They trust us
A 360 photo is the whole room in one image.
A 360 camera captures the scene in every direction, in several merged exposures (HDR) so that windows stay readable and interiors stay bright. The panorama is viewed by turning the view, on a screen or a phone. Linked by arrows, several panoramas become a Google virtual tour; placed on your website or your social media, a single panorama is enough to show a place.
01
Be seen on Google Maps
A 360 panorama published on your Google Business Profile appears in Search and on Google Maps, where customers look before they go.
02
An image that gets shared
Facebook displays 360 photos with their rotation controls; on your website, a lightweight 360 player is all it takes. A panorama can also be linked from a newsletter.
03
HDR quality
Several exposures merged for each panorama, then retouched: natural colours, readable windows, no dark corners.
04
Compatible with the 3D tour
A 360 panorama can be placed in a tag of your Matterport tour or in the branded menu, to show a view the scan does not cover.
What is a 360 photo for?
Shops and restaurants
The dining room, the counter, the terrace: one panorama on the Google listing and another on Facebook show the atmosphere before the first visit.
Event venues and hotels
A hall set up for a banquet, a room, a lobby: the panorama answers the question “what does it look like?” as soon as the booking request comes in.
Outdoors and tourism
Ski hill, marina, park, lookout: an outdoor panorama places the location and makes people want to go.
Car dealerships and showrooms
The showroom and the service bay in 360 on the Google listing, with the full Google virtual tour as an option.
Daycares, clinics and offices
Reassure before the visit: the reception, the waiting room or the playroom in a single panorama.
Real estate and developers
A panorama of the living room, the terrace or the view, to publish with the HDR photos and the real estate video.

Good to know: a 360 photo does not measure and does not produce a floor plan
A panorama shows a place from one point; it produces neither a 3D model, nor a floor plan, nor measurements. To document a building, let visitors move around freely or produce floor plans, you need the Matterport 3D virtual tour. Aerial views by drone have their own page.
360 photo in Montreal: for Google Maps, your website and your social media
Our 360 photo service in Montreal and the surrounding area captures your places as high-resolution HDR panoramas, at eye level, indoors and outdoors. A single panorama shows a room, a terrace or a lookout; several panoramas linked by arrows become a Google virtual tour published on your Business Profile. These panoramas can also be built into a branded Matterport 3D virtual tour, to give your customers a complete immersive experience.
Three ways to use a panorama
- On Google Maps: published on your Business Profile, the panorama appears in Google Search and on Google Maps. Linked to the other panoramas, it forms a Google virtual tour, hosted by Google with no annual fee. As Google Street View publishing and Google Maps content experts, we have published over 1,000 tours since 2015.
- On your website: a lightweight 360 player displays the panorama in your page, with an embed code we give you. See our page on web integration and sharing.
- On social media: Facebook displays 360 photos with their rotation controls. We deliver the file with its 360 metadata, ready to publish.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our answers.
Another question? Write to marc@panosphere360.com or call 514 262-9248.
What is a 360 photo?
It is an image that covers every direction around the camera. On screen, you turn the view with the mouse or a finger; on a phone, by moving the device. We capture it in HDR, that is, in several merged exposures, for natural colours and readable windows.
How much does a 360 photo cost in Montreal?
Panoramas on their own, for your website or your social media, are quoted according to the number of views and the locations. A Google virtual tour, that is, linked panoramas published on Google Maps, follows the Matterport price list by area, plus $100, so from $495. Prices in Canadian dollars, taxes extra.
Can a 360 photo be published on Google Maps?
Yes, for shops, institutions and other non-residential places. The panoramas are published on your Google Business Profile and linked by navigation arrows: that is the Google virtual tour. Google hosts them with no annual fee.
How do I publish a 360 photo on Facebook or on my website?
Facebook recognizes the 360 metadata of the file we deliver and displays the panorama with its rotation controls. For your website, we provide an embed code with a lightweight 360 player, or we place the panorama in your 3D tour.
What is the difference between a 360 photo and a 3D virtual tour?
A 360 photo shows a place from one point; a Matterport 3D virtual tour lets the visitor move from one point to the next, see the dollhouse view, the floor plan and measure. The two combine: a panorama can be built into the 3D tour, and the 3D tour can be published on Google Maps.
Do you also take 360 photos by drone?
Yes, with a certified drone pilot: 360 aerial views of the site and the building, from $450 to $495, are built into the virtual tour. They have their own page, “360° aerial views by drone”.
How long does it take to receive the panoramas?
24 to 48 hours after capture in most cases, by download link or directly on Google Maps. A large number of places or a branded tour may take a few more days.
Do you travel outside Montreal?
Yes. We are based in Boucherville, on the South Shore, and photograph in Montreal, Laval and across Quebec. Beyond about 100 km from Montreal, a travel fee of $0.73/km applies.
