No one does it like you

so let's lean into that

We believe there’s room at the table for everyone, especially when you confidently own your unique approach to wedding filmmaking. But sometimes, you need a partner to help you see your own strengths and give you direction to make the next best step.

You want to be the absolute best at what you do.

Sure, you want your business to grow, and you’d like to become a leader in the industry. But more than anything, you want your craft to be really, really good.

When we first started our wedding film-making journey, we never imagined that it would take us to where we are today.

We’ve turned our passion into a sustainable business, and we love getting to share our experiences with you.

Personally, after learning under these two, I’ve noticed a change in the way that I see the wedding world. I’m more confident, knowledgeable, and feel like I have friends to support me in my next endeavors. A good coach is a mentor and a friend, and these two do a beautiful job at understanding this balance.

"...Jay's been my go-to guru..."

Over the years, I've had some awesome coaching sessions with Jay that really opened my eyes to the ins and outs of the wedding industry, helping me navigate the world of gear and sorting out all those pesky editing questions I had swirling in my head.

Color grading used to be my Achilles' heel, but thanks to Jay's tips and tricks, I've seen a world of improvement. What I love most about Jay is his genuine passion for helping folks out—it's like he's on a mission to boost everyone around him. If you're thinking about growing your business, trust me, jumping into coaching calls or snagging some mentorship with Jay is the way to go. It's been a game-changer for me!

"I had one of the best mentorship experiences ever, with Jay."

I can tell from our call that he carefully went through everything I sent him (my films and questions/topics). He was prepared with answers and examples from his own films to answer my questions... make every minute of our call so efficient..

It really showed how much care he puts into the mentorship calls. Because of how down to earth and relaxed our call was, I felt super comfortable asking questions. We talked about everything from story building to consultation calls and everything was answered in incredible detail. I found everything in our call so helpful, it actually made me excited to go ahead and start editing again... crazy! Can't wait to schedule another call with them. The best! 1000% recommend!!

"I mentored with Jay and Mack to explain nuances of the industry that I couldn’t find ANYWHERE ELSE."

Not only were they straightforward, but they didn’t make me feel like they were gatekeepers of information. 

Steven Dorn // Steven Dorn Films

Since our mentorship, I feel like we continue to learn from them. It’s been an ongoing process and they are great at providing substantial value for the time you have with them. 

From our initial mentorship to now, I’ve seen their perspective and insight transcend as I’ve grown as a filmmaker. I’ve avoided a lot of hurdles through advice and tactics that I learned from them.

We swing the door wide open and love celebrating you for all that you are, but let’s spell this out: we embrace your gender expression, skin color, sexuality, and body image. When we say all are welcome, we really do mean it.
