Local Business Photography | North East and Erie PA Commercial Photographer
June 24, 2009 by Heather · 2 Comments
Last week I was asked to photograph a couple of local business owners and a local businessman. I love working with other professionals in the area!
First up — the girls at Mary’s Select Foods and Fresh Picked located at 22 South Lake Street [ across the street from me! ]. They were looking for a professional portrait of their staff that they could use for their website and I was told Mary only agreed to do the portrait if I shot it and made them ‘look really good, like { I } always do’
Sweet, that’s a good reputation to have!

Mary’s Select Foods is a great little shop full of all natural foods and organic options. It is also the home of Katie Rowan’s restaurant Fresh Picked, a fantastic and tasty vegetarian option in North East.
Later that afternoon Jon Cullen came into the studio for some head shots for work. Jon is in the technology and education field and works for a company in Erie, PA. Here are a couple of his portraits:


I’ll end this with a little note to other local business owners — if you are in need of any type of photographs for your business give me a call, I can work with people, product or building photography!

Mary stopped down to the studio today for a quick business headshot session. She just happened to be wearing an outfit that looked fantastic in the gallery so we used that for the backdrop! She is just getting her new wedding and event planning business up and running and it sounds like she is doing awesome with it! Simply Unique Weddings & Events is based in Erie but is composing a nationwide team to serve people all across the country or for those wishing to have destination weddings in other parts of the US. Her information will be on the sidebar in the wedding vendors list so you can easily access her site.

So much more coming up on the blog, I promise I’ll catch up soon!

Urban XpERIEnce Magazine Photoshoot | Erie, PA
November 21, 2008 by Heather · Leave a Comment
Well I am snowed in at home and going nowhere today so I thought I’d take a moment to update you about a photo shoot I had on Wednesday. A new magazine about Erie happenings is coming on the market, Urban XpERIEnce will be coming out mid-January. Its going to cover lots of great topics ranging from fine dining to art & culture in the area. Its much more than just a magazine though, there is going to be a fantastic online experience for users as well. I’m really excited about what they have in store for everyone.
Anyway, we decided to shoot the cover shot at Twelve O’ One Restaurant and Wine Bar, it made a great backdrop for the cover idea. Check out the images in the first issue of Urban XpERIEnce. Thanks to JB for letting us photograph there, I can’t wait to go back and have dinner soon!
Up next: a post from last week’s wedding — Chris & Chelsea! Stay tuned

Katie came to me a few weeks ago looking to put a mini portfolio together for her to distribute at an upcoming event and I just wanted to share some of the images with you all. Katie was a trooper and the pictures at the beach turned out great in spite of the freezing temperature.




I can’t wait to see you in magazines! | Heather
