  • From Hobby to “Worth It”: Jazmin Andrade on Wedding Photography, Client Experience, and Capturing the Party
    Jan 21 2026

    Wedding photographer Jazmin Andrade joins the IDOIQ Podcast for her first podcast ever—with her husband Miguel along for moral support—and shares how a simple point-and-shoot gift turned into a full photography business. Jazmin talks through her path from early low-budget bookings to confidently charging what she’s worth, how styled shoots and workshops helped her level up, and why she prioritizes customer experience as much as the photos themselves.

    They nerd out on favorite engagement photo locations around Northwest Arkansas (hello, Crystal Bridges and Tanyard Creek) and Jasmine’s favorite venue to shoot (Horsehead Lake Lodge). Plus, they fire through a fun rapid-fire “this or that” wedding game—first looks, adults-only receptions, sparkler exits (hard pass), photo booths, ceremony timing, and whether couples should spend more on food or entertainment. If you’re planning a wedding or hiring a photographer, this episode is a practical, funny, and encouraging look at what makes wedding photos feel real—and what makes vendors unforgettable.

  • Creative Wedding Seating Charts: Fun, Functional & Unforgettable Guest Experiences
    Jan 21 2026

    In this episode of the IDOIQ Podcast, Brock and wedding planner Brittany Bloom dive into one of the most overlooked—but impactful—wedding details: seating charts.

    From champagne walls and acrylic displays to sports-themed, artistic, nautical, and interactive designs, they explore creative seating chart ideas that do more than tell guests where to sit—they become part of the experience. Brittany shares real-world examples from weddings she’s planned, what works (and what doesn’t), and why visibility, flow, and personalization matter just as much as aesthetics.

    They also talk through practical considerations like guest volume, readability, budget, venue layout, and how seating charts can double as décor, favors, or conversation starters. Whether you’re going bold or keeping it classic, this episode helps couples think beyond the basic poster board and create something memorable, functional, and uniquely them.

    Perfect for couples, planners, and vendors looking to elevate the guest experience—without unnecessary stress.
