The Pineville Downtown Development District has announced the completion of the first project funded through its new Facade Decorative Lighting Grant Program. Candiloro & Co. Photography, a local studio known for helping businesses strengthen their brands through custom photography, is the first recipient to finish its lighting upgrade.

The new decorative lighting highlights the studio’s creative presence in downtown Pineville and adds to the district’s efforts to enhance the area’s visual appeal. The DDD said the project reflects its goal of supporting businesses while continuing to improve the look and feel of the downtown corridor.

Before-and-after photos shared by the district show the studio’s storefront transformation under the updated lighting.
