brewery art walk

This weekend I had the opportunity to display and sell some of my personal photography (see my vintage art photography post).  For those of you who came out to visit, thank you, thank you!  I really loved seeing all the familiar faces and really appreciate all your support!.  As many people expressed interest in attending but couldn’t here’s how it went.

My set up:

The boy and I decided to go check out some art before everything got started.  I, of course, brought the camera.

A little sangria for the walk. Yum :)

Of the few galleries I actually got to see… this was by far my favorite.  Besides being a fan of dragons, this was absolutely amazing!  But even if one isn’t, you can’t help but appreciate the amount of time and intricate details that went into these sculptures.  The light, the fabric, wire, bits of flair, it was so well thought out and executed.  The artist said it was a 5 month process working 80 hours a week and help with sewing the fabrics. I think the results paid off.

I made the boy pose for a few shots.. come on… I’m a photographer. I think it’s required.

The think tank.  The loft my friend so graciously let me show my work in.  Complete with retro beer vending machine, retro robot, and his rockin urban art set up.

My good photographer friend, Holly Steen of Cakes and Kisses Wedding Photography showed up to support me too!  Heart her.  Thanks Jeff for the great photo!

Holly was sweet enough to take some photos of me and my photography too.  Thanks for the photos Holly!

I wound up doing fairly well for this being one of my first art/photography showings.  I was actually most pleased with the response from my work.  Everyone seemed to genuinely like my photography and the style in which I presented it. I got lots of questions about my process and met some really great art fans!  Thanks to all who signed up for my mailing list too!

I still have some prints left over (and buttons too), so if you’re interested in purchasing any, I will be getting a store up on my site eventually, but for now just email me at shannon@shannonleeimages.com and I’ll hook ya up.

And what better way to end the day than with a beautiful sunset!  What a view.
