Google Photography Takes You Inside Chima Steakhouse

Google Trusted Photographer CertificationFor a long time I’d heard a lot of people refer to Chima Steakhouse as their favorite restaurant. I went there for the first time last week, and now that I’ve eaten there, I understand why people like it so much. I ordered the standard Rodizio entree, which means that they serve you 16 different types of meat (steak, chicken, salmon, sausage, etc.), as well as outstanding salads. I’m going there again tomorrow, and I would highly recommend it.

It is also, as of now, my largest virtual photography client. At 8,000 square feet, it may hold this record for a long time. I created the virtual photography tour below out of 336 high resolution photographs, covering the lobby, bar, main dining room, and the two additional semi-private dining rooms. They also have a phenomenal outdoor patio that you can see from the bar.

I hope you enjoy navigating the virtual tour of Chima below.

Panoramic Photography Tour: Look inside Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do in Falls Church, Virginia

Google Trusted Photographer CertificationUntil high school, I was a serious student of martial arts. I practiced for almost six years, and was a first degree black belt in traditional Shotokan Karate. Which is one reason I enjoyed creating this virtual tour out of 204 photographs of the Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do school in Falls Church. This is (so far) the largest virtual tour I have created, in terms of square footage (5,000 square feet), and I think the results look great.

Fun fact: the founder of the school, who lives in Northern Virginia, is considered to be the “Father of American Tae Kwon Do.” Inside the school, you may notice an old black and white picture on the wall of him sparring with his friend Bruce Lee.

I hope you enjoy looking at the tour!

Don’t forget to use your mouse or trackpad to navigate the tour.

Google Business Photos: Look Inside Red, White & Bleu with a Virtual Tour

Google Trusted Photographer CertificationThis virtual tour was actually the first one I ever created. The business is called Red, White & Bleu, and if you’ve never been there, you should definitely check them out. It’s a locally owned wine and cheese shop, as well as an excellent charcuterie. I created this virtual tour out of 156 photographs, and I hope you enjoy using your mouse or trackpad to explore the restaurant below.

The CEO of Red, White & Bleu was nice enough to offer a testimonial in which he said some very nice things about working with the Circle View team, which you can read on our testimonials page here.

Google 360 Photography — Take a Virtual Tour of the Italian Store in Arlington

Google Trusted Photographer CertificationI really enjoyed creating this virtual tour of the Italian Store, which I published to Google Maps today. To make the 360-degree panoramas, I took 180 high res photographs. My first after school job was working at the Italian Store in Arlington. I probably made over a thousand of Milano sandwiches during that time, and this photo shoot brought back a lot of good memories.

I hope you enjoy the virtual tour!
