Capture and Chill: Celebrating 4 Years at the Studio with Fujifilm and Good Vibes

This past weekend, we celebrated a major milestone—four years at the studio, and we did it in the most chilled way possible. With the amazing support of Fuji, we hosted our very own Capture and Chill event, which brought together an incredible community of photographers, friends, and creative spirits. The vibe was laid-back, relaxed, and full of great conversations about photography, art, and life.

It wasn’t about high-pressure photo shoots; instead, it focused on good company, drinks, and music. We had the talented DJ Petko spinning tunes all day, creating the perfect atmosphere for everyone to unwind and enjoy the event. With drinks flowing and plenty of time to chat, it was an opportunity for photographers and artists to connect on a more personal level, away from the fast pace of daily work.

Here’s what made the day special

 

  • DJ Petko’s Beats: With his smooth sets, DJ Petko set the mood from start to finish, keeping the energy relaxed but engaging. His tunes were the perfect backdrop to the event, making it easy for everyone to kick back and chill. I am going to start having DJ Petko at my future shoots.

  • Fuji’s Presence: While the event was more about socializing, Fuji was on hand with their latest gear, and there was plenty of low-key photography talk. Attendees shared stories, swapped tips, and discussed how new equipment could enhance their craft.

  • Good Drinks and Even Better Conversations: Whether it was a cold drink in hand or deep discussions about creative journeys, the real focus of the event was the connection between everyone who came through. The event had a vibe that blended community spirit with casual learning, allowing for the perfect mix of fun and inspiration.

This celebration marked a moment of reflection for me—four years of building this creative space, hosting talented people, and making memories that last well beyond the photos. Capture and Chill was the ideal way to unite everyone and celebrate that journey.

A big thank you to everyone who came out to share in the celebration, and to Fuji for partnering with us on this unforgettable event. We look forward to many more years of creativity, laughter, and community. Stay tuned for what’s next! Big thanks also to my intern Rodrigo Eloi for the great BTS pics of the event.
