🎙️ New Podcast Episode

What if growing your wedding film business doesn’t actually mean shooting more weddings?

In this episode of the Coda Podcast, I’m speaking with @abigailandlukefilms about balancing a successful wedding film business with raising a young family, and how that’s completely changed what success looks like for them.

We talk about embracing a quieter year, building a business around the life they want, and why a viral reel with millions of views didn’t translate into more bookings.

We also dive into their creative process, from next-day teasers to crafting their longer films, and the importance of capturing the people and moments that make every wedding unique.

It’s a great conversation about creativity, marketing and finding the right balance between business and life.

Any other 90s kids here who were obsessed with the original GTA? 🎮

I’m pretty sure that’s where my love for a top-down drone shot started 😂

More recently, I’ve been putting those shots to work by using them as the background of my @vidflow.co galleries.

It’s such a simple touch, but it instantly makes the gallery feel more immersive and brings the whole delivery experience to life.

A little detail that makes a big difference.

🎙️New Episode

@sparks_film_weddings has had huge success generating bookings through Instagram, thanks to the time and effort he puts into creating engaging reels from his couples’ wedding days. We break down what goes into that content, why it works, and how he’s been able to turn short-form videos into a genuine source of enquiries and bookings.

But while it might be the short-form content that gets couples through the door, it’s Sam’s incredible feature films that really blow them away.

We dive into the intricate process behind crafting his 15-minute-plus films, from piecing together the story and choosing the right moments, to creating something that feels considered, emotional and completely unique to each couple.

@christopherpaulfilms has been in the wedding industry for over 20 years and is now known for filming extravagant, planner-led weddings all over the world.

We talk through the journey that took him from where he started to working in the luxury wedding market, including the steps he took to build the right relationships, position his brand and start attracting a completely different level of wedding.

But we also get into the side of luxury weddings that you don’t always see on Instagram — the expectations, pressure and challenges that come with working on huge productions alongside some of the best planners and suppliers in the industry.

It’s a fascinating insight into not only how you break into the luxury market, but what it actually takes to stay there.

🎙️ New Podcast Episode - John-Mark Films

@johnmarkfilms realised pretty early on in his career that there was a ceiling on what he could charge within his local market. So rather than accepting that limitation, he made a conscious effort to look further afield.

We talk about the strategies he used to break out of his local area, build a brand that could reach a much wider audience, and ultimately attract the kind of clients who were willing to invest more in their wedding films.

It’s a really interesting look at how changing where you market yourself can completely change the kind of business you’re able to build.

Adding a live updating editing queue has been one of the best things I’ve done for my business. It allows couples to track the progress of their films and it stops those dreaded ‘are my films ready yet’ emails that fill us all with anxiety at peak season.

🔗🎙️ Link in bio

Despite already running a highly successful wedding film business, @seanraymondfilms made the brave decision to completely overhaul both his brand and his shooting style, creating films that feel much more connected to the filmmaker he actually wants to be.

We talk about what drove that change, how he completely transformed the way he shoots and approaches a wedding day, and the ongoing challenge of repositioning his business to attract a different market of clients.

We also discuss how changing personal circumstances have influenced the kind of business Sean wants to build, and why sometimes success isn’t just about growing a business, but reshaping it to work around the life you actually want to live.

It’s a really interesting conversation about evolving as a filmmaker, taking risks when things are already going well, and having the confidence to change direction even when the destination isn’t guaranteed.

The wedding filmmaking world is in an era of upheaval with a new generation of filmmakers and styles flooding the industry. @toast.films is considered one of the OGs but despite this he has always managed to keep his work looking fresh and at the forefront of the changing styles and trends. 

Using cameras like an artist would paint brushes, he changes it up constantly to match whatever feeling he wants to portray. A mixed media approach of super8, camcorders, shutter speeds, focal lengths, Chris keeps you guessing with every frame and the results are hypnotically engaging. by @coda.conference
