Frame rate mindset
What frame rate is everyone shooting? Are you switching throughout the day for certain moments or are you sticking to 60fps all day for flexibility in post? What’s your thinking behind it? Do you prefer that natural motion blur at 24fps or do your clients not even notice.

Shooting for the edit will help you decide when and where to change your frame rates. Personally, when I first started I did 60 all day and as I became more comfortable and wanted to take more risks I switched to 24. Now it’s a mix of 24,60,120. Usually any type of dramatic push ins or detail shots I shoot in 60. Dramatic moments 120 everything else 24
To gimbal or not to gimbal
Who is can't live without their gimbal? Who refuses anything but handheld? Tripods or Tri-don'ts? "tHeRe'S a PuRpOsE fOr EvErYtHiNg" yea, yea, yea, but what's your preferred way to shoot a wedding? My primary camera does not have IBIS, so I've only ever used it on a gimbal, but I'm falling more in love with the handheld look. Been thinking about making the switch and how I can practice a "steadier" hand.

I prefer handheld. It’s more run and gun and more creative angles.

Yeah of course. But I had that issue mostly when my rig wasn’t balanced. Now that it’s center balanced and I’ve had more practice with it it’s all good. You kind of want to use the motion into your story telling anyway. I try to keep warp stabilizer around 5-15% depending on what it looks like or just still frames
All right, I'm curious...
Who are my focus pullers and who are my AFers? IYKYK.

Social Media Posts
How do you find consistency in social media posting without content fatigue?? The obvious answer is ā€œjust do itā€ but you have to your audience in mind. I have the most trouble even though we could easily choose clips. But I only want bangers. Help.
LUTS & Color Grading
If anyone has some of their favorite LUTs or color grading tools they’re willing to share, I’d greatly appreciate it!! 🫶 (not looking to cop anyone’s style but just improve upon mine!)
