Silver Stream Coffee Roasters: Social Media & Branding Photography

Silver Stream Coffee Roasters: Social Media & Branding Photography

In January of 2023, I began working with SilverStream Coffee Roasters, who at the time, was still named Kairos Coffee Roasters & Tea Co. SilverStream Coffee Roasters is a coffee roaster (located in Butler, PA) who serves their coffee out of a renovated vintage airstream in Cranberry Township, PA, as well as a private location inside Iron Mountain in Boyers, PA.

Though I am a photographer by trade, the main service they hired me for originally was to create content for their Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as manage their social media pages. But in order to create content, one needs photos and videos, so naturally, my photography experience was (and is!) helpful for content creation purposes!

In the sample of photos below, you’ll see some of the prior branding (Kairos) and the newer branding (SilverStream). The first few photos were taken inside the roastery, and the rest were taken at their airstream in Cranberry Township.

We have worked collaboratively to stage backgrounds with props that reflect seasonal menus, as well as staple items on their menu, and products they hoped to promote.

Though I am primarily a portrait photographer, I have so loved the creative challenge of bringing a brand to life through photos! I never imagined that it could be such a fulfilling outlet creatively, as someone who has primarily photographed people for the last decade. But working with a great brand and great people makes it so rewarding… and so fun!

If you’re a small business looking to collaborate on social media and/or branding images, I’d love to see if I could be the right fit for you! I also offer social media content creation on a case-by-case basis - you are welcome to provide your own photos/videos for me to work with, or I would be glad to take my own as a part of the content creation process.

Please reach out to me directly at jhidingerphotography@gmail.com if you would be interested in collaborating!

Portraits for The Perfect Piece in Zelienople, PA

The Perfect Piece is a used furniture store located in Zelienople, PA. Ownership for the store recently changed hands, and the new owners (Robin & Melinda) invited me to come and take a few portraits of them in their space (along with a few photos of them with the previous owners!).

This was such a sweet time! Robin is a long time friend of mine (who actually has assisted me with quite a few sessions in the past - so you might recognize her if you’ve had a senior session with me!), and it was such a joy to see this new venture come to fruition for her.

The store has lots of beautiful furniture, so we had a lot to work with in terms of portrait spots! As someone who usually photographs seniors, weddings, and families, this was a fun change of pace.

And a someone who lives in Zelienople, it was so much fun to get to work with a local business in this way.

Congratulations on your new venture, Robin & Melinda! And congratulations to the previous owners (Nancy & Kelly) on their successful hand off!

In Home Lifestyle Blog Photos

I cannot believe that I have never shared these images here on my blog! They are truly some of my favorites I’ve had the privilege to create in the last couple of years.

A few summers ago, I received a message through my website for a mom-blogger looking for someone to take some lifestyle, in-home photos for brand, Cake for Breakfast. Intrigued by the name (cake lover here! 👋) and in alignment with her vision style and content-wise, I gratefully accepted the opportunity to take photos of Christi Lukasiak’s family and happenings in her home!

I knew after our first shoot when she sent me home with a full, floral-covered cake (with the good buttercream icing, might I add!) that we would be just fine working together 😉 I had the privilege of hanging out with this family on a few different occasions , and they truly are a blast to work with! I thought it might be fun to share some of my favorite photos from our time together, AND to possibly give some inspiration into what an in home “lifestyle” family session could look like.
