I love it when a plan comes together!  The goal – improve the online personality for a fine local bakery using the Google Trusted Photographer program to create business photos in the Google My Business View program. These 360 degree panorama’s show up in Google Search, Google Map, and Google+ locations (and more).  Now, after the publishing of the business photos, notice the box which shows up to the right of the search results. .Pretty kewl, huh?


Winter Wedding Bridal Session - Bellefonte – PA

Sherry Tallon, CJ Samples, and I braved some very cold weather up a snow and ice covered dirt road for some photos last week. The wind was gusty to perhaps 20 miles per hour, and the temperature was about 38 degrees F. We had to engage (or dis-engage?) the anti-skid function on the trusty Scion XB to make it to the hiking-in point.  We then lugged a wedding dress, tuxedo, camera, tripod, lightstand, flashes, dress shoes and more through the snowy trail. Once on the cliff face area, the rocks were ice covered and provided no level area to stand; this was a good area to slip and break a leg, and not in the theatrical sense!  Sherry posed like a true professional  and was un-complaining despite the bitter wind, slippery rocks and very real danger of hypothermia. CJ was just the same – although he had at least a wool tuxedo jacket to wear, his shoes were quite slippery and the rest of the wear far too thin for the elements. Still - we made it - and we each think the pix came out okay. .What do you think?

Chocolate Lovers Fest - February 6th, 2015

Nancy and I we able to be a part of a fund raiser last night for the Donald Heiter community center, she with her jewelry (see NancysJewelry.net) and I with photography. The Heiter Center helps hundreds of children each year, with only two paid staff. Andrea Tufo is an amazing director, and a great community supporter (she’s also a member of our local Rotary club – Lewisburg Sunset Rotary Club).

The Mayor of Lewisburg, Judith Wagner was in attendance, as was state representative Fred Keller, and numerous civic leaders.
