How To Sell Celebrity Photos Online

For celebrities, it’s a deliberate splash. Like Sundance or Cannes they come here to be photographed and of course their very presence adds to the excitement of the spectacle.

September is also when the Toronto International Film Festival dominates the city. Known originally as "The Festival of Festivals", it was founded in 1976 at the Windsor Arms Hotel. TIFF has grown since, but is still centered in Yorkville, an upscale neighborhood with luxury hotels and movie theaters, cafes and shops.

The first two weeks in September are a magical time in Toronto. Everything is still warm, green and alive, and there’s an excitement in the air. The University of Toronto starts its fall semester in September, and thousands of students settle into new apartments and explore the city, some for the first time. The evenings are cool and alive with music.

For celebrities, it’s a deliberate splash. Like Sundance or Cannes they come here to be photographed and of course their very presence adds to the excitement of the spectacle. With even the most basic photography equipment, anyone can lens a ‘moment of their time’ and depending on the circumstances, that photo could be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Being an amateur shutter bug is not against the law, nor is it immoral, as celebrities at TIFF are actually ‘on tour’. Their press agents would probably encourage you to snap away.

To get some perspective on the Film Festival, use Poynt on Microsoft® Windows Live™ Messenger and do a comprehensive local search of the Yorkville area. Set your location the Hotel Continental, or the Four Seasons Hotel on Cumberland and find the night clubs, coffee shops, book stores, and upscale clothing stores that attract A-list celebrities.
