German Village Winter Wonderland
Meet Phillip Mealer, a photographer and videographer with a passion for German Village. Follow him on Instagram and see the neighborhood illuminated through his imaging.
From Phillip:
German Village is like a short trip to Europe.
I look at the homes, the brick streets and feel the past.
A neighborhood built for people, horses and carriages, not cars and trucks.
Walking, no rush, great visual moments.
Historic coupled with restoration, renovation and beautification, incredible.

In 2022, I branched out into short videos highlighting German Village. I feel the films vs. still images make the structures even more engaging and alive.
I shoot almost entirely iPhone. Being a photographer to me is synonymous with being a storyteller.
I was born and raised in Columbus Ohio and have lived in in the downtown area for 20 years.
My photography passion for the area, I feel, came from working on restoring older homes in my teens and twenties. I enjoyed doing it, and German Village, as a whole, spoke to me the most. Every time I walk the neighborhood I feel inspired.
I enjoy doing this both professionally and as a hobby. I am always honored to be hired or commissioned to highlight a home or a city for travel. I also just enjoy taking photos on my walks. It’s a great way to decompress.
