  • EP90 - The Photographer/Videographer Dynamic on a Wedding Day -- with Georgia & Micah, and Kristin Meuth
    Jan 5 2026

    Who should lead posing on a wedding day — the photographer or the videographer?

    We sit down with two wedding photographers (Georgia & Micah) and a wedding videographer (Kristin) to unpack the real dynamics of working together on a wedding day. From sharing space and pacing long timelines to managing ego, energy, and communication, this conversation gets honest about what actually makes collaboration work.

    We cover:

    • who should lead posing (and when it depends)
    • how photographers and videographers can support each other under pressure
    • why kindness, communication, and teamwork matter more than control
    • how keeping the focus on the couple changes everything

    If you shoot weddings and want smoother days, better collaboration, and a stronger client experience — this one’s for you.

  • EP87 – Why the Weird Bits Matter Most -- with Oli Sansom of Briars Atlas
    Oct 27 2025

    Weddings are weird — and that’s what makes them beautiful. Melbourne photographer Oli Sansom joins us to talk about paying attention, resisting content culture, surviving chaos, and why the images that matter most often feel quiet, awkward, or unimportant at the time. We get into the absurd, the intimate, the theatrical — and what it means to shoot like a flâneur.

  • EP86 – The Unexpected Value of Mentoring -- with Summer Grace
    Oct 13 2025

    A lot of photographers dream about teaching one day, but most hold back because they don’t feel “ready.” In this episode, Summer Grace returns to the podcast to talk about why waiting might be the wrong move.

    We get into how explaining your process can sharpen your own craft, what gaps she wishes had been filled when she was starting out, and why building community matters more than chasing follower counts.

    It’s not a step-by-step on how to sell a course — it’s a conversation about the why behind education, and why you might already have more to share than you think.
