Dunglass Estate

I travelled up to the Dunglass Estate in Scotland to attend Thrive a two day wedding photography conference run by Lisa Devlin of Photography Farm.

“My key thing for a wedding day, I will not orchestrate I will only highlight, if it’s chaotic I’ll play into the chaos.”

“That means I show the good the bad and the ugly, I show the f*ck ups, I show the tears, I show the split milk, the bloody heels, broken nails. I am allergic to perfection, that’s maybe what it is.”

Brooke’s talk on day one was so inspiring spending time watching her shoot, interacting with Mackenzie and Chris and hearing her breakdown her shots and talk about light was nothing short of amazing.

It was absolutely mind blowing, a day of learning from some of the industry’s leaders sharing their knowledge and skills followed by a day of shoot sessions with the mentors. It was so lovely to spend some time hanging out meeting incredible photographers from all around the world.
