Another very well organised group shoot in a great location. These events don't happen by themselves so huge gratitude to the Megashoot team for the effort they put in to make it work. |

I forgot to buy batteries for my trigger and low and belold batteries were available. Thanks Martin for saving my blushes! |

| Negative Experience |
As others have already said.... Models cancelling bookings late or pulling out of the entire event without any communication feels very disrespectful. There may be genuine reasons for cancelling but I don't think it is unreasonable to expect a short message or apology. In contrast, a very small number of models who cancelled did contact me and we have already arranged to shoot together soon, but the majority said nothing. |

The website was a little tempermental for me I raise my hands it could in part be me. But I would get notification emails from the system and when I went on the site I couldn't see someones message or the change that the email stated. It also will not allow me to make changes to my profile, when I save it reverts to what it was previously. It is only a small thing because over all the experience was amazing. |

I enjoyed meeting the members of the group , great sense of camaraderie. Nice meeting John and Taz again....The meeting point was well chosen in close proximity to all the significant locations ... well done. |

Well the walk to the pointwith an overloaded trolley,didn't help as I had an injured foot I guess I will need to get fitter for the next one. However it balanced out, uphill on the way up to the meeting point but downhill on the way to the carpark on the way home,,, not to be taken as a really negative point |

Fantastic event with lots of creative minds and individuals. Loved how open models were to ideas. High level of preparedness from photographers.Weather was not on our side, but this is Ireland. |

Very little papparazi mentality. People stuck with their models to create a style, little to no over the shoulder shooting. Fantastic website and functionality |
|
| Negative Experience |
Gave negative feedback with my name about a model that did not show up. The model retaliated by claimng that I was rude and creepy in the messages. Happy to share the messages that I had with her. 1 single message where i said i was looking forwards to work with her, and share a moodboard. |

My first Megashoot experience and it was brilliant.The professional organisation, stunning location and cooperative weather created a welcoming and safe environment for a brilliant day of photography. I worked with 4 models who were both creative and supportive and had prepared for the shoots as we had been in contact over Instagram prior to the event. The breaks in between sessions gave me the opportunity to chat and network with other photographers and models and get a much needed breather. |

The whole experience was so positive and I loved the opportunity to watch the other photographers in action when I wasnt booked. Great networking opportunity. |

For those epic treks from the car park to the location a.k.a. the unexpected cardio session, maybe throw in some cheeky direction signs like This way to the megashoot 5 min walk, promise no uphill battlesThat way, people wont end up starring in their own lost-in-the-woods documentary. |

Overall it was an absolutely fantastic day out. I had a blast, the vibes were great, all my photographers were phenomenal and I'm so glad i came out. It was lovely getting to meet new people, and i cannot praise the organisers enough for all the work they put into these events. |
|
| Positive Experience |
All my photographers were super-lovely, and we all had a great time. I loved that the organisers set up the site to e-mail all users about timing and which person they were shooting with next. The organisers were so lovely and it's so generous of them to provide refreshments and snacks for attendees. |
|
| Negative Experience |
One thing I want to point out was that there were several male photographers who did not follow protocol snapping photos or filming me and other models without our consent while we were shooting with our allotted photographers. Neither I nor the photographer should have to stop what we're doing to tell an industry peer to behave like a professional. |
|
| Suggestions of what or how to improve |
I understand that this may not be possible, but if there could be some sort of monitoring or signaling system to flag these types of photographers or models who take footage of others without consent. It should be marked on their profiles that they've displayed this kind of unprofessional behavior, as it is a violation, and I'd like to be able to avoid or even black-list them if it's persistent behaviour. Another item I'd suggest is a station for models and photographers who've had cancellations where they can try to match up with someone in their allotted free time. I wasn't impacted by No-Shows, but I'd imagine it would be a great relief to those who've been let down to still get to produce work on the day. |
