Capturing the Vibrant Transformation of Westfax Brewing Company

We had the pleasure of working with WESTFAX Brewing to capture their newly renovated exterior and expanded patio space, located at the historic Casita Bonita on Colfax. This update comes just in time for the summer, providing the perfect spot for patrons to enjoy their favorite brews outdoors.


We headed to the Denver location for a dynamic photo and video shoot, creating a quick 30-second Instagram/TikTok video for their marketing campaign. The updated exterior images of their patio and storefront turned out fantastic, highlighting the vibrant atmosphere of the brewery.


The shoot was extra special as it featured their loyal patrons who turned up on a lively Saturday night, excited to be part of the marketing campaign. Their genuine enjoyment and energy were captured beautifully, adding authenticity to the photos. We also had the opportunity to photograph the dedicated staff in action, brewing a new batch of beer.

Behind the Scenes with the Brewmaste



We also had the opportunity to photograph the dedicated staff in action, including an exclusive image set of their brewmaster. Positioned in the back of the store, the brewmaster meticulously smelled the beer in the fermentation tanks, ensuring that everything was perfect and ready to go before bottling. These shots provide a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the care and expertise that goes into every batch, highlighting the meticulous process that guarantees the high quality of Westfax’s brews.

A Blend of Passions

This project was particularly exciting for me because it blended the two worlds I love most about photography. I got to photograph the exterior of the building, indulging my passion for architectural photography, while also diving into product and Instagram marketing photography. Being behind the scenes, photographing kegs and their inner workings, was a fascinating way to tie these different aspects of my expertise into one functional shoot for Westfax Brewing Company.

Conclusion

Westfax Brewing has seen a surge in new customers since Casa Bonita opened, bringing fresh life to the area. These photos aim to emulate the bright and inviting vibes of their surroundings. We’re thrilled to have been part of this project and look forward to working with them again at their new Colorado Springs location.

Capturing the Essence of Susan Hable’s Handmade Jewelry Collection

By Wyatt Smith • July 9, 2024
A Journey Through Light and Craftsmanship Recently, I had the incredible opportunity to photograph Susan Hable’s latest jewelry collection, a stunning array of hand-carved emeralds, lapis, 24-karat gold, and coral pieces, all meticulously crafted in India. Susan, renowned for her design prowess, personally sourced and organized these materials, working closely with skilled craftsmen to bring this collection to life. The Photoshoot Experience The shoot took place in a beautifully lit living room, where we utilized natural light bouncing through a glass panel door to create a radiant glow around the model. The setting was perfect for highlighting the delicate details and luxurious feel of the jewelry. However, not having my full lighting kit posed a challenge. The shifting sunlight made it difficult to maintain a consistent feel across all images. Thankfully, we discovered another door that provided a similar lighting effect, allowing us to achieve the desired look throughout the shoot.
