Dallas Retail Photography: Inside the East Dallas Wine and Spirit Shop Bar & Garden

Long before I launched a career in Interior Design & Commercial Photography, I spent my days circling North Texas selling boutique French and Italian wines to restaurants and shops. After college and culinary school, I spent 11 years working just about every position in the hospitality industry. From line cook to certified sommelier, my love of learning kept me engaged and I really loved how active the job was. Sitting behind a desk day in and day out is not the life for me.

One of my favorite accounts I served also happens to be my favorite wine and spirit shop in Dallas. Bar & Garden, located on the corner of Ross and Hall in East Dallas, is a colorful and fun wine and spirit shop specializing in organic wines, small batch spirits, more hanging plants than I can count, and the cutest selection of vintage glassware and hostess gifts.

Bar & Garden only carries wine, spirits, and cocktail mixers that are free of artificial colors and flavors. All of their wines, at a minimum, are practicing organic, and many of their labels are biodynamic. They lead the way in the Texas natural wine movement, and carry some of the most popular labels of natural wines sweeping the nation in popularity today.

It’s the first place I venture out to when I want to try something new, if you ever find yourself in the area, I highly recommend checking it out.

The modern industrial space with its colorful, botanical wallpaper and assortment of plants is a lovely space to be in. Here are a few of my favorite photos taken from that session.
