• TWVS 26 SPECIAL #6 - Super 8 Isn’t Scary: How Becky Kinross Turned Film Into Her Signature Style
    2026/02/27

    In this Summit Special, Jason and Danny are joined by Becky Kinross of Films About Love to talk about one of the most talked-about formats in wedding filmmaking right now, Super 8.

    Becky shares how she went from curiosity to confidence using analogue film, why the process feels magical compared to digital, and how Super 8 has helped her attract the right couples and stand out in a crowded market.

    They break down the realities of shooting film at weddings, from managing limited reels and unpredictable results to choosing the right moments to capture and handling low light. Becky explains how the format forces intentional filmmaking, why it’s less complicated than people think, and how it can be both a creative tool and a powerful marketing differentiator.

    The conversation also explores pricing, profitability, burnout, and how Becky’s new Super 8-only package is helping her rebalance her workload while doing more of what she loves.

    If you’ve ever been curious about analogue filmmaking but felt intimidated by the process, this episode will give you the confidence to finally give it a go.

  • TWVS 26 Special #5 - Why the Wedding Day Isn’t the Story (And What Actually Is) with Hello Tomorrow
    2026/02/19

    In this Summit Special, Jason and Danny are joined by McLean and Erin from Hello Tomorrow Films, storytellers with nearly 20 years of experience crafting deeply emotional wedding films.

    They dive into one of the biggest mindset shifts a filmmaker can have, realising the wedding day itself isn’t the story, it’s just the setting. The real story is everything that brought the couple there. From uncovering emotional arcs and personal journeys to designing intentional shots that reinforce themes, this episode explores how powerful storytelling actually works inside wedding films.

    They discuss how to identify meaningful moments before the wedding day, how questionnaires can reveal hidden storylines, why conflict doesn’t mean drama, and how intention, not gear, is the real ingredient behind emotional films. They also talk about designing shots that visually reinforce story themes, capturing meaningful audio, and how being present and prepared on a wedding day can transform your edits.

    The conversation also explores burnout, creative overwhelm, and how their tool Plotline was built to help filmmakers find story structure faster, reduce editing paralysis, and get straight into the creative part of the process.

    If you’ve ever struggled to find the story in your footage, or felt stuck staring at a timeline wondering where to begin, this episode might completely change how you approach editing forever.

  • Ep. 102 - More Weddings, More Money… Or Just More Stress?
    2026/02/13

    In this episode, Jason and Danny tackle a question every wedding videographer eventually has to face: how many weddings is actually too many?

    They dive into the reality of overbooking, burnout, editing backlogs, and what happens when your business starts running you instead of the other way around. From 50+ wedding seasons to stacked second halves of the year, they share honest reflections on pushing capacity, learning the hard way, and recalibrating what success really looks like.

    The conversation moves into practical territory, including calculating your true financial target, understanding turnover vs salary, protecting editing days in your calendar, outsourcing strategically, and why knowing your numbers is the only way to build a sustainable career.

    They also debate whether wedding shows are still worth it in 2026, reflect on last week’s slow-motion controversy, put Jason in the hot seat for a brutally technical round of I Do IQ, and finish with a Reddit Rabbit Hole story that escalates from heartfelt speeches to absolute chaos at a Scottish wedding.

    If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re taking on too much, or not enough, this episode will help you figure out your own limit before it figures you out.

  • TWVS 26 SPECIAL #4 - Sound, Mindset, and Identity: What Actually Elevates a Wedding Film Business
    2026/02/09

    In this Summit Special, Jason and Danny are joined by Jack and Shannon from Forever Curious for a deep conversation about the parts of wedding filmmaking that matter long after the cameras are packed away.

    They explore the emotional and strategic reasons behind Forever Curious returning to their original name, why brand identity needs meaning not just aesthetics, and how listening to your audience can reveal what your business really stands for.

    Shannon dives into the mental game of running a creative business, shifting from filmmaker to business owner, reconnecting with your “why,” and building a business that supports the life you actually want, not just one that looks successful on paper.

    Jack breaks down his background in professional sound design, why audio is often the most undervalued element of wedding films, and how intentional sound, foley, and real-world audio can dramatically elevate storytelling. They discuss capturing sound on the wedding day, avoiding over-reliance on AI cleanup, and why the brain always knows when something feels fake.

    This episode is about more than filmmaking techniques. It’s about identity, purpose, and the small creative decisions that separate good wedding films from unforgettable ones.

    If you want to reconnect with why you started, improve the emotional impact of your films, and build a business that feels aligned rather than exhausting, this one will hit home.

  • Ep. 101 - The Things We Thought Mattered When Starting… But Didn’t
    2026/02/05

    In this episode, Jason and Danny look back at the things they were convinced really mattered when they first started their wedding filmmaking businesses, and why most of them turned out to be completely unnecessary.

    They talk honestly about gear obsession, buying cameras and lenses they didn’t need, wasting money on microphones, and the belief that owning the same kit as your favourite filmmakers would somehow fast-track success. Danny shares why remortgaging his house to buy equipment was a huge mistake, while Jason reflects on years of overbuying in search of marginal improvements.

    The conversation moves into what actually makes a difference, experience on a wedding day, storytelling, anticipation, education, mentoring, styled shoots, and investing in things that help you get booked rather than just feel prepared.

    They also cover second-hand gear, why simplicity often leads to better films, the value of premium music, hard drives being the least exciting but most important investment, and why you don’t need the latest flagship camera to shoot great weddings.

    Alongside the main topic, the episode features the Lumix Lottery, a lively round of I Do I.Q with Danny in the hot seat, and a wild Reddit Rabbit Hole story involving a groom’s “surprise guest” that absolutely nobody asked for.

    If you’re starting out, thinking about upgrading, or questioning where your money is best spent, this episode is a much-needed reality check.

  • TWVS 26 SPECIAL #3 - Google Ads vs Instagram: How Wedding Videographers Can Get Booked Without Posting Every Day
    2026/02/02

    In this Summit Special, Jason and Danny are joined by Micaela from Get It Together to break down one of the most misunderstood topics in the wedding industry, paid advertising.

    Micaela shares how she booked over 90 shoots in a year, many without relying on Instagram at all, and explains why Google Ads have become the backbone of her business, especially after relocating to Scotland.

    The conversation covers search intent vs interruption marketing, how couples actually find suppliers, why not everyone needs to be on Instagram, and how being visible where people are already looking can unlock bookings you’d never reach through social media alone.

    They also explore niche targeting, proposal and elopement work, corporate opportunities, why bland ads often convert better than creative ones, and how videographers can stop copying what everyone else is doing and build a marketing system that suits their life and priorities.

    If you’re burned out on content, questioning Instagram’s role in your business, or curious about paid ads but scared to try again, this episode will completely reframe how you think about visibility and bookings.

  • Ep. 100 - Capturing Interviews at Weddings: The Questions, Timing, and Setup That Make Them Actually Work
    2026/01/29

    It’s Episode 100 of That Wedding Videographer Podcast, and Jason and Danny are kicking off Season 3 properly, with new lights in the studio, new segments in the show, and a big topic that’s been taking over wedding filmmaking lately, interviews at weddings.

    They chat about why Alex Weldon of Molehill Media is raising the bar in the UK scene, what makes interview-led wedding films so addictive, and how to actually pull this off on a real wedding day, from choosing the right location and using natural light, to deciding whether dinner is the best time to grab people without dragging them away from the fun.

    They also dig into what separates a cringe guest message from a genuinely emotional, story-driven interview, the kinds of questions that unlock better answers, and why the best “interviews” feel more like a conversation than a script.

    On top of that, they introduce three brand-new features for Season 3:
    The LUMIX Lottery, where a random topic gets pulled from a box, I Do IQ, a weekly wedding and video quiz, and the Reddit Rabbit Hole, kicking off with an absolutely unhinged wedding email thread that spirals into chaos.

  • TWVS 26 SPECIAL #2 - How CRMs and Workflows Can Save Your Sanity, With Sarah Craig of WIVA
    2026/01/26

    In this Summit Special, Jason and Danny are joined by Sarah Craig of Joy Story Photography and Weeva, one of the UK wedding industry’s go-to experts on CRMs, workflows, and backend systems.

    Sarah shares how she runs multiple businesses at once without losing her mind, why workflows are not scary, and how a properly set-up CRM can save you hours every single week. They break down what a CRM actually is in plain English, the biggest mistakes videographers make when setting them up, and why most people either overcomplicate things or never get started at all.

    The conversation covers automated workflows, lead management, inquiry replies, client portals, payment reminders, personalising emails without sounding robotic, and how to keep the human touch while still using automation. Sarah also shares practical tips you can implement right now, including Gmail templates, simple lead workflows, and how to map your entire client journey.

    They also talk about AI in workflows, why you should never blindly trust automated replies, and how tools like Wedola are changing the way wedding suppliers manage their businesses.

    If admin, emails, and client management are overwhelming you, this episode will genuinely change how you think about running your wedding filmmaking business.
