Paige Beni Photography.
I am located in the heart of downtown Lawrenceville.
Welcome to my site where you’ll find all of my gems from itty bitty babies to Grandparents. Weddings to families. I hope to be your new family photographer. I live in Lawrenceville GA with my incredibly supportive husband, and our three kids. They are my soul reasons for living! Being married, a wife, and a mom has opened my eyes to the family world. I can relate to many different situations and I understand little ones, I relate. I have learned to apply my life’s experiences to my little customers, and families. Happy wife happy life, happy mom happy babies, excited photographer great memories.
I am fairly new to Georgia. We moved here in October of 2013. I LOVE it here!! We moved here from Las Vegas, NV. Vegas will always be home to me, but I have embraced the south as well! I have built my business here in GA person by person. Strictly off referrals! I am so thankful for each and everyone of my clients. Without all of you I wouldn’t be able to show my family that with hard work, dedication, passion, and support you can be successful and love what you do!
My 1,200 sqft studio is located adjacent to the charming downtown Lawrenceville. I have a store front studio space that is exclusively my studio.
My store front studio is located at:
430 W. Pike Street #B
Lawrenceville, GA 30046
I am a licensed and insured photographer. I offer in studio sessions as well as outdoor photography. Since Atlanta is SO big, I travel for sessions, but I am based out of Gwinnett County and I like to stay within reason to Gwinnett County. I like to travel seasonally for different types of looks for different styled sessions.
I am a published photographer!! How exciting is that!! Thank you Gwinnett Magazine for featuring me and my beloved business on the front page as well as in the trifold!! Thank you to Baby Model Magazine as well! My work made the front cover and center pages.
Just as I want to get to know all my clients, here is a little bit about me too:
I am completely addicted to Starbucks! It’s a proud, yet sad confession lol! Yes, they know me by first name and they all hold my business cards. My coffee helps me through my long days of being me. I LOVE YOU STARBUCKS!! hehe.. As much as I love the big star I have an in home espresso bar as well!! The smell of coffee makes my heart smile.
I am my dads only daughter and he is my hero! I hold him near and dear to my heart. He is always supportive and always an open ear to my dreamy big ideas and plans. He’s my light. He keeps my feet on the ground.
I am married to my boyfriend. He’s my best friend and he puts up with my constant need for change and is always helping me build props and back drops for you and my beautiful studio space! WHAT a great guy You may see him around, say “heyyyy”!!
I don’t sit still....ever. I am always on the go! Things to do, people to see, and places to go. I believe in love, solidness, and living life to its fullest.
I do not like clutter. Organization makes me flutter in happiness. The more open and airy the space the happier I feel. With that being said, you’ll notice my studio is very bright white and clean. I pride myself on your boutique experience and know my space is yours too.
I never watch TV... I watch my phone! I drive my hubby crazy. We have TVs in each room and I prefer my phones screen to watch my Netflix addictions. Silly I know, but that’s me!
I am a former Master Stylist/Cosmetologist. I still have an eye for hair and make up. Only it’s all digital now!! Crazy how times change. – it helps my business edits tremendously! I apply my knowledge in heavy edits a lot more then I ever thought.
My favorite things are being a Mommy, a daughter, smiling, laughing, outdoors, my camera, pink/black, cherry blossoms, gerbera daisies, sparkles/glitter, girly, make-up, dancing and having a fun time no matter the circumstances. Live Life to the ABSOLUTE fullest! Trusting that God had my back <3
I dislike driving, unmotivated people, waiting on things, letting my controlling self let go. Ha!
I love new people, places, traveling, and just living in general! I fear natural disasters and bad drivers.
I love the word love. It’s tattooed across my wrist. Without love what do we have?
I secretly do pet photography and have my canvases at a few clinics and grooming shops around Atlanta. Dogs smile too! Cats, not so much! Haha...
I am easy to get along with, love having fun in anyway possible, my jobs not my job it is my passion. I look forward to building my dreams to the max with you by my side!
Special thank you to my family, friends, and long time customers for being incredibly supportive and pushing me to reach for the stars <3 Come with me because this is just the beginning!!!
In my studio, no baby is ever “just a baby ”, no family is ever “just a family”, and no photo is ever “just a photo”
-Paige Beni
It’s my passion!! I never get tiered of what I do even during the busy seasons. I get to meet so many families and get to re visit with returning families. I watch families go from Engaged, Weddings, Expecting and having 1,2,3 kids. Growing with these families is the best!!

I absolutely love attending seminars. I recently attended a retreat that took me beyond my knowledge and forced me to practice my passion on another level. We explored lots of new poses for families that can be used for family sessions or weddings. We also covered Newborns and props. It’s was all such a refreshing update.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
My advice would be make sure you are doing your research. Better pricing is not always key. Remember this is an investment. If they are inexpensive they may be just learning, or not running a legal business. Please be sure to make sure your photographer of choice is full insured especially when handling your family physically like they would in a newborn sessions setting. Make sure they are licensed and/or certified to ensure the safety first.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
What they are looking for in a service and a provider. What their expectations and priorities are.
