Choosing the right photographer!
When Choosing The Right Photographer; Insist on Talent First, Technical Know-How Second
Date Released: 07/20/2007
There’s an old adage “You can’t make a silk purse out of a pig’s ear”. Nor can you make a great photo by enhancing a mediocre picture with endless hours of Photoshop. The end result will still be an average photo. Moreover, since Photoshop is now so ubiquitous, anyone with a trained eye will recognize a “cooked in the computer” picture.

Not that Photoshop doesn’t play a role in today’s technology-oriented commercial photography. It certainly does. But, it should be used judiciously and in a manner that adds a touch of “wow” to what is to start with, a well planned and well shot photo.

Don’t be duped by an inexperienced or run-of-the-mill photographer who tries to convince you that getting the results you are looking for is just a matter of a simple, relatively inexpensive photo shoot followed by some technical tweaking. You could be looking at dozens of hours of post production and retouching costs. If, during the initial consultation, you hear the words "We can fix everything in post!" run and don’t look back.

To avoid these pitfalls when looking for the right photographer in Montreal turn to Montreal Photographers Portal http://www.montreal-photographers.com. Offering the services of 12 of Montreal’s most accomplished photographers, this Portal can help you find the right professional for the right job. Individually, each photographer has an impressive portfolio, reflecting the highest level of visual artistry, creativity and technical excellence.

Montreal has it all: ONLY one place for all your photo shoots!

Montreal through camera lenses!
When looking through your camera lenses see; Old Europe at a fraction of the cost; New York, Chicago or any North American Metropolis — only safer and much more affordable; a climate and geography allowing to shoot photos that take place anywhere, in any weather and at any moment in history; a lower cost of living; and a thriving place where the quality of life is unsurpassed, The Province of Quebec and its Metropolis Montreal rank among the most foreign production friendly locations in the world.

Montreal, 400 years of well-preserved history!
What do you get when you combine 400 years of well-preserved history an European cultural and architectural heritage, modern urban cityscapes, quaint rural backdrops, four distinct seasons and a geography of mountains, fields, lakes and a river that gets so wide it can be mistaken for the sea?

In essence, the ideal conditions for outdoor shooting. Photographres, art directors, publishers as well as, filmmakers and producers have often been pleasantly surprised by Montreal Photography Productions’s Location scouts in their ability to come up with credible stand-ins for such hard-to-find locales as a New York winter street at the turn of the century, a 16th-century Paris neighbourhood or a Maine seashore village buried under gold- and red-coloured autumn leaves.A little bit of cosmetics is often all that is required to relocate such faraway places as Shanghai or St.Petersburg.

Dollars and sense!
Not surprisingly, over and above the ideal backdrop, the number one criterion in a decision process when seeking a foreign location is the budget – and, more specifically, how much of it can be saved. Very often, it is those very savings that will determine whether a project gets greenlit or remains shelved. In order to bring your large-scale visions in all their breathtaking details, you need all the financial breaks that can be made available to you, thus, an ever-advantageous Canadian dollar.
