The Community Kitchen at Mrs G Appliances

TELLING HER STORY

Debbie Schaeffer, owner of Mrs G Appliances in Lawrenceville knows how to tell her story. Not just the personal story about this third generation family-owned retail showroom, but also about how it continues to evolve, serve its customers and be an active part of the community.

Every big box hardware store sells appliances but few (if any) offer innovation or a fulfilling customer experience like Mrs G.

Debbie hosts events, offers cooking classes and has business gatherings in addition to selling a wide range of high quality appliances. Debbie is an integral part of the community.

She wanted me to created some images to illustrate her store, so we got together and spent some time taking a few photos to give people insight into some showroom features that Mrs G offers.

My favorite is the Community Kitchen (pictured above) which is fully operational, not just a display. To get some authentic photos, Debbie had her chef cooked up some delicious chilly while I photographed the process. (I wish I could have photographed the aroma, too.)

The staff certainly enjoyed us having done this as can be seen in this panoramic photo grabbing some lunch in the kitchen. This is the view that customers experience upon entering the store.

Photographing live screens can be tricky but I wasn’t there to fake the experience, but instead to illustrate it. I can just imagine someone watching a football game on the hub or getting live cooking tips from a sibling.…
