The 3 Standards Every Wedding Couple Needs | Hourglass Ep. 6

Most photographers won't have this conversation with you — but it's the one that decides whether your wedding photos and film tell the love story you actually dreamed of. 14 years. 1,000+ weddings. Here's what Katie and I have learned. PREMIERES TODAY at 3PM CT In this episode: • The Three Standards framework — and why Standard Three is the one nobody talks about • What your wedding day actually looks like from behind the lens, and why almost none of it is in your control (or ours) • Why the best frames we'll ever capture of you have nothing to do with posing — and everything to do with how present you are with each other • Valerie & Zavior at Venue 5126 in Oswego, IL — rain all morning, a forgotten ring exchange, rebellious dress straps, and a reimagined sparkler send-off • How a couple's willingness to laugh, roll with it, and trust the process turned a chaotic day into an extraordinary love story • The lesson every couple should hear before their wedding day — and what you'll actually remember ten years from now You don't have to like me. You don't have to love me. But what you can always expect is extraordinary effort and extraordinary work. New episodes Monday through Thursday. When the sand runs out, we're done.
