Let's keep the tips growing below! Drop some sage advice for all those beginners out there! ⬇

[@WaywardNorth]

Tip #11 - Lean into the art of imperfect filmmaking. Weddings aren't perfect, Life isn't Perfect, it's quite Imperfect. Lean capturing the essence of real life through the imperfections to unearth a genuine and pure reflection of the couples wedding day.

Great tips!

[@angienuthead]

Love this! (Also love the clip of cheasting the pullups)

[@WaywardNorth]

Haha glad someone caught that 😆

[@m.valdivia8048]

The audio is great but what if you only have two wireless mics like the rode go 2 and the bride won't want a mic on her dress?

[@WaywardNorth]

In this case, you use what you have. Ive filmed several weddings wher the Bride wasnt mic'd and still managed to turn out a great film from it. As long as the groom is Mic'd during the ceremony and even during Portraits you can capture some really gold moments.
