Hi, I'm Heather Bienz.

(Last name pronounced as Benz)

I'm an award-winning and published professional headshot, branding, event, school + family portrait photographer based in Fort Wayne, IN. In addition to myself, I have a highly dedicated and talented team consisting of videographers, lighting specialists, hair and makeup artists, a personal stylist and business coordinator. They are all rockstars at being able to support you in whatever capacity you may need.

As a small business owner myself, I have a passion for strategizing with local small business owners and entrepreneurs on how to best capture images and video that tell your story and market your personal brand, products or services.

Photography completely lights me up! I was voted Fort Wayne Magazine Readers' Choice Best Photographer Finalist in 2024! I love continuing to learn and stay up-to-date on the latest industry trends while also teaching everything I've learned to students, hobbyists and fellow professionals.

I host winter and summer photography camps for elementary aged children, teach Intro to Digital Photography to middle and high school students at the Homeschool Resource Center at Emmanuel Christian School, and provide online and in-person private mentoring to adult hobbyist and fellow professionals.

I'm also an actively involved member and Ambassador for the National Association of Portrait and Child Photographers (NAPCP) where I play an active role in building a thriving community of artists at a local level committed to growing their skills, artistry and business.

I live in Southwest Fort Wayne with my husband of twelve years and three children ages ten, eight and three. My in-home studio is available for professional headshot and children's portrait sessions. I shoot on location for personal and business branding, events and family portrait sessions.
