A strategically creative agency
Every brand has a story.
The good ones know how to tell it.
Benita Studios is a Brooklyn-based creative studio building brands with a clear point of view. Our team brings together strategy, editorial storytelling, design, and production, with a hands-on approach from the first conversation to the finishing details. With everything under one roof, we keep the process collaborative, cohesive, and connected from start to finish.
Across food & beverage, wellness & beauty, and lifestyle & hospitality, we work with new and growing brands to uncover the story only they can tell, define what makes it matter, and shape how it comes to life both verbally and visually.

Meet the Founders
Megan Forbes
Megan is a creative director, brand world builder, and collage enthusiast (with the scraps to prove it). Before Benita, she climbed the creative agency ladder, bringing identities to life across packaging, web, and beyond. Her claim to fame is a distinct creative process that we call The Meg Effect...you’ll just have to work with us to find out more ;)
Lily Wohlner
Lily spent five years in journalism, writing for the likes of Women’s Health and Allure. Now, she puts her way with words to work, crafting taglines, punchy on-pack copy, and Slack messages that make a compelling case for keeping thoughts inside her own head. Warning: she’s a yapper, so prepare to stay a few minutes longer on calls!
Talene Appleton
Talene is a creative strategist, writer, and producer. A former editor at Women’s Health and Men’s Health, she brings an editorial eye and a knack for storytelling to her work, helping brands find their voice. Off the clock, she’s usually at the park or shopping for vintage home decor (occasionally with a measuring tape).

founder of ByEla
“Benita Studios is a great team to work with from start to finish. They’re responsive, truly collaborative, and their creativity brought the IT Chips brand to life online in a way that feels completely us. I love our website!”
founder of ItChips
“You’re such a core part of the brand and I really could not do this without y’all!”
founder of Nomie
“From the hand drawn font and illustrations to hopping on a working session to get everything feeling just right, they put so much love into it all. It’s hard to find a creative agency that will care about the little details as much as you do but they did and we are so proud of what we created together!”
