people. Ben and Joella are seriously the coolest, sweetest, most genuine couple and it was such a joy to get to know them in the months leading up to our wedding. Not only did they make us feel confident knowing our photography was in good hands, they supported and guided us through the stress of planning and really wanted us to be happy on our day.
Your photographers are a big part of your wedding. They are there for all the most important moments, and they also interact with your guests and your family. We were so happy to have photographers by our side who felt like good friends. Honestly, they just felt like an extension of our wedding party. Joella even helped me with some pre-ceremony nerves and veil malfunction.
And of course, our photographs were absolutely gorgeous. The way they shoot on film makes everything look dreamy and ethereal, perfect for a wedding. Ben and Joella are amazing artists and that is part of why we chose them in the first place. I’m convinced they made everything look even better in the photos than it did in real life. They caught all the little details and some of the fleeting moments that were wonderful to look back on. The prints are packaged so beautifully, it feels like you are receiving something precious. It really makes a difference to be able to hold prints in your hands and relive the day as you go through the whole box as a newly married couple.
I feel so lucky that we were able to find Ben + Joella. Our wedding feels like it was really shaped by working with them and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.
We go to ALOT of weddings so seeing their style and approach was refreshing. Their teamwork and creativity brought a whole new demension to capturing all of the moments possible. We love the memories the photos bring back.
Ben & Joella were amazing! I couldn't have imagined a better experience getting our pictures taken. They were great with our kids and very patient. Even when the kids started to get grumpy Ben always had a way of cheering them up. We have had three go arounds with them and every time it has been a pleasant experience which is something I usually anticipate being stressful. The quality of their photos exceeded my expectations. Nothing throughout our photo shoot seemed forced at all. It simply felt like we were all just hanging out together. Thank you Ben & Joella for the lasting memories and we look forward to next time.
Joella and Ben not only produce wonderful pictures that are works of art, but they themselves are works of art as they produce pictures. They worked very well together, worked well with the bride and groom, and helped people feel comfortable and relaxed with them and their cameras. They captured strategic and amazing shots of the wedding. I was very impressed with their professionalism and how personable they were with the bride and groom and guests.
Ben and a Joella are the dream team! They are so talented, patient & kind. It's hard work to keep kids happy during a photo shoot. My kids didn't want to leave! They had a blast. I loved that Ben and Joella had me create a Pinterest board to be able to see what kind of photo shoot I was wanting. I found that very helpful. They hit all of my wants head on. Sometimes it's hard to put my style into words. I would recommend them to everyone for family photos or any event. We have had 3 photo sessions with them. Our 10 year vowel renewal and 2 family photo sessions. I have been blown away each and every time on how well they capture each and every priceless moment! These photos will live forever! Thanks Ben & Joella
Ben and Joella were professional, experienced, open, and extremely personable from our first meeting.
After determining our style and desired type of location(s), they painstakingly scouted for just the right spot. They have a knack for "posing" their subjects without their subjects really realizing it. With two cameras shooting at the same time they were able to capture many special moments, emotions, and tiny details we didn't even realize had happened until we looked at our finished photos.
Our photos are gorgeous! Ben and Joella are masters of natural light, and it defintely shows in the finished product. Even their delivery was done with special touches that warmed my heart and made us feel like we were a VIP client.
I highly recommend this amazing husband-and-wife duo for any occasion, and I'm extremely grateful they were able to document our wedding!
Ben and Joella were great to work with. They made me feel relaxed and comfortable. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience!
Ben and Joella first and foremost we're very professional. This experience started off great. They met with my wife and I before the session and asked questions to get an idea of what our style was and what we were expecting from them and if we had anything specific we really wanted to do. Everything was laid out and we knew what to expect. The day of the session, they were early and ready for us at our location and greeted us with open arms. They made us feel extremely comfortable the entire time. The two of them worked seamlessly together and got all the shots we were hoping for. We received our photos in a timely manner and in a gorgeous package with such special personal touches. I would absolutely recommend Ben and Joella Photography. Great people, great accountability, and great work.
