Jill Beninato: Sit. Stay. Smile. Photography

Daisy, Cowboy, Wiley, and Clancy

Virginia Beach artist, Jill Beninato started her career as a metalsmither and jewelry designer. I don't know if it was her daughter or her four dogs (above) that made her change course, but now she prefers to "live in the moment" photographing pets and people.

I love her location shots...

Grrrr

...and her photos of dogs playing on the beach...

She is also doing some fun shots with her new Sigma 10-20mm lens – a fish eye at the end of a zoom. Perfect for wet noses...

With only 14 days left to shop, a gift certificate for a photo session with Jill would be an easy, awesome Christmas gift that will definitely get there on time. Order now. Christmas is almost over on the Internet!

P.S. Jill also has wonderful collages, digital portraits, and t-shirts available at her online store.
