Learning to Fly 2021 Wedding Photography Retreat

Every other October 30 or so wedding photographers descend on Culdaff, Co Donegal, to take part in Jay Doherty's Learning to Fly Wedding Photography Retreat... it's a coming together of like-minded souls who, in Jay's words, gather as a community to listen and share, laugh and cry, forge new bonds and relight old unions. On top of that there's also the opportunity to learn from some of the top photographers from across Europe...

The 2021 retreat bought together a first class line up of educators from the world of wedding photgraphy - Victor Lax, Simon LeClerq, John Gillooley, Paula O'Hara & Lauren Chambers, with the bonus of Doreen Kilfeather sharing her stories from the world of editorial photography. Everyone of them a great photographer, artist, business person, and all just really lovely people too.

I had the absolute pleasure of tagging along over the two days of the retreat to document the goings on - to take photographs of the photographers - no pressure there then! Here's a few of my resulting photos...
