The Flockers

After almost 10 days in Ireland, I’m back home and still overwhelmed, trying to soak it all up. Being part of The Flockers Workshop was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had, not only from a photographer’s perspective, but also for me personally. The Flockers created a safe space for deep connections, boundless creativity, a masterpiece of inspiration. Listening and learning from each other made me see things from completely new perspectives. There are no limits, no boundaries, no right or wrong. Being surrounded by people who share the same passion and creating magic amidst the beautiful landscape of Northern Ireland was just a magnificent, once in a lifetime adventure. These days, these people, this special event will forever have a place in my heart. There are no words to describe my gratitude for the most amazing organizers Selina & Nina who put this unique workshop together. This was just epic! — Christina Eisl Fotografie

This was our final, and most magical spot for shooting with one.story.hero during the incredible The Flockers Workshop in Northern Ireland ❤️
I didn’t sign up to this retreat for the ‘content’ (that was just a wee bonus!) but to learn from people I massively admire and respect in the photography community. one.story.hero and  ohh.ginger are 2 artists who’s work always makes me go “DAYUM!🔥🔥” and I was keen to hear about their creative process. It was also lovely to be introduced to the work of lovely gabybolivarweddings (who is now also a favourite! 🫶🏼)
Legends Selina and Nina lanned and executed a wonderful few days! And managed to attract the most lovely, genuine bunch of Flocker’s ❤️ So happy to have been part of it xxxxx — Susie Olzen Photography

Als ich am Samstag letzte Woche in meinem Bett aufwachte, liefen mir die Tränen über das Gesicht. Ich konnte nicht fahren. Ich wollte nicht fahren.
Der Morgen verging zu schnell, und ich war unterwegs. Flughafen, ich komme. So ganz alleine kam dann die Angst. Was erwartet mich? Was ist, wenn ich da einfach nicht reinpasse? Was ist, wenn ich merke, wie schlecht ich eigentlich arbeite? Was ist, wenn ich nicht merke, wo meine Fehler sind? Was, wenn ich die Tage alleine bin? Was, wenn…

Und dann waren wir da.
Diese unglaubliche Gruppe, diese wahnsinnig schöne Unterkunft, diese wundervolle Herzlichkeit. ♥️ Unglaublich, unbegreiflich, unmöglich, alles Gefühlte, Erlebte in Worte zu fassen.

Wir haben gelacht, geweint, zusammen gelernt und uns unglaublich unterstützt. Diese wunderbaren Menschen alle um sich haben zu dürfen und voneinander lernen zu dürfen, how lucky can I get? Ich hatte mich echt verloren. Ich hatte den Spaß, die Freude, die Leidenschaft an meiner Arbeit verloren und hier wieder gefunden. Danke an theflockersworkshop, ihr habt mir das alles wieder gegeben.

Was für eine unglaubliche Reise. Was für unglaubliche Menschen. Danke an euch alle ♥️ Ihr alle habt es zu einem kleinen Daheimgefühl gemacht, zu einem wundervollen Marmeladenglas Moment. — Marlies Schnabl

I loved the experience, thank you so much for inviting me to learn and share. You did a great job; the organization was fabulous and you took such great care of everyone. The food was incredible and the whole place, mood, everything. It was truly beautiful few days, and I can’t wait to see where you take it from this first edition! Looking forward to watch you next year, I’m sure it’s going to be fabulous. Thank you Nina and Selina! — Anna
