Mallory made the team feel at ease, and was able to capture some absolutely incredible shots of the team and their work. We had provided a bit of direction about the vibe we wanted to portray and she ran with that - exceeding all expectations. Mallory delivered a set of absolutely stunning photos that we can use for a variety of purposes - and will absolutely make us shine in the latest issue of New Brewer Magazine! We HIGHLY recommend using 40 Watt for any professional photography needs you have!
-Loy Maierhauser, "Administrator of Many Things", MAP Brewing Company
Fun fact - I bartended at MAP starting on opening night and stayed until 40 Watt became my full time job in 2019! They were incredibly supportive when I decided to leave and have stayed friends since - my office is now right around the corner, so I see them often. I was thrilled when they asked me to come photograph their wholesale team in action for a piece in a magazine. They handle all of their distribution in-house and the team is organized, efficient, resourceful, and scrappy as hell. I respect the hustle deeply and I'm so glad to see them doing well. This was so fun and my favorite way to photograph teams in action. If I can be a fly on the wall for their normal work day, the process of being photographed is less awkward and the results are much more natural.
"We brought 40 Watt in to MAP Brewing to shoot some photographs for our website, promotional materials, and for a feature in a nation-wide publication - all at one time. We even asked her to come in at 7am!"
"Planning the shoot was so easy - I felt like she knew what I was looking for before I knew what I was looking for. I knew the vibe I wanted to convey in the pictures, and after chatting with her, I felt so confident leaving it in her hands to capture the images we were looking for."
"I got to MAP after Mal had already been there for about a half hour - and the team that was previously pretty hesitant to be photographed while doing their job - was laughing it up with her. She made them feel important, and made everyone feel at ease even though they had a camera following them around for the work they do early in the morning! By the end of the shoot, they had built such a good relationship with Mallory that they asked her if she could take some posed team pictures of them in front of their delivery vans! Mallory brings the energy your shoot needs - she's a master at reading the room. She can put anyone at ease and will deliver a stunning photo because of it. Vibes are always high when Mal's in the room. "
