Back in March, I shared with you Marie and Drew’s minute-long wedding trailer. While I loved that short film, I feel that it barely did their story justice. The two days that Rachel and I spent adventuring with them, hiking, riding go-karts, crazy dancing, and driving all over Texas, are some of our favorite wedding filmmaking memories.
Their full film shows these two days in fuller clarity and detail that a couple unique and quirky as these two deserve. We felt like we knew Marie and Drew as good friends after spending these two days with them, and I hope that by the end of their film you feel the same.
Getting married on your own terms? Rachel and I would love to film it. Please get it touch.

I was a guest on the Be Creative Podcast!
A few weeks ago, Caleb Peavy of the Be Creative Podcast asked me to be on and chat with him all about (what else?) being creative! I have been a guest on a couple of others too, including Just Fix It In Post and the Wedding Film Academy podcast. Before I was on, I did some research and saw that most of his podcasts were going 20-30 minutes in length. “No problem,” I thought, “Mine will be right in there at the average length of 25 minutes.” Welp, we talked for 53 minutes, so I hope you guys enjoy it. Caleb and I touched on how I got into filmmaking, the origin of my website name, and then we went super deep about a lot of my creative insecurities and how I fight them off, which I also wrote up as how to stay creative as a filmmaker. Also, I found out that Seth Godin was going to be on the podcast a week after me so I can add “On the same podcast (but not at the same time) as Seth Godin,” which is easily one of my highest accomplishments now.
