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.

Positive Experience

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 event was so well run there is nothing I would want change.

Recalling my first time at Bull Island beach a few years ago, I can't forget how amazing it was. When I returned for the latest event, I was genuinely happy to see how much the Megashoot community has grown. It's nice to see more models and photographers getting involved. This event is just a lot of fun, with all these fantastic people working together to capture great photos and have a good time.

Overall Feedback

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.

An understandable level of confusion at the start but quickly disappeared.

Suggestions of what or how to improve

I would like that models photographers get 3-5 days to confirm or refuse a booking. One model had me waiting over 4 weeks for a reply messed up my day

My first Megashoot, and I was very impressed by the level of organisation and the friendly positive atmosphere there.All went very smoothly and the location and weather helped too.Overall really enjoyed it.

Positive Experience

Better organised than some of the paid shoots, I have attended.

Negative Experience

Nothing at all really.Oh OK - if you insist - 4G5G reception wasn't great -

Suggestions of what or how to improve

Can't think of anything really.I suppose I should say that I had no issues with models accepting or rejecting shoots in a reasonable time. However, I know from chatting on the day, that some others had slightly unreasonable delays probably applies vice-versa too.

This was a really fantastic day despite of weather and no show from many models. As usual, very well organised and I can see the efforts put in by organising this starting from getting the website ready to organising registration and badges, to snacks and water after a tiring shoot. There is so much work that happens behind the scenes that people don't see. So thank you for all of it. I always look forward to this event every year

Positive Experience

Everything.

Suggestions of what or how to improve

I know this is already being addressed but no show of models or last min cancellations. They will book you from the start and then last few days suddenly cancel without any notice or explaination, forget about apology. It makes life difficult to find someone else. My suggestion is when booking opens, anyone can book anyone if they are showing free. Models or photographers are then not allowed to cancel. Only if there is a genuine reason, they can request organisers to cancel it with adequate reasons and notice to other party.

Fantastic event, I was only able to stay for the morning part I was supposed to have 3 shoots but there were 2 no shows but the organisers helped me out by asking one model who was free to do some shooting with me so I shot two models in total.

Positive Experience

The organisers made me feel very welcome and were very warm and helpful in helping me find a model to shoot.

Negative Experience

About the shoot itself and the organisation nothing negative.

Suggestions of what or how to improve

A designated area for models photographers who are free in between shoots so it is obvious who is free and ready to shoot. Location shoots so many possibilities

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.

Positive Experience

Everything is so amazing. Well ran and well organised. I think it's an absolute credit to the to the organisation team. I don't think any other event is run as well in Ireland.

Negative Experience

People who register and don't turn up. It takes 2 seconds to send a text to someone. The Mega Shoe team put in hundreds of hours. To make it happen.

I'm not sure you can it is so well ran May be charged a registration fee. That would help with ongoing costs. Maybe buy dinner for the Organisation team and their helpers and Partners. in a very nice restaurant. Thanks Very much guys, For yet another amazing day and a little bit of sunburn

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.

I cannot imagine how much hard work the guys put in behind the scenes. They are that busy helping us on the day they don't even really get to shoot them self's. The MegaShoot team is professional, friendly It's just an incredible day. Also amazing opportunity to practice your skill set and watch others tackle the same obstacles you have. I cannot recommend Mega Shoot enough and thank the guys. This year I introduced 4 new models to MegaShoot and they all had an amazing time and thanked me for bringing them. The guys that run mega shoot, they should be professional event organizers. Thanks you very much guyO

Despite the weather all in attendance were in good spirits and everyone seemed to get something from the day out at the beach.

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.

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.

Positive Experience

Meeting photographers and just having a laugh while waiting for the next time slot. I had 5 empty slots on the day but didnt get bored because there were plenty of interesting people to talk to.Clear and precice communication arround anything and all related to the event.

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.

Suggestions of what or how to improve

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