The Becky Sessions

Happy first birthday to The Becky Sessions

We’ve officially hit one year of The Becky Sessions 🎉 (recorded, of course, the night before it needed to go out… classic). This episode is a proper catch-up — from finishing final edits and heading into wedding season, to the reality of juggling filming, editing, and life in between. We chat about burnout, whether to actually take a break (or just keep going), and how editing always seems to slow down when you’re busiest shooting. We also get into the pressure of social media — feeling like you should be posting constantly, capturing everything, and keeping up with what everyone else is doing… and what happens when you just decide not to. There’s talk of trends (hello black & white edits 👀), trying new things like camcorders, simplifying packages, and why comparing yourself to others can completely derail your mindset. Plus: a little rant about cold emails, some honest thoughts on the pressure of the job, and a reminder that this industry is hard — but also pretty brilliant. As always, it’s honest, slightly chaotic, and exactly the kind of conversation we’d be having off-mic anyway.

Wing’s Wins! We welcome the wonderful Adam Wing to the pod!

This week, we’re joined by our first ever male guest, Adam Wing, and we cover a bit of everything. From what it’s really like experiencing your own wedding as a supplier, to how that changes the way you film, edit, and communicate with couples. We dive into the reality of running a wedding business alongside family life, navigating school runs, late-night edits, weekend guilt, and the never-ending to-do list. Adam shares honestly about being a dad in the industry, the pressure of providing, and why work-life balance isn’t always what it seems. We also chat about: * Why replying to enquiries quickly actually matters * The emotional rollercoaster of bookings (and ghosting!) * Social media pressure and being “known” in the industry * Male vs female perspectives in weddings and why both matter Check out Adam's work at https://adamwingfilms.com/ [https://adamwingfilms.com/]  His online training course and other educational products are available at https://adamwingfilms.com/education [https://adamwingfilms.com/education] Find us on instagram @thebeckysessions The Becky Sessions are @thompsonweddingfilms and @becky_kinross_videographer https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk [https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk] + https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/ [https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/] Thank you to Amy Moore for the music https://www.amymooremusic.com [https://www.amymooremusic.com]

Busy Season Is Coming (Send Snacks)

This week, we’re getting real about the juggle. From overflowing edit schedules and family life to the pressure of “doing it all,” we’re chatting honestly about why we’ve made the decision to go bi-weekly—and why that’s actually a good thing. We dive into the behind-the-scenes of wedding videography life right now: overdue edits, AI scheduling hacks (hello Claude 👀), and the constant battle between productivity and burnout. Plus, we share insights from real brides, thoughts on awards and wedding fairs, and why clear communication in your business matters more than you think. There’s also a bit of everything else you’d expect from us—holiday plans, screen time struggles, creative ruts, trying new things, and a reminder that your work is good, even when comparison creeps in. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, behind, or like you’re spinning too many plates—this one’s for you. ✨ Plus: wins of the week, community shoutouts, and a questionable joke to finish, of course.

That Wedding Videographer Summit - The Debrief

In this episode, the Beckys catch up after Becky K smashes her talk at the 'That Wedding Videographer Summit.' We’re chatting all about the wedding summit experience — from pre-talk nerves, caffeine overload and audience tears. We get into what it really feels like to put yourself out there creatively, the power of community in the wedding industry, and why “relatable” content matters more than ever. We also talk Super 8, making your work feel more you, and how small, achievable changes can spark big creative shifts. Plus, the usual: honest chats about juggling business and mum life, wedding industry realities, and a few completely off-topic tangents (including Pokémon cards and rogue audio moments you definitely can’t include in films). If you’ve ever felt imposter syndrome, thought about pushing yourself creatively, or just needed a reminder that you’re not doing this alone — this one’s for you.   Get your tickets for TWVP Summit 2027 here: https://twvp.co.uk/store/ [https://twvp.co.uk/store/p/twvs27-early-bird] Find us on instagram @thebeckysessions The Becky Sessions are @thompsonweddingfilms and @becky_kinross_videographer https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk [https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk] + https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/ [https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/] Thank you to Amy Moore for the music https://www.amymooremusic.com [https://www.amymooremusic.com]

Wedding Season: Activated

This week, we’re talking about that back-to-wedding-season feeling - excitement, nerves, and the panic of “where is everything?!” after time away. One of us heads back to a full-on 150 person wedding (with a drone that almost didn’t cooperate), while also navigating the emotional rollercoaster of leaving a baby for the longest time yet. We chat about: – The reality of returning to weddings after time off – Mum guilt, pumping in car parks & surviving long days – Creating meaningful experiences for couples vs just “getting the shot” – Booking highs, dry spells, and shifting enquiry trends – The mental load of wedding season (and knowing when enough is enough) Plus: “win of the week,” a questionable joke of the week, and a reminder of why we actually love this job in the first place.   Find us on instagram @thebeckysessions The Becky Sessions are @thompsonweddingfilms and @becky_kinross_videographer https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk [https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk] + https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/ [https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.uk/] Thank you to Amy Moore for the music https://www.amymooremusic.com [https://www.amymooremusic.com]
