S1 E8: Does social media make Wedding planning easier or harder?

S1:E12 - FIGHTING TALK! | Photographers vs Videographers

Welcome back to Episode 12 of the Shooters Wedding Podcast. This week Toby somehow manages to lose the game and disappear after the intro, leaving Chris and Jon to go head-to-head in the ultimate wedding industry showdown: TOG vs VOG. Photographers and videographers work alongside each other every weekend, but do we actually see weddings the same way? In this episode we debate some of the biggest topics in the industry: 📸 Is photography easier than videography? 🎥 Is wedding videography still viewed as a luxury? 📱 Are photographers too obsessed with Instagram? 🎬 Do videographers spend too much time chasing cinematic shots? 🚁 Are drone shots overrated? 📷 Is documentary photography genuine storytelling or just an excuse to do less? We also end up talking about content creators, film photography, singing waiters, wedding trends, and for reasons nobody can fully explain… Pogs. Plus, Agony Uncles returns with another batch of wedding industry dilemmas, including a makeup artist with a very specific complaint, a groom refusing to include someone in the group photos, and a bride questioning her fiancé’s choice of best man. Whether you’re Team Tog or Team Vog, there’s plenty to argue about in this one. Thanks for listening.
