  • Game changer

    Listening to this podcast has really shown me how much I limit myself to branch out of my very small market. Taylor and Kelley are easy to listen to, and have some great episodes.

  • An incredible resource!!

    I can say, in all truth, this is the first podcast I started listening to that I ended up going to the beginning and listening to every episode. There are so many golden nuggets in every episode. I’m a photographer but I’ve learned so many things that I can utilize in my own business. Highly recommended!!

  • Wanted to love this :/

    I love a good podcast, especially when it has to do with the wedding industry… however after listening to about 10 episode, I found this podcast really fluffy. The only thing I actually learned was to “dress to impress”. Most of their content just promotes their paid mastermind class, what you could learn… Not worth your time.

  • Obsessed with this podcast!

    Finally found some influential videographers that I connect with! Being a mom in this industry can feel very isolating & hard to grow a business. These two motivate me to keep going and give such amazing educational content to help me scale my business! 10/10 would recommend if you want receive all and any advice to enter the premium or luxury market of weddings!
