Reflective puddles on a concrete floor, colorful graffiti art, detritus from the 20th century, and worn brick walls of 150-year-old beer vaults were all subjects in the eerily stunning photos taken by participants on Untapped New York’s photo tour of the William Ulmer brewery with professional photographer Andra Phox. Guests ventured throughout the building, from the rooftop to the basement, searching for the perfect shot. Take a look at what they captured below and learn how you can join us on our next photo tour!

Each guest took a different approach to shooting the location on the other side of their lens. Employing a variety of techniques, which Andrea was on hand to demonstrate, they captured long-exposure images, panoramas, macro-photography images, and more. Experimenting with these various techniques, everyone accomplished shots that were truly unique.
