    Abigail & Luke // We went Viral and it was BAD for business

    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 Abigail and Luke 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.

    Sparks Film // Instagram Reels that get you Bookings

    Sam 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.

    Christopher Paul Films // The Reality of the Luxury Wedding Market

    Chris 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.

    John Mark Films // Breaking Out of your Local Market

    Mark 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.

    Sean Raymond // Reinventing your Filmmaking Style

    Despite already running a highly successful wedding film business, Sean 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.

    Clique Visuals // Maximising the Client Experience & Your Films

    Known for his high-energy films, Alfie from Clique Visuals breaks down how he creates an environment on a wedding day that gives couples the freedom to really be themselves. We talk about how that approach not only creates brilliant moments for him to capture, but also helps make sure his couples have the best possible experience on the day. And, in true Alfie fashion, we also get into some of the juicy stuff - including the story of the time he actually removed a content creator from a wedding.

    Fletcher Films // Building a Luxury Wedding Brand

    Today on the Coda Podcast I’m joined by Harrison Fletcher from Fletcher Films. Harrison started his business at just 21 years old and has spent the last decade building a respected luxury wedding filmmaking brand. But weddings weren’t the original plan—he actually wanted to be a YouTuber, but the storytelling and content creation skills he developed along the way became the foundation of his success. In this episode, we talk about building a business with intention, breaking into the luxury market, and why networking and collaborating with other filmmakers has played such an important role in his journey.
