Art to collect. Photography created for you. Education designed to help you grow.
Benkis Photography offers several ways to experience our work beyond viewing a portfolio. From fine-art photography for your space to hands-on instruction and commissioned portraiture, each service is approached with the same emphasis on quality, intention, and individual attention.
Explore the options below, or contact us directly if you're not sure which experience is the right fit.

Our wildlife and landscape photographs are created as finished works of art rather than simply records of a place or subject. Selected images are available as fine-art prints for homes, offices, and private collections.
We favor substantial presentation and carefully chosen materials so the finished piece carries the same visual impact as the photograph itself.
Contact us about available photographs, print sizes, presentation options, or selecting an image for a particular space.
Inquire About Fine ArtPhotography education has been part of Benkis Photography for years. Mike spent approximately eight years teaching photography with Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and continues to teach through small-group workshops, camera clubs, speaking engagements, and personalized mentoring.
Workshops are intentionally kept small so participants receive meaningful individual help in the field. One-on-one mentoring can be tailored around camera operation, wildlife photography, lighting, composition, editing, portfolio development, or broader creative growth.

Some portraits should feel like more than a photograph. Our commissioned portrait work is built around the individual rather than a preset formula.
Mike and Amy work collaboratively on lighting, styling, atmosphere, posing, and creative direction to develop imagery that feels intentional and personal.
From polished luxury portraiture to fully developed conceptual pieces, the goal is to create photographs designed to stand apart from conventional portrait photography.
Begin a Portrait Project

Wedding photography requires both anticipation and intention. We approach the day with a combination of documentary storytelling, carefully crafted portraiture, and an eye for the atmosphere surrounding the moments themselves.
The goal is not simply to create a record of what happened, but a collection of photographs that preserves how the day looked and felt.
