OUR STORY

2018

Founded in July, Tin Roof Studios is committed to guiding business owners through marketing challenges into sustainable growth. It was Mervin Hostetler’s passion for photography and videography that sparked the business idea, and the early days found him shooting product photography in the living room. He got his first paying job through a Google My Business page and it’s grown from there.

2019

Mervin continued working on projects as there was a demand for them, often fitting them into his evenings and Saturdays

2020

In spring, the Tin Roof Studios website was launched. Because of the higher demand for product photography, a 200+ square foot office trailer was purchased in the fall. This also gave Mervin a dedicated space for his business.

2021

Spring found Mervin going to full time with his photography. He upgraded all the photography gear, and by fall a photo/video editor joined the team.

2022

Tin Roof Studios started offering design services in the spring. The business was moved to a new location in Berlin, with a shared lease for the building. A production van was added in August.

2023

By this time, more space was needed, so Tin Roof Studios took over the lease of the building. New projects kept coming and the Holmes County Business Directory was started. With all the work, a general manager was needed, so Mervin’s brother Delbert joined the team that summer.

2024

The Tin Roof Studios website was refreshed and updated, and the Holmes County Business Directory was officially launched.

We’re excited to see what the next years will bring! Does your brand need a refresh? Do you have questions with your marketing and wish it would be more effective? We are interested in helping you develop a strategic plan that helps you reach the needs and goals for your business. “Don’t Lose Focus!” This quote is our tagline, and it’s our goal for both you and for ourselves. We desire to grow in exemplifying our core values of creativity, communication, wisdom, diligence, and integrity.
