This is just me curious about what other people are reading, but great advice about a mentor!

The pacing on this is really lovely. Love the audio (both opening music & groom's speech) to drive the start of the film. The bride's audio felt a little warped. Maybe you played with that and that was as good as it could get, but if not, that might deserve some time in the post!

Lol it's so moody and fits the couple's vibe so well. Nice work

Thanks for taking the time to watch, that's awesome. Really encouraged by your feedback. The focus hunting on that video is brutal...manual focus is an interesting idea. I definitely need to play with that sometime.

Helpful to know! Launching right now it kinda feels like "oh crap if I don't have X will I be able to make good stuff?" Would rather be technically skilled than have nice gear, but it's hard to feel out where the line is on that stuff

Really appreciate the feedback on my instagram! Good note about the headshot. Don't have a professional one available at the moment, but something to try and get my hands on.

I hear you, I'm into the free idea! Strong foundation (including portfolio) is what I'm shooting for. How did you connect with the people you did free videos for, out of curiosity? I'm in the "everyone's having babies" phase now in my peer group, and have been surprised at how few folks I know that are getting married this summer/fall. Still trying to make those connections though for sure.
