Maybe it's a meet cute or maybe it's an opportunity to update your dating profile photos! Or...both? Join us for our first SHOOT YOUR SHOT.
About this Event

Shoot Your Shot at Fathom is part social event, part portrait session, and part excuse to actually meet new people outside of your phone. Through guided prompts, drinks, darts, conversation, and optional portraits throughout the night, the event is designed to make connection feel a little easier and a lot less awkward.

Hosted by Rogers Park Headshots, guests leave with a professional portrait perfect for dating profiles, social media, or just finally having a photo of yourself you actually like. Come solo, bring a friend, flirt a little, make a new connection, or just hang out for the night in a space that actually feels welcoming.

Tickets are $35 in advance and include the professional portrait, a welcome beverage (spirit and spirit free options available) and guided networking. This event is limited to 36 participants to keep an intimate experience! Any remaining tickets will be sold for $40 at the door.

Doors at 5pm and our event kicks off at 6pm. Guests should arrive between 6-6:30pm when our group connection opportunities begin. Fathom remains open after the event until Midnight.

Fathom is 21+ and requires physical or mobile ID for all to enter. Fathom is ADA accessible with easy access through our front door and garage.

Please note: refund requests are only available until 24h before the event (6/9, 6pm). No other refund requests will be honored.

ABOUT YOUR HOSTS

Rogers Park Headshots is an at-home photography and video studio in Chicago, owned by married creative duo Drew and Toni Smalls-Verneau. They create visually striking, personalized work tailored to each individual, such as actors, models, corporate clients, or even couples. The studio’s mission is rooted in accessibility, both for themselves and their clients, championing the idea that everyone deserves a shot. Working out of their living room allows them to stay within their financial and neurodivergent capacities while creating something beyond the typical studio experience: a safe space to jam out to your favorite music, have meaningful conversations, play, experiment, and create freely. You can find their work on Instagram at @rogersparkheadshots.
