Fort Wayne Photographer: Bentz Photography - biography

In September 2005, Steve and Sara moved from their first home to a house in Leo just North of Fort Wayne. It took more than a year to find the right place, but it was well worth the wait. It was perfect to grow the business and offer a more personal photography experience to our clients. Amenities include three acres of property, a stocked pond, mature trees and woods and most importantly a 45 X 60 Morton pole building that soon would house one of the biggest photography studios in Allen County.

Construction to make the pole barn into a studio began; previously utilized by a landscaping company, everything on the inside needed to be removed, right down to the studs. Framing, drywall and painting followed as the studio started to take shape. Focusing on goals of versatility, maximizing space, and dynamic backgrounds all year long, the finer details became important.

Even though the studio has been officially completed since mid 2006, Steve claims the interior and exterior will always be updated to reflect the changing tastes of the client base. See below for images of our studio space and outdoor landscaping.
