Vintage finds. Creative minds. One shared studio.

This August, we’re celebrating photography, creativity, and community with a one-of-a-kind studio event: Shoot X Shop.


Happening Saturday, August 23rd from 1–4PM at SWISH Studios (290 McDermot Ave, 3rd Floor), the event brings together photographers, content creators, and vintage lovers for a styled, collaborative experience unlike anything else in the city.


What is Shoot X Shop?

At its core, this is an afternoon where fashion and photography meet. Models styled by local vintage shops will take part in two guided shoot sessions—open to attendees who want to shoot, collaborate, or just observe. Alongside the shoots, a curated selection of vintage vendors will pop up throughout the space, offering one-of-a-kind pieces, accessories, and more.


Event Highlights:

📸 Two one-hour studio portrait sessions featuring styled professional models (1:30 & 2:45PM)

🧵 Shop from:   Retrofete Vintage,  Clothing Bakery,  Rewind Vintage &  Lasso Vintage

🎶 DJ King JB spinning all day

☕️ Coffee & bakery treats available for purchase from Chico
