Forward feature Joe Schmelzer from FOOD & DRINK PHOTOGRAPHY & MOTION

“It goes without saying — Production Paradise is an amazing global network of the industry’s best. As an Art Director I am constantly searching for new work and the artists behind it, so Production Paradise is an incredibly important platform to help both the photographers and the rest of the industry at large.”

Alayna Kunitake, Ogilvy, Melbourne

“Production Paradise broadens my reach to European clients and inspires me come up with a fresh body of work every couple of months. It makes me look back to the work very frequently, pull together a new look and say ''what can I show now?'' One of the clients that I recently found through Production Paradise was Volvo Construction Equipment Spirit and I have done a couple of shoots for them in Brooklyn and Panama. It was a huge project and a great client to work with.”

Dan Bigelow, Photographer, New York

“I'm always happy to receive a new edition of Spotlight from Production Paradise as it's extremely helpful as an overview of the current photographic scene. I've also made contacts that have led to very successful collaborations. I recommended to a photographer that he should show his work in Spotlight, and he received enquiries amazingly fast. I look forward to the next issue! ”
