Another Great Megashoot. Well Organised. Looking forward to the next one. |
|
| Positive Experience |
Despite the weather all in attendance were in good spirits and everyone seemed to get something from the day out at the beach. |
|
| Negative Experience |
NO SHOWS !! Last Minute Refusal of Shoots in the days Hours leading up to the event, and as can be seen most had no intention of turning up on the day. |
|
| Suggestions of what or how to improve |
The NO Shows and Last Minute cancellation of bookings is a little frustrating to say the least. Perhaps a little monetary deposit or a small fee for taking part might force people to think twice before making themselves available for events. |

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. |

Great planning by the team as usual. They were at the location early in the morning just to prepare everything and keep us updated on the situation.Lovely location, amazing team, great fun. |
|
| Positive Experience |
This event had challenging weather at the start but the community came through and we had a great time. |
|
| Negative Experience |
A few no shows as usual but most of the models communicated beforehand, and the weather played a huge factor. |
|
| Suggestions of what or how to improve |
Meeting points at key locations bus stops, train stations could be used to arrange car pools together. A few models had trouble to arrive at the location because they walked all they way.At the moment we have a section for models to say what styles they are interested in. Maybe we cal do a similar section for photographers. Photographers can indicate on their portfolio how they handle the after shoot part. Rough timeline for editing time. Do models get unedited pictures, or only a selected list of edited pictures. |

Another great Megashoot somewhat spoiled by the weather. Very well organised, but of course we had no control over the weather. A few models decided to call it a day when the weather got poor but well done to those who carried on. |

Well done to those who turned up and worked under very poor conditions. |

Due to late cancellations, many photographers left without models to shoot |

Mega Shoot is an amazing day. Two people who come regularly, it's like a family. My thanks to the organisational team, they are amazing. It is so well run, it's quite incredible. I have met new people in my life who have become friends. True. Megashoes. It is amazing opportunity to meet and network with people of the same interest? It's also very interesting to watch other photographers work. And the way they handle the shoot. I would like to thank the guys again for organising. It came out of work they put in is quite incredible. People should really appreciate this. Between the websites. The organisation just blows my mind. Getting emails. When you're next shoots on, what are your models registered in or not? There's nothing more you can ask her. I think they even have a deal with the weather gods of Ireland. |

|
| Negative Experience |
The only negative thing for these events are the no shows. Life happens and things change, we all understand that some cancellation can occur. However the no show rate for the last event was bad. I alone had 3 No Shows in a row. 3 Models that did not even bother to cancel beforehand, or send me a single message to let me know. This behaviour would destroy a professional reputation. |

Exclude people who do not show up models and photographers and enforce a participation deposit that is voided if someone does not show up. |

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. |

His was my first time attending, and overall, I really enjoyed the event it was well organised and ran smoothly. I had booked four shoots, but only three ended up happening as one of the models had to leave due to the rain. They did let me know, so I completely understand and dont hold that against them. I do wish I had booked more sessions in advance, as once I walked around to see if I could fill the gap, I found that there were mostly photographers waiting and very few models available for ad-hoc shoots. Despite that, it was a great experience and a fantastic concept. Looking forward to the next one Ill definitely plan ahead better next time |
