I'd like to take a moment here to acknowledge some AMAZING local businesses that have helped out with the Little Miss Harrisburg pageant portraits last week.

Empire Cards was so generous in allowing me to set up in their brand new space this year! I hope that everyone takes the time to stop in and check out all their inventory and their business that has truly been a blessing for the community. Who knows, you might find yourself a new love for card trading! 😎🃏🎴

Another big thank you to Lava's Coffee for creating some "pageant inspired" drinks for the pageant portrait day and having some fun treats to go along! Stay tuned as those drinks might just return again soon...

I know many of you may have been in-between activities with kids and might not have had a chance to really check out the businesses, but with Harrisburg Days around the corner I hope that you can find some pockets of time to do so!

In the meantime, be sure to show them some love on socials! Go give them a LIKE👍🏻 and FOLLOW👍🏻 as that really helps get their businesses seen more. 💙

Because life gets busy and I packed WAY TOO MUCH into my week, I won't be posting this week's Featured business until I get a chance to later.

In the meantime though, in honor of the PULSE Dance Studio recital tomorrow I'll re-share the reels I created! 💙🤍

🍔🔥 From burgers and wings to BBQ meat trio, salads, comfort food favorites, and everything in between… there’s a reason Big J's Roadhouse Harrisburg SD has become a local favorite for so many people in the community. 🙌

Back in 2021, I had the opportunity to capture the variety on their menu — and let me tell you… editing these images while hungry was not easy! 😂

Go support local and show Big J’s some love! Follow their page, order food to-go, delivery, or dine-in at their Harrisburg location. J's Roadhouse Harrisburg SD

Because great food deserves visuals that are just as inviting as the experience itself. 👏

Want drool worthy images for your food focused business, let's chat! 📷

Current Monday night plans:
🍔 Burger
🍟 Fries
📍 Supporting local
🍽 Not cooking dinner

Great food, supporting local, and an excuse not to cook? Sounds like a solid way to start the week! 😂💛

One thing I love about working with local businesses is helping them not only through photography, but also by creating eye-catching graphics and promotional content that helps their specials stand out online.

After all… there’s a reason my business is called Kruse PhotoGraphics. 😉📸✨

From branding imagery to social media graphics, I love helping local businesses create content that connects with their community and gets people through the doors.

So go show Big J's Roadhouse Harrisburg SD some love tonight and support local! 👏
