B.C. Realtor Nearing 44 Million Views From Google Photography Days
His roughly 7,700 images have drawn 43,995,344 views as he photographed B.C. businesses, attractions and resorts for Google Street View.
On Tuesday, Oct. 27, Vernon realtor Sean Phillips neared a significant milestone as his roughly 7,700 photos on Google reached a combined 43,995,344 views.
Phillips spent eight years as a Google trusted photographer, creating Google Street View virtual tours for hundreds of businesses and attractions across the Okanagan.
One photo of Swan Lake Motors in Vernon surpassed 1.4 million views, while a Bradley Jewellers image continues drawing more than 1,000 weekly views.
Phillips stated he never set out to accumulate views but wanted people to see how good these places looked before visiting the Okanagan.
Now applying his programming background, Phillips develops free community tools including virtual tours of Big White Ski Resort and hill-aware e-biking ratings for homes.
