Amada Ane Bennett

Founder/Artist

Amada Ané Bennett is a multidisciplinary artist, photographer, and creative entrepreneur whose work is deeply rooted in her Latina heritage. Born and raised on California’s Central Coast, her artistry reflects a rich cultural background, blending tradition with modern storytelling across visual art, design, and photography.

With a foundation in music, she studied at Allan Hancock College and later pursued music and psychology at Estrella Mountain College in Arizona. Her passion for the arts has shaped a dynamic, multifaceted career.

As the founder of Casita Amada, a carefully curated vintage store and creative studio, Amada brings her love of history, craftsmanship, and heritage into every detail. Her ability to seamlessly merge past and present has made her a respected name in her fields, sought after for her unique perspective and ability to tell stories through texture, color, and light.

Whether behind the lens, creating abstract paintings, curating one-of-a-kind collections, or transforming spaces, Amada continues to make a lasting impact in the worlds of art, design, and visual culture.

She currently resides in Austin, Texas, with her husband and their pup Viva. Together, they are active in the animal rescue community, fostering and advocating for homeless animals across Texas.

“I find my photography and anything I do in life to be unconventional, elegant, artistic, a bit edgy, and always from the heart.”
