Biographical History
Benedicte Wrensted (b. Feb. 10, 1859, Hjørring, Denmark) grew up and went to school in Frederikshavn. She learned photography from her aunt, Charlotte Borgen, in the 1880s. Benedicte was a professional photographer in Horsens, Denmark, and had a studio there for about four years. Emigrating to the United States with her mother Johanne in July of 1894, she first went to Philadelphia to visit a cousin, then traveled to Pocatello, Idaho, where her brother Peter lived. A great deal of her professional photography career was dedicated to photographing Native Americans.
