A Spectacular Year at Middle Waves with the Embassy Theatre
Middle Waves has always been one of the most electric weekends in Fort Wayne, and this year’s festival felt like something special. Partnering once again with the Embassy Theatre to capture and recap the event brought me back to a space filled with creativity, music, and community energy. Under the Headwaters Park Pavilion, Phantogram delivered an unforgettable headlining set, supported by incredible performances from Love Seat, Post Sex Nachos, Mannequin Pussy, and Ratboys. The atmosphere was vibrant and alive, the kind of night that reminds you why live music holds such power.
Shooting Middle Waves over the years has become one of those traditions that feels woven into the fabric of my work. These events attract some of the most creative people in the city, which means the festival always feels like home. The connection between the artists, the crowd, and the Fort Wayne creative community brings a sense of belonging that’s hard to replicate anywhere else.
A huge thank you to the Embassy Theatre for bringing me back year after year to help tell the story of this festival. Capturing these moments and celebrating the talent that comes through Middle Waves continues to be a privilege, and this latest installment might just be the best one yet.
