Fort Wayne, Indiana
New photography from Fort Wayne: its rivers, parks, streets, and old buildings, shot on location around the city. New sets are added as they are shot and edited.
First Fort Wayne set shot Sunday, October 25, 2026. Photos posted here as the edit is finished.This is the main focus of this site. Every new set is Fort Wayne work, shot by Joel Cochran. Start with the first set below.
The Allen County Courthouse, the skyline, and the old storefronts on Calhoun and Wayne Streets.
Promenade Park, Headwaters Park, and the St. Marys River at sunset.
Lakeside Park, Foster Park, and the tree lined streets in the south and west of the city, at peak fall color.
The Old Fort, historic homes, and the brick and stone details that make this city look like itself.
Before Fort Wayne Photos, Joel owned South Bend Media, a wedding photography business he ran from 2012 to 2016. This is a selection of the best shots from those years, cleaned up and shown without the old watermarks. It is background, not the focus. The new Fort Wayne work above comes first.

Fort Wayne Photos is the new chapter: one city, shot well, set by set. This site is display only for now. It shows the work. Nothing is for sale here yet, and no bookings are taken through it yet.
