BenitoLink is proud to announce that Camille Mattish, our former reporter/photographer intern, has been named a winner of the 2025 WeddingWire Couples’ Choice and The Knot Best of Weddings awards for her outstanding wedding photography. This recognition was given at the 17th Annual Couples’ Choice Awards and Best of Weddings, which honor wedding professionals who demonstrate superior quality services nationwide and abroad.
“It’s so exciting to see my business grow so much this last year, and I’m so honored to have received these awards,” said Mattish, who lives in Hollister. “I’m really looking forward to seeing how my business continues growing.”
According to WeddingWire and The Knot, winners are determined through user reviews posted on the wedding vendor’s profiles. The two directories feature 20 service categories, including venues, caterers, photographers and officiants, and each year select the top wedding vendors from the U.S. and abroad. Vendors with a minimum of seven reviews with an average rating of 4.5 stars received the top vendor awards for 2024. As of today, Mattish holds a 5-star rating on WeddingWire and The Knot.
In addition, winners of the awards become members of WeddingPro, a digital platform in which wedding professionals showcase their businesses and introduce their work to potential clients.
Mattish joined BenitoLink in January 2024 as a reporter/photographer intern. According to her BenitoLink team bio, she graduated with a BA in creative writing with a minor in photography at Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina. She also worked in the school’s marketing department as a photographer covering events and taking student portraits. Mattish told BenitoLink that she has been shooting recreationally for about 14 years and began shooting professionally five years ago.
Camille Mattish Photography is a wedding, portrait and event photography business based in Hollister which began in 2021. According to her profiles on WeddingWire and The Knot, Mattish’s minor in photography helped her learn studio lighting, hand retouching and posing. A 5-star review posted in December 2024, titled “Perfectly Captured” on WeddingWire by Chiyanne, reads: “I can’t recommend Camille enough, so thorough and professional. Camille takes beautiful photos and edits tastefully. Hands down best photographer out there!”
