Shaping a Brand Story with Photography: Boedecker Cellars

Athena Pappas and Stewart Boedecker are a winemaking team with differing ideas on Pinot Noir. Stewart likes his Pinot Noir delicate, Athena prefers a more powerful style. And therein lies one aspect of their unique brand story. In preparation for updating their website, Stewart and Athena collaborated with us on a set of photos intended to tell that story with subtlety and nuance. Additionally, Boedecker Cellars had expanding their tasting hours and wanted to showcase their added offerings to the public and wine club members. Here are a few of our favorites from the shoot. Both John and I are delighted with the photos of Athena and Stewart making tasting notes on their current wines–we think it’s the perfect expression of their partnership.
