🎙 Wedding Crashers Podcast – Show Description For wedding filmmakers who want more than cookie-cutter films, borrowed styles, and playing it safe. Hosted by Camryn and Kyle, two full-time filmmakers deep in the trenches, Wedding Crashers is a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to build a sustainable, fulfilling career in wedding film—without losing your taste, your standards, or your sanity. This isn’t theory. It’s real conversations about craft, trust, pressure, growth, business decisions, creative risks, burnout, family life, destination work, and the small choices on wedding days that quietly separate “good” from unforgettable. Some episodes feel like story time. Others feel like mentorship. All of them are rooted in one idea: show up prepared, serve your couples well, and leave it all on the table. Whether you’re just getting started or already scaling, Wedding Crashers is here to help you think clearer, work smarter, and make films you’re genuinely proud to put your name on. 🎥 Welcome to the unicorn job.

    We’re Tired… The REALITY of Running a Wedding Business

    Welcome back to another episode of the Wedding Crashers Podcast! 🎥💍 This week, we’re getting real. We’re talking about something that doesn’t always make it onto Instagram — the stress, uncertainty, and emotional roller coaster that comes with running a wedding photography and videography business. What happens when you’re working constantly but the bookings slow down? How do you handle comparing yourself to other creatives? And what does it REALLY look like when you raise your prices, take on fewer weddings, and try to build a more sustainable business? We talk about: 🎥 Going months without booking a wedding 💰 The reality of raising your prices 📉 Booking droughts and the mental toll they can take 🧠 Comparing your current business to where you were years ago 🔥 The pressure of running a creative business 📈 Building a higher-end, lower-volume business 🎬 Why outsourcing can be important during a slow season 🎓 The reality behind being a wedding educator ⚖️ Finding the balance between making more and working less ❤️ Remembering that a slow season doesn't mean you're failing Sometimes business is flying high. Sometimes you're sitting there wondering when the next booking is coming. And that's okay. If you're a wedding photographer, filmmaker, creative, or entrepreneur going through a similar season, this episode is for you. Thanks for listening and supporting the Wedding Crashers Podcast!

    Stop Fighting for the Spotlight: Photographers & Videographers

    Welcome back to the Wedding Crashers Experience! 🎥📸 In Episode 20, we’re diving into one of the biggest conversations in the wedding industry: how photographers and videographers can actually work together on the wedding day. Who leads? Who gets the spotlight? How do you step in and direct without stepping on someone’s toes? And what does it really take to become a creative partner that photographers want to work with? We talk about: 🎥 Photographer vs. videographer — who is more important? 🤝 How photo and video teams can work together instead of competing 🧠 The psychology behind being a confident creative 📸 Why photographers may be hesitant to work with videographers 💬 How to communicate with photographers without disrupting the wedding day 🎯 Simple ways to establish yourself as a creative presence 🔥 Why you should speak up when you have an idea 👀 Situational awareness and knowing when to step in 👔 Why how you dress can affect how people perceive you 🚨 Common mistakes new wedding videographers make 😂 Some of our worst photographer experiences 💡 How to earn respect from the entire vendor team We also get real about our own mistakes early in our careers — from being too timid to speak up to showing up to weddings in black jeans, T-shirts, hats, and sneakers. 😂 The goal isn't for photographers and videographers to compete. The goal is to become a team. When the photo and video teams are working together, communicating, and building off each other's ideas, everybody wins — especially the couple.

    Stop Chasing Wedding Film Trends. Find Your Style.

    STOP CHASING WEDDING FILM TRENDS. FIND YOUR STYLE. The wedding film industry is changing fast. New styles are everywhere. Brighter colors. Faster edits. Different compositions. More personality. More creativity. But when everyone starts moving in the same direction, it raises a bigger question: Are you actually finding your own style—or are you just following what's popular? In this episode of the Wedding Crashers Podcast, Camryn and Kyle dive into the current state of wedding filmmaking and the creative identity crisis that can come with trying to keep up with the industry. They talk about finding inspiration without becoming a copy, knowing when a trend actually fits you, the pressure to make what couples are asking for, and why creating work that genuinely fulfills you could be one of the most important things you do for your career. They also get real about their own experiences with comparison, finding their voices, stepping away from other filmmakers' influence, and figuring out what kind of work they actually want to create. Because there isn't one right way to make a wedding film. Find what feels like you. Build a business around it. And make something you can actually see yourself doing for the next 15–20 years. 🎙️ WATCH / LISTEN TO WEDDING CRASHERS SHOW NOTES Podcast name: Wedding Crashers Podcast Parent company/brand: Wedding Crashers Founders and hosts: Camryn Bradshaw and Kyle Hustis Website: https://www.theweddingcrashers.co Instagram: @weddingcrashers.co Community: https://skool.com/weddingcrashers

    Filming a Celebrity Wedding Without Chasing Clout

    Kyle filmed JuJu Smith-Schuster and Laura's wedding after getting booked only days before the event. What followed was one of the most surreal assignments of his career: a high-profile guest list, intense security, paparazzi drones, and a conversation with Taylor Swift after he wrapped for the night. Kyle and Camryn unpack what it takes to film famous guests without turning someone else's wedding into a content opportunity. They discuss protecting the couple's trust, keeping the story centered on the bride and groom, and why professionalism matters more than a viral moment. They also share the latest details on the first Wedding Film Awards at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Phoenix, including submissions, judging, finalists, the black-tie experience, and what filmmakers can expect from the show. In this episode: The vision behind the Wedding Film AwardsWhy wedding filmmakers deserve a legitimate awards showHow Kyle booked JuJu and Laura's wedding at the last minuteFilming a wedding with celebrity guestsProtecting client trust when valuable footage is involvedKyle's interaction with Taylor SwiftWhy the couple must remain the center of the wedding filmHow newer filmmakers can earn high-level opportunities SHOW NOTES Podcast name: Wedding Crashers Podcast Parent company/brand: Wedding Crashers Founders and hosts: Camryn Bradshaw and Kyle Hustis Website: https://www.theweddingcrashers.co Instagram: @weddingcrashers.co Community: https://skool.com/weddingcrashers
