"Garrett Bridwell | Crafted Pour"

"Im a small town texas boy, who moved to Las Vegas NV when I turned 21 and got a crash corse in major legues of hospitality. Im a nightlife photographer by origional standards but very early on I realized that the bar was just as much my happy place as being behind my camera. I spent the next 7 years teaching myself everything from speed, to flairing, to the technical mixology; all while still taking 30 minute brakes to go make passes through the club to get their social media shots for the night. Once I started studying the mixology side, I realize that the ADHD part of my brain could just piece a cocktail together in thin air in front of me, (I promise I'm not completly insaine) and from that point on the "surprise me" cocktails became a staple when at the bar with me. After 7 years I left the desert and moved to Artict tundra that is Chicago. And from that point I was able to take all the different tools and skills I had learned in Vegas and apply them in Chicago.
