Crafting Great Experiences


We aim to create an excellent experience for each customer and we believe you deserve our best. While each item we serve has been prepared with care and patience, the ingredients play a major role in the final product.

We source our ingredients from local businesses providing high quality coffee, tea, and milk.

Skip Class & Shoot Fast

I've never taken a class in photography, but I fall into a category that all students do. I look up YouTube tutorials. I love talking with other shooters about recent projects, weird hurdles encountered, and fixing wack exposures. And every time, it relates to a self-taught lesson. Some of my lessons I learned awhile ago, some more recent. But the point I want to make to you, is that you don't need anyone to tell you how to do any of this right. Get out there and keep trying. But always be honest with yourself about how it's going. Keep asking yourself how your work could be better. Dissect photography that moves you, figure out how and why it does. In no time, you'll find yourself progressing towards whatever the purest form of what your style is. you don't have to, but I encourage that you go around the room clockwise starting from the door.
