Galloways Cocktail Bar located in Fairhaven, WA is a long time client as well as a personal favorite spot in town for happy hour or date night. This sweet little place is known for their specialty cocktails, small plates and Deco Era vibes. You can see some of our older work together on the blog here!
The Challenge
Funny enough, these photos were taken last January! In a smart move by the marketing team, they booked a holiday session for 2023 marketing way back in 2022. Knowing they wanted to take advantage of the holiday decor setup despite not being able to use the photos right away, we planned a little holiday session in early January 2023. We showcased the decor, their holiday signature cocktails and people enjoying a magical, holiday inspired time!
The Project
This restaurant session was organized in a way that allowed us to get the most longevity as possible out of the images. We started indoors with the holiday decor, then moved to the outdoor patio for chilly winter shots with the heaters and then moved back inside to a space that had been cleared of holiday decor. This gave the client images to use this holiday season AND images they could use right away in the winter months of 2023.
The Takeaway
As a restaurant your food, drinks and atmosphere are constantly changing- it is absolutely essential to get photos taken on a regular basis. This allows you to share your current offerings with your customers! This client wound up with 186 images they could use throughout the year and knew they already had fabulous imagery for the following holiday season!
