Montreal Wedding Photography

by Phototerra Studio

Running an airline is a normal job, flying an airplane much harder, using the airplane for a wedding photoshoot…..priceless!
This wedding took place in Montreal at the end of March, when nothing was in bloom and the streets were smudged with some leftover snow.

The hangar and its flying object at first scary and unfamiliar, became an instant inspiration when the newlyweds Naomi and Andrew showed up…I must say, it is very rewarding to be working with couples that trust your guidance…and own a plane…. (and as Tally, our studio manager, added have a stunning wedding dress) I regret not spending the entire day at the hangar…but it was VERY cold and Naomi and Andrew had to get married at some point and so we managed to capture this!!!

The ceremony and reception took place at my favorite synagogue in Montreal the Shaar ha Shamaim. Over the years, I’ve seen the Shaar transform with every wedding and this wedding was not an exception. I think the list of vendors that Naomi provided me with is self explanatory….some great people on that list deserve a credit for this event.

Mazal Tov to Naomi and Andrew!!!

Goodbye winter and hello wedding season. Some fun with 3D

Tuesday, March 22, 2011 Posted in 3d photography, Casual

Winter season in Canada is very long and I would say endless, however it is still with sadness I look at the last helpless attempt to cover everything with ice and submerge the entire city into chaos. The white monster doesn’t have all that power as it used to have just 3-4 weeks ago. So I decided to go for a walk and take some meaningless photos

Use your anaglyph glasses to see the 3D effect. This was shot with Panasonic GH2 3D camera.

My award winning wedding images from WPPI 2011.

Sunday, February 27, 2011 Posted in 3d cinema, 3d photography, photography education, Weddings

Here is the set of images that I sent to WPPI this year. 12-13 of them hang on the display, 3-4 were over 85, and one was 1st place in Photojournalism. I don’t know the exact scores since I was shooting non-stop during the entire week. I shot for WPPI, for GRAPHI, spoke at Panasonic, and Graphi, had a platform class and on top of that got a Las-Vegas flu with moderated fever and runny nose. Why is it that everything good comes with a little bit of bad)

My 3D platform class wasn’t very busy. We were slightly above one hundred people. For the comparison, a class in the next room was over 500 people. There was lots of laughter going on the other side of the wall :) However, my class was the best! We were nerds that looked at the diagrams, talked strange vocabulary and dissected the trends of the industry. Whoever didn’t come missed a lot!This is what one of the students wrote to me 2 days after my presentation. ” ……You gave us an amazing amount of valuable information and did a stellar job of compacting it down into 2 hours……..” “…Rather than giving us a couple of quick fixes and tools, you gave us an intuitive education on the workings of 3D…” “… I got home and told my wife I felt like I just got my doctorate in optometry. …”

I must say he wasn’t along who wrote to me.

Panasonic USA brought a huge plasma 3DTV where I demonstrated images I recently took in 3D. In fact Panasonic liked the presentation so much that they want to continie the relationship futher and we already brainstorming ideas for the future projects.

So here are the images.

Enjoy!
