Alain Dahan Photography: A “Must-Book” Photographer in Montreal! My husband and I travelled from California and booked a two-hour photo session with Alain in Old Montreal — and we were absolutely blown away! From the moment we met him, Alain’s friendly, easygoing personality made us feel so comfortable. He guided us effortlessly through each pose, helping us relax and have fun — even though we’re not professional models! The photos turned out breathtaking. Every image captures the charm, colour, and romance of Montreal with incredible artistry and attention to detail. The lighting, the composition, the editing — everything looks straight out of a travel magazine. If you’re visiting Montreal from anywhere in the world — whether it’s your first trip or your tenth — don’t miss the chance to capture your memories with Alain. He doesn’t just take pictures; he creates moments you’ll cherish forever. Truly a world-class experience. Highly recommend!

We spent 2 hours in old Montreal taking photos with beautiful backgrounds including the ferris wheel, private alley ways, and cobblestone streets. Alain was very experienced and knowledgeable. He helped to educate us and provided great local color. As an amateur photographer I enjoyed speaking with him about equipment and technique. We had a great afternoon. Thank you.

I had an amazing experience with Alain for my sister's birthday photoshoot! He drove two hours from Montreal and made us feel special from the start. Alain was friendly, attentive to details, and captured our joy perfectly. Highly recommend him for any photoshoot!

I generally travel solo. So that makes taking pictures of myself during the travel difficult. I am glad there is such option that I can get a pro photographer to take my pictures. Mr. Alain is super nice and professional and I would recommend him to anyone who plan on doing this!

Loved this tour! Alain picked us up from our hotel in his sparkling, clean car and took us to an amazing indoor location to shoot our family photos. He has a great eye for backgrounds, color and lighting and he has interesting ideas for scenes and poses. He's flexible, lighthearted and easy to work with. Got our photos back and they are absolutely fantastic. The fare was reasonable, comparable or even less than what I've paid for professional photos on other occasions. Download was super easy, immediate transfer to my computer. If we return to Montreal we'll call him again.
