No matter how you slice it, wedding photography is a fancy business. On this week's podcast, we take that fancy up a notch in a conversation about luxury wedding photography with James Christianson and Otto Schulze. These former competitors took a giant leap to reinvent themselves as the collaborative partnership James x Schulze, while also adapting their sales strategy to a marketplace where the driving force is want rather than means. Listen in as they describe how they balanced economic risk with the creative freedom to chase small moments and beautiful light. You'll also gain insight into how a luxury client's buying psychology differs from the norm, and the essential importance of taking a client-first approach to projects. “Confidence is the currency of the successful,” explains Christianson about the necessary shift in mindset. “If you can bring confidence in who you are and what your skills are—whether that's with a camera, or skills with people, or both—that will take you a long way in being able to move through any room.” Guests: James Christianson and Otto Schulze Top shot © James x Schulze Episode Timeline 2:55: The logistics of and locations for the luxury wedding photography market. 6:38: Balancing the economics of a collaborative business with the creative freedom and flow of chasing small moments and beautiful light. 10:42: Shaking the middle-class sales mentality and adapting to the buying psychology of luxury clients. 14:45: Put your client first by asking open-ended questions and taking a genuine interest in connecting to best identify their wants. 17:56: The logistics of working with wedding planners in the high-end photography market. 21:40: Destination weddings in a post-COVID world, and the luxury client as a recession proof market for wedding photography. 26:10: James X Shulze's go-to camera gear—from the medium format FUJIFILM GFX to the Leica Q—yet always being mindful of the special atmosphere of the venue. 31:27: Episode break 32:32: Introducing James X Schulze's education brand Sage. Tap into the mindset and confidence needed to cultivate luxury wedding photography clients. 37:14: Distinguishing between premium and luxury wedding clients, and the relative budgets for each 40:10: Develop the story the client wants to tell with their wedding, rather than approaching the wedding as just a photo shoot. 45:14: James and Otto's approach to education involves more than great photographs. Equally important is being a better business owner, and consistency in putting in the work. Guest Bios: James Christianson started his career as an educator and entrepreneur. He has more than 20 years of photography experience under his belt combined with a business and education background that brings a distinctively clear voice to his work. Otto Schulze traveled the globe as a documentary photographer, spending the past 20 years in pursuit of the “decisive moment.” His ability to see outside the box makes him an inspirational and visionary imagemaker and educator. Working together, James x Schulze have achieved world-class brand recognition as luxury wedding photographers, combining editorial, documentary, and fine-art styles. Named as one of the world's top 50 wedding photographers by Harpers Bazaar, they are hyper-focused on communicating each client's unique story through a final portfolio of unparalleled images. Most recently, they launched the online education platform Sage, and the online course “The Business of Luxury Weddings” to inspire other wedding professionals seeking to take their business to the next level.

From the engagement ring to your wedding bands, choosing your wedding rings come with a lot of pressure. After all, the ring on your finger is the most obvious symbol of your marriage. With engagement season just around the corner, what better time to chat about all things wedding rings – from choosing (or making!) one, to how to propose with one. Today we are joined by Allison Ullmer the founder of RINGED to talk about all things engagement and wedding rings. Allison is a 20+-year jeweler, devoted fine artist, and experienced metalsmithing professor, who believes everyone should have access to amazing, personal jewelry design. Allison has created her business around two convictions: She loudly and exuberantly celebrates all love and all bodies and that neither jewelry nor style have a gender. She believes that wedding rings are more than objects; they are a sign of a long and happy marriage filled with meaningful experiences.

This is a recap episode of my very first episode here in Key West talking about Fantasy Fest. I wanted to release this episode for the last weekend of Fantasy Fest, so you all could learn more about this week long party that happens every year in Key West! In our first episode, Mark Baratto speaks with Nadene Grossman Orr who handles all of the planning for Fantasy Fest, the Annual Key West Songwriters Festival, and many more events through her company We've Got The Keys. We go deep into why she moved to Key West and what she loves about living and working here, and some of her favorite spots in town to eat drink and be merry. MORE ON NADENE Nadene arrived in Key West Florida in 1991 just after Graduation from SUNY Geneseo. Looking back on her introduction to Island Life – she established a strong foundation with the best Key West jobs … Cocktail Server, Crew on the Catamarans, and Concierge! The 3 C's! She learned the Island inside and out and made lasting friendships that grew into the professional relationships she has today with so many local business owners and industry professionals. So in love with the Island Lifestyle - Nadene turned her passion into Business in 2004 - establishing We've Got the Keys - Wedding & Event Planners for the Florida Keys. We Coordinated nearly 800 Destination Weddings up until December 2015 when we changed our focus to Corporate Events, Destination Management and Producing City-Wide Festivals & Events. With an eye for detail, Nadene's focus is on designing creative Incentive Travel programs for our corporate clients, introducing visitors to uniquely Key West experiences, customized tours, one of a kind adventures and culinary delights – Nadene & her Team challenge themselves daily to delight, impress and inspire our guests! Nadene is thrilled to be a producer for the Annual Key West Songwriters Festival – founded in 1994 - this event is the largest of its kind - bringing more than 175 Performing Singer-Songwriters to Key West each year to perform their original music on Key West's intimate stages - including beaches, bars, theaters and boats! One of the founding producers of the Annual Key West Film Festival, Nadene and her team at We've got the Keys helped to establish this new festival for Key West – founded in 2012 we worked with the Film Festival for its first Three Years. With a deep sense of Community involvement – Supporting local events and non-profit organizations over the years has been an integral part of our work. In November 2015 Nadene proudly accepted the role of Event Director for AIDS Help Inc. – coordinating their annual local events, including Taste of Key West, Vintners Dinner, Tree of Hope, & The Coronation for King & Queen of Fantasy Fest. January 2017 Nadene was selected to become the new Director of FANTASY FEST! The We've got the Keys Team took on their Biggest EVENT to date!

In this quick solo episode, I give some tips and ideas of events you can host during your long weekend to entertain your guests (and yourselves!). Having a destination wedding means the guest list is much smaller and more intimate so you may have some leeway with your budget to be able to host a few extra events that you wouldn't usually if local. Let me know of any other ideas of events you have been to or are planning to have. Link to WOVE Link to Revelry www.leonamorelock.com www.instagram.com/leonamorelock www.pinterest.com/leonamorelock

The Junkies wrap up the Winona Ryder 101 lessons with 2018's Destination Wedding, which may or may not be an actual movie. Winona teams up with Keanu Reeves (who may or may not be her actual husband) for the fourth time in this awkward and talky film oddity. While not the worst Winona movie they've had to watch (that would be Autumn in New York), Destination Wedding was still challenging for Nicole, who needed a break from the constant chatter, and Hayley, who felt the sex scene in this movie went too far in the wrong direction in trying not to be overly romantic. Shauna liked the film (not the sex scene) just fine, though. The Junkies talk about attending (or having) a destination wedding, weird family dynamics, and wonder how Winona could simultaneously be awesome in Stranger Things and so very, well, strange in this movie.Links: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pop-culture-junkie/id1536737728 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7k2pUxzNDBXNCHzFM7EL8W Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/popculturejunkiepodcast/Website: www.popculturejunkie.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/PopCultureJunkiePodcast Twitter: www.twitter.com/PopJunkies Instagram: www.instagram.com/pop.culturejunkies Email: junkies@popculturejunkie.com Hayley on Instagram: www.instagram.com/thirtynerdythriving Nicole on Instagram: www.instagram.com/nicole_eldridge Nicole on Twitter: www.twitter.com/naeldridge14 Nicole on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@nicole_eldridge Shauna on Twitter: www.twitter.com/shaunatrinidad Shauna on Instagram: www.instagram.com/shaunatrinidad Shauna on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@shaunatrinidad
