Stir Trek Conference

📍 Columbus, Ohio

Need brand coverage that goes beyond posed photos? Let’s chat.

Stir Trek is a one-day conference for developers held at AMC Easton in Columbus, Ohio. It’s part tech talks, part movie premiere, and the mix gives it a vibe that’s different from most industry events.


I was there to document the day from start to finish — everything from sponsor booths and hallway convos to speaker sessions and the packed theater at the end.


The goal was to capture the energy without staging any of it. What we ended up with was a set of images that feel like you were actually there. Fast-moving. Community-focused. A little chaotic in the best way.

Rows of popcorn containers at a concession stand inside a busy indoor entertainment complex, with people and screens visible in the background.
A woman checking in at a guest services desk staffed by three men in red and gray shirts with yellow lanyards, in a conference or convention center. Signs indicate 'Beverages' and 'Speaker Check-in'.
A person on stage giving a presentation in a large auditorium with a big screen behind them displaying code snippets and session details. Audience members are seated facing the stage.
Stacked boxes of 'Star Trek' merchandise with artwork of a spaceship and a red limousine.
An overhead view of a convention booth with a pink tablecloth, decorated with cupcakes, brochures, and promotional items, and three men engaged in conversation nearby, in a hotel or conference center.
Man in a gray blazer speaking on stage with a large screen behind him displaying text that reads "JEFF MCWANTER."
Crowd of people walking and standing in a large lobby or event hall, with some looking at their phones and wearing conference badges, under a ceiling with hanging lights.
Audience seated in a theater listening to a presenter on stage, with rows of red seats and a large screen on the left.
Audience members attentively listening during a conference or seminar in a theater with red seats.

People walking and socializing in a convention center lobby, with a concession stand and ATM machines in the background.
Audience members seated in a darkened theater, watching an event on stage, with some wearing lanyards and using tablets or phones.

If it matters to you, it’s worth capturing.

Let’s talk about what you’re planning. Whether you have a date set or just an idea, I’d love to hear it.
