In this episode I go through why I think this year is the year that Hybrid Photography and Videography shooting will completely blow up. Sure, the past few years there has been a rise of people using both photo and video to tell stories, particularly to market themselves and we have seen the popularity of content creation becoming an integral part of all our businesses. 

But I really believe we are at a tipping point where video is no longer an afterthought or a tag on to what consumer / clients / couples want and what businesses need to offer. I feel this year is when it becomes integral to being a creator and technology is almost at a point where there is no longer a reason to not capture both still and moving images as a part of your work. 

It's the start of a New Year, so a great time to consider how you want to take your business and your storytelling skills forward into the future. If you have been sat on the fence about trying to use video or photo in your work then hopefully this episode will provide the motivation to take some action, experiment and see where hybrid shooting could take your business.

It has been a while. I have been working my way through the busy summer, giving 100% to my couples, clocking up the edits, spending time with the family and something had to give...it was the podcast. 

Sorry about that, but inspired by the typical post summer season backlog and struggle to find life balance as a small creative business owner I wanted to pass on things I have learnt and developed that may be helpful.

In this episode we talk about one of the most talked about things amongst photographers and filmmakers - cameras! 

Hybrid photo and video shooting requires a different level of speed and features from a camera, so if you are looking to get into hybrid shooting this episode will be really useful when it comes to choosing which camera system and model to use. 

We discuss the cameras we have used previously, what we use now and what we will potentially look for in future cameras. It's not just about geeking out on tech, this conversation goes into practical considerations and we even contemplate if it really matters what you use.

Between us we have a healthy experience of using cameras from most manufacturers, so although we have our favourites, we chat about this in an objective way and we hope you enjoy the insight.

In our first proper episode hosting together we discuss the challenges of capturing a wedding in still photography and videography as a solo hybrid shooter. We go through an entire wedding day and discuss how we would approach each part of the day and the workarounds for the various aspects that need to be captured in both photo and video at the same time. 

This is a great episode for anyone looking at offering hybrid who is unsure about how they can get the coverage they want, we hope it is helpful.

In this episode I ramble on about a topic really close to my heart - music. Music is a huge part of my creative inspiration and forms a large part of what I believe makes my work unique to others. Not necessarily because I pick completely different music to all the other wedding filmmakers out there, but because of the thought process that goes into using a song. 

So that's what I talk about in this episode and I talk about where I get my music from. More to follow on the music thing in coming weeks as I try to assist you in finding music for your own films.

It is that time of the year when if you live and work in the northern hemisphere you will be winding down from wedding season and trying to stay motivated to get through the editing list before the ball drops for next year! After discussing a variety of topics around how we capture things on the actual wedding day we are shifting to how we edit what we captured into something that will tell the story of our couples weddings day and bring back all the excitement and emotion. 

Editing is the most time consuming aspect of being a photographer or videographer, which means having efficient processes when it comes to this area of your business is where you can gain the most time back. I am going to share my process for editing which will hopefully help you to think about your own editing and organisation process and how you can be as efficient as possible.

It is rare these days that I get excited by a piece of camera equipment. Getting new stuff at this point is like getting a new car, its great, but when you realise it does the same thing as your last car (gets you for A to B) the novelty wears off pretty quick. A new camera now is just a replacement for the old one that does the same thing, but a fraction better than the old one. 

But every now and then you see an opportunity. You can see a potential for being able to use something to do things you couldn't do before. That's what happened for me when they announced the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. This fairly cheap, small and unassuming camera might just be the thing I have been looking for to be able to elevate and create further efficiencies in my workflow as a hybrid photo and video shooter. The best part is, if this is what it can do, think of where we will be in a few years time - that's even more exciting. The future is here!

So I bought it and in this episode I discuss my initial thoughts, its initial use at a real wedding and how I plan to integrate it into my set-up going forwards.

In this episode I am talking through the advances that have been made in small, portable audio recorders in the last couple of years and discussing my current and potential future go-to set-ups. 

Audio is so important for creating powerful and emotive films as well as capturing compressive wedding memories for our couples. For any photographers looking to add video to what they offer and for all you hybrid shooters and filmmakers out there I give you a real example of why the newer audio recorders are well worth the investment.

When we first started out there wasn't one place we could go, one person who could explain the basic fundamentals of what we would need to consider and the knowledge and skills that we should develop to become confident and competent at shooting weddings as a photographer or videographer. 

So as most people are likely to be in the thick of their wedding season and will be actually shooting weddings rather than focussing on editing, marketing and their business we thought it was a great time to record a series of podcasts that would explore what the fundamentals are and to delve into areas that can be more difficult to master.

As most of our work is from photographing and filming weddings and probably most of the people in this community are doing the same we usually discuss topics around hybrid shooting weddings. But hybrid shooting can provide so many opportunities for photography and videography work outside of weddings. 

In this episode we discuss how you can increase your revenue and create greater financial security by diversifying the work we do and incorporating photo and video into what we offer to those clients making us more likely to be hired.

It is amazing how connected we all are today, and the world of social media has created some amazing marketing opportunities for us all to reach potential clients and speak to an audience. But what happens when it gets used in a more negative way, potentially in a way that impacts our business or even us personally? 

On the back of a busy couple of weeks with various viral topics in Facebook groups, Instagram and TikTok in different parts of the world we discuss how we are so close to something effecting us as small business owners and self employed photographers / videographers. 

We chat through the Sepia bride story, google gate and discuss some of our own experiences dealing with dissatisfied clients or challenging situations that spill into the public domain.

In this rather ramble-esk  episode, I explain how I found out through a Facebook poll that it no longer really matters if you are a photographer or videographer, you can capture/create/post whatever you like and it is totally acceptable! 

Does this mean there is no line in the sand anymore? Is there no distinction between your role or job at a wedding or on a commercial project? Can you literally just please yourself despite what you were hired to do? I am not sure....but according to a fairly large sized response to a question of our peers here in the UK, this appears to be the case. 

I do think this is a great piece of evidence that attitudes towards hybrid content creation is changing and that everyone has started to shift their mindsets to a different way of doing things. Here is to the future of lines becoming even more blurred when it comes to photography, videography, filmmaking and creating content!

In this episode we are looking at how photography and filmmaking began and how they have evolved over time so that we can make predictions on where the mediums of photo and video are going. 

For a couple of hundred years the progress made in image capture and preservation was relatively slow, but in the past 20 years the industry has changed beyond recognition. The speed at which technology is now changing the way we can view/watch images or videos is fuelling the appetite for visual content in a way that it never has before. 

It is changing the format, mediums and methods that we consume audio visual content. It is influencing artistic and aesthetic styles, and it is changing peoples priorities when it comes to expression and creation. 

Where is the industry going? Are photography and videography still separate mediums/processes? Will they continue to be in the future?

In the first proper episode since we changed the name of the podcast we discuss a little bit of background in regards to hybrid shooting and our journey from offering a single service (photography or videography) to offering both together at weddings or to commercial clients. 

We talk about the experience we have had of adapting to providing both still and moving images, and we go through an overview of how we do this on a typical wedding day. 

This episode is a must listen if you are considering (or have considered) providing both wedding photography and videography together. We give you a great starting point to see how this can work really well at weddings whether you are a team of two or a solo shooter and that the key to success is preparation and setting expectations with your wedding couples. 

So if you are a wedding photographer or a wedding videographer we hope this gives you a great starting point when it comes to learning how to shoot Hybrid at weddings.

Yes, after recording 62 episodes we have decided to change the name of the podcast. You could say this is a terrible decision, but there is a really good reason that you can hear part of in the previous episode (62) and we will be discussing in the next episode when we dive into a full episode of the new format. 

Hybrid photography and videography is growing exponentially. We can see this in all aspects of what we do from the wedding days, to the enquiries and the general business functions like marketing. No longer is video an add on, video is becoming as important as taking stills to both our couples and to us as business owners. 

We want to create a place to discuss things that cover both photo, video and how we will use the tools we have and the skills we can learn to be able to do both of them to a high standard. This is a place to innovate, adapt and a space to do that with no judgement or negativity. This will be a place for you (and us) to grow. We hope you com join us. 

For now, here is an introduction to the new name and we hope you will continue to listen. Thank you!

In this episode of the podcast we are discussing different experiences of real weddings from the past 12 months and how they have either felt like winners, losers or a bit of both.

Obviously we love capturing weddings and we really enjoy the majority of weddings we are invited to capture, but some can be the most perfect days with the perfect couples and can be really fruitful for your business and on a personal level. Other experiences might feel like you came away from the situation losing out in some way and often this can be an unexpected outcome. 

The purpose of this discussion is to share some of our up and down experiences of recent, hopefully you will be able to relate to this in some way. The key takeaway being that you cannot always predict what something will be like or what will happen next and often our expectations of something; either good or bad, can be the thing that creates extreme feelings of positivity and negativity. These can be the feelings that cause the most struggles when running a creative business.

From our experience one of the most difficult things to do is detach yourself from everything around you that influences what you feel you should or need to be doing. You could be doing super well in your business, meeting all of your own goals and needs, but that constant distraction of what everyone else's is doing can be difficult.

So in this episode that's what we are talking about. We want to give you permission to be you, to stay in your lane, own your vibe and most importantly focus on your own happiness and enjoyment in running your own business!

It has been a few weeks since our last episode and it has been a tough year. In this episode we provide you with an honest insight into our lives and what we have been dealing in the hope that it helps you if you are, have been or will in the future have to deal with similar things. 

We think it is really important to acknowledge just what we put into our wedding photography and videography businesses and how sometimes what happens is out of your hands. You are your business, so you need to put yourself first sometimes, you cannot provide the service you want to provide if you are not in the right place. 

Although this is a less structured conversation, we hope it will help you feel like you are not alone in your struggles and give you the insight into how things can go off track no matter how much you try.

Hi everyone,

We hope you’re all well and have had a great week so far?

On this week’s episode we’re highlighting the sometimes very contentious issue of Pricing! 

It can be one of the most difficult things to decide upon when it comes to running your wedding photography/videography business, with lots of contrasting opinions and influences to consider.

But what should be informing your decisions?

What will ensure you continue to be successful?

As the business owner you should have a clear strategy which underpins your pricing, having taken into account the costs of doing business, and you own personal goals for income. 

Most of all, you need to be comfortable with what you charge.

We discuss the changes we have seen over the past six years, and explain the pricing journey we have been on. 

The goal ofcourse is to ensure the continued success and sustainability despite the economical challenges we are all experiencing.

Hi everyone,

We hope you’re all well and have had a great week so far?

On this week’s episode we’re highlighting how important it is to know your numbers!

A way we can all have piece of mind in knowing we have the right amount of income, enquiries and bookings to make this a reality, and to feel empowered to price our services confidently, is to fully understand our numbers!

We discuss starting with calculating your personal living costs, the costs of doing business, and move onto the deductions you’ll need to know about ie: Tax, NI, Pension contributions, how to calculate profit and finish by highlighting the importance of making sure you’re consistently tracking all of your financial and performance data.

Jules prepared a helpful breakdown example of calculating exactly how much revenue your business would need to make if you needed £30,000 to live.

(Figures are created for illustration purposes and using UK Tax & National insurance deductions, as at January 2023).

£30,000 per year to live

£6000 business expenses

£30,000 + 6000 = £36,000

UK tax allowance - £12,570

Therefore, taking the £30,000 per year needed to live and deduct the tax allowance of £12570 = £17,430 

(Now consider 20% tax and around 11% National insurance of £17,430, would be around £5229 in deductions) and added together (£22,659) + 12570 = £35,229

So, your personal expenses to live of £35,229 + £6,000 Business expenses = £41,229 

**Which means that to earn and enjoy £30,000 in real terms each year, your business would need to generate £41,229 as a minimum in REVENUE.

Also, consider that you’ll want to include a buffer into this if you want to be able to save, pay for holidays, unforeseen expenses.

Hi everyone,

We hope you’re all good and 2023 is treating you well so far.

This week we’re talking Money & Taxes.

Around the world the process of submitting your tax return and filing your company accounts is different. So locally, you’ll know what the important dates are for you. Here, in the UK the deadline for submission is 31st January. 

We’re taking today to talk through the importance of understanding how the availability of cash in your business can be helpful in helping you make investments to grow or develop, navigate through troubling times or if you can’t work due to illness. 

We also highlight the compulsory and additional deductions you may have to consider from the revenue you make from weddings, and offer advice on how to manage this and the upkeep of your accounts. 

It’s a bit of a dry topic but one we feel is important for the long term sustainability of your business.

Hi everyone,

We hope you’ve had a nice start to the new year?

Today, we talk Goals! 

Are you thinking about setting yourself any goals for you and for your business for the short, medium, or long term?

How do you set your goals?

How will you monitor them and know whether you will achieve them?

We spend some time reflecting back on the goals we set for our business back in January 2023, (Episode 15) by talking you through whether we managed to achieve them and where we didn’t, assess why this was?

Using the SMART action plan model has been really helpful for us and kept us motivated and accountable. We encourage you to use a format or structure in setting your goals, which works best for you.

If you have any thoughts on settings goals of your own, we’d love to hear about them so please hit us up on the socials at: @weddingmavericks  (https://www.instagram.com/weddingmavericks)

Hi everyone,

Happy New Year everyone! and welcome to our first episode of 2023, and what's more is that it's our 50th episode!

Today we wanted to start the new year with a pause for thought, by reflecting back on some of our previous episodes in which we discussed the real "business" of what we all do. We wanted to highlight that by effectively using the quieter time over the next few months we can all work towards achieving success and sustain our businesses in 2023 and beyond.

We also talk briefly about hybrid shooting, our intention to bring focus to this in future podcast episodes, and our own aspirations to grow this side of our business.

We can't wait to get started on this year's episodes and look forward to continuing to grow our community together.

Take care everyone and have a great week,

Jules & Lyndsey

However you feel about the 'new thing' or what 'everyones doing' it is something we all need to be aware of so we can understand how the current trends will interact with us and our business. 

The new trend might not be your thing, but we still need to be aware of what potential clients might be looking for. Even if that isn't something we want to offer them, it can help us by understanding what we do that is different and how that will help us identify and find our ideal client. 

So in this episode we have a frank chat and a bit of a laugh about the current trends in the world of wedding photography and videography, and of course, what we think might be next. 

Song of the week from musicbed is: Right where I belong by Atlantic Runaway.

Hi everyone,

We hope you’ve enjoyed the festive period, been able to take some time to rest and you’re looking forward to the year ahead. 

We have been in a very fortunate position to receive some excellent reviews from our couples this year and to have used effective marketing strategies to generate lots of enquiries - what we didn’t expect however, was not to convert a single one in around six months!!!

So what did we do?

Listen to us talk about how we tried to address this and make some small adjustments to how we structured our packages to try and convert more leads.

Thank you for listening this week, we hope you’re all safe and well and able to celebrate the end of another year. Thank you for supporting us this year, we’ hope you’ll continue to follow us and contribute to our community.

Sending you our love and best wishes for 2023 Mavericks!
