The next chapter

how to film weddings

In 2018, wedding filmmakers John Bunn and Nick Miller asked a simple question: “What if filmmakers had a place to learn the art and business of weddings?” What started as a podcast quickly became a real community where like minded creatives can not only grow as artists but build relationship with others. Over time, HTFW became the world’s leading education platform for wedding filmmakers.

For 13 years I’ve been filming weddings in small towns, chasing good stories, making tons of mistakes, and sharing my real experience on Youtube along the way. 

I've learned one simple truth in my years of filming weddings for a living. We all need community. A place to learn, connect, vent, unwind, feel inspired, a place that feels like Home.

So, I’m continuing the conversation with How To Film Weddings, helping like-minded filmmakers raise the standard, together.
