The Doc Shop

A One-Day Intensive in Documentary Wedding Photography

Annie & Kevin Kheffache are two of Ireland’s leading documentary wedding photographers and the founders of Doc Day.

This March marks the 5th edition of The Doc Shopand we’re excited to be bringing it back in its most hands-on format yet.

The Doc Shop is a one-day, in-person intensive for photographers who want to refine their documentary approach at a deeper, more intentional level.

What We Cover On The Day

This is a full, live-led day, taught by both Annie and Kevin from start to finish.

We walk through an entire wedding as a creative and technical process, from morning prep to the dance floor, including:

  • How we approach a wedding day as a documentary story, not a shot list

  • Anticipation, timing, and positioning in fast-moving environments

  • Composition under pressure and in difficult light

  • Our full gear setup and why we use what we use

  • Flash for documentary work, when to use it and when to leave it alone

  • Editing for narrative, emotional flow, and impact

  • How awards images are actually made, selected, and refined

  • Portfolio reviews and group critique, focused on helping you see patterns and gaps in your own work

This is open, practical, and honest. We share what works for us, what doesn’t, and the thinking behind every choice we make.

Who This Is For

  • Photographers shooting their first weddings and wanting to build strong documentary foundations

  • Photographers aiming to elevate their storytelling, consistency and confidence

  • Anyone curious about pushing their work toward international recognition and awards, without losing authenticity

  • Their ability to foster a safe and constructive environment for critiquing our images added immense value to my experience. I loved the small group size of varying experiences, there was so much knowledge around the table.

  • "The way Annie and Kevin break down what’s happening before the moment changed how I shoot completely. My last two weddings feel like they were taken by a different photographer."
