Rachel Von Stroup is an award winning photographer based in Fort Wayne, IN.

My signature style is strong and powerful lighting, both with natural and external lighting that give my photos a professional and crisp look. I’ve been working professionally as a photographer for 16 years, and first took up photography about 20 years ago.

I’ve photographed for BBC, Major League Baseball, The Guardian, local publications, and even children’s birthday parties! You can find my extensive list of clients below. I love photographing almost everything: from events, marketing photos, sports, photojournalism. I really enjoy the mix of different genres of photography, and that every day is a new challenge.

I am local to Fort Wayne, I have spent most of my life here, and I am happy to call Fort Wayne my home. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Communications - Photography from IU Fort Wayne, I graduated in 2014. I worked professionally for 6 years as a Staff Photographer for The Journal Gazette from 2014-2020 and 1 year at Fox 55 as a Video Editor. I have been a full-time freelance photographer since 2021. If you hire me you will hire a photographer who is professional and determined. Who is good with deadlines and who will get you the best result possible!

I love the vast variety of photoshoots I take on - from sports to events to portraits I love it all! When I’m not freelancing I also teach a couple of photography classes per semester at IvyTech College as an Adjunct Professor.
