The duo behind Benni Creative

This week I took 5 with two of my best friends KJ & Logan AKA Dan, the power couple & creatives behind Benni Creative. 

SHOP THE LOOK

KJ weras The Capri Shirt & Aggie Pant in pink

I am so grateful to have had these two shoot each häll störe collection so far, effortlessly bringing my vision to life - always full of ideas, inspiration & their own creative flare.

I am lucky enough to have known these two for the past 10 years. The ocean dwelling, photo snapping duo are always capturing life through their eyes & it's bloody beautiful.
