Photo Montage

[Jourabchi]

Fellas,
Im looking for some reccomendations on photo montage creation i have some wedding pics i need to create a montage for, and just curious to see what others are doing, i dont want it to be just cuts and fades,

Thinking of making 1 large photoshop image with the images spaced out evenly and using afx and just pan and zoom the camera camer a round,

any one know of any good plug ins or even programs that do a decent job and may make it a little less time consuming?
Thanks

i've done my share of these for friends and family (and always swear never to do another :) ).

My approach is to animate each photo in the timeline, rather than mess with zooming the camera around. I just pan and zoom on each shot for a few seconds and do crossfades between them...

well, ive used moving picture befor and its a decent plug for afx, its nice because u can open all images in photoshop and create a hi-res contact sheet under automation, and then it will automatically scale and resize if needed each image and put them into one file, then u can use moving picture and pan and zoom the camera on, it also adds a motion blur,

My buddy uses proshow gold, ima gonna demo it and see if i like it..its made by photdex or somthing rather.....

im still open for suggestions though
