My guest this week is one of Ireland’s very best documentary wedding photographers: The fab Shane O’Neill. Winner of 6 Reportage Awards and 2 Story Awards, speaker at the inaugural Doc Day, and all-round lovely guy, Shane shares so much on the episode, including:
- how he got into documentary at college, and getting his first wedding,
- getting in the zone when shooting back-to-backs,
- something we don’t talk about too much: group shots and couple time,
- working with videographers,
- the story behind one of his specific Reportage Awards,
- workflow,
- why images in 16:9 format can be so effective (like in one of his Story Awards),
- tips for if you’re feeling a bit stagnant,
- speaking at Doc Day (and why you should attend the next one)
- and so much more…
