Shoes are seemingly a small part of the wedding budget, but these Best Wedding Shoes nominees make quite an impact. I happen to LOVE shoes, even though I don’t know the difference between a pump and a high heel (are they they same thing?). Regardless, I know immediately when I love a pair of shoes.
Over the years, I’ve photographed all sorts of wedding shoes: fancy flats, wedges that wow, and perfect little peep toes. The shoes this year are pretty spectacular, and each were chosen as a nominee for a specific reason. I’ve been less about bold colors the last couple years. However, a bright yellow pair from years ago still sticks out in my mind (I’m talking to you, Andrea M!). Now, I’m more into romantic colors, or neutrals, and the nominees reflect my current taste. All that being said, I’m not claiming to be any sort of style expert. I just happen to like what I like, and these are some of my favorites!
Other Benny Awards Categories:
Best Engagement Portrait Nominees
Best Wedding Portrait Nominees
And this year, I’m adding in two non-wedding portrait categories for your voting pleasure! While I’ve primarily been a wedding photographer for the past decade, many of my couples have gone on to have families. As my family and portrait clients have grown, I’ve felt an increasing need to represent them in the Benny Awards! This year I broke it into two categories:
Best Family and Baby Portrait Nominees
Senior and Style Portrait Nominees

What are the Benny Awards?
The Benny Awards are an annual party Dale from Benfield Photography throws for his couples. At the party, the winners are announced for each category, such as best wedding kiss and best wedding shoes. This year he added two non-wedding categories because so many of this clients are already married and he wanted them to be represented.
