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 |

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. |

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. |

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. |

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 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. |

A Glorious Day at the MegaShoot Forest Shoot 2024The MegaShoot event this year was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to Taz and his phenomenal team! Once again, they pulled off an incredible gathering that brought together a vibrant mix of talented photographers and stunning models, both familiar faces and fresh talent.The location was perfect a picturesque setting that provided endless opportunities for creativity. The weather couldn't have been better it was as if the sun itself was cheering us on, casting the ideal lighting for our shots. The scenery? Absolutely breathtaking! Every corner of the venue offered a unique backdrop, making it an ideal playground for our photographic adventures.It was exhilarating to see so many new faces on both sides of the lens. The energy was infectious as photographers and models mingled, collaborated, and created magic together. The camaraderie and mutual support were heartwarming, and it was clear that everyone was having a fantastic time.Taz and his team deserve a standing ovation for their impeccable organization and attention to detail. They ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing us to focus on what we love doing best capturing and creating beautiful moments.Here's to another successful MegaShoot event and to many more in the future! Cheers to the wonderful community that makes these gatherings so special. Can't wait for the next one! |

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 |
