In today’s world, trying to get married has become... a hot mess. So, to all the COVID brides to have been, grooms and wedding professionals: you’re not alone. Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry. Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. It has been a tough year for wedding photography team Geoff and Lyndsi, but they won’t tell you that. Aside from raising a growing toddler with one more kiddo on the way and losing months of income due to COVID, this husband and wife duo prefer to focus on the silver linings and helping their clients navigate the pandemic as they’ve had to reschedule, scale back and even cancel their weddings. And while Lyndsi and Geoff are looking forward to a time when things get back to normal, they say they hope everyone’s new priorities stick and that intimacy and authenticity become staples in the wedding industry.  Jump straight into: (02:42) - How Lyndsi and Geoff met - “The romantic version is we were both ocean lifeguards, or we were at the time, so the romantic version is that we met on the beach. Very Baywatch.” (03:49) - About their first date and early dating days - “Our first date was actually scuba diving. Yeah, she took me down pretty deep.” (07:45) - On Geoff starting to shoot weddings after finishing college - “It's so funny to me to think about like a young 20 year old male shooting weddings. Yeah. I mean, I really didn't have any idea what I was doing.” (20:15) - What it was like for the couple when COVID hit - “Our first postponement was April 10th, and it's crazy to think back on that time, because it was just, it was so unknown and so scary and people just, no one had any idea what the heck was going on. And it was just bad news after bad news, after like tough conversation after tough conversation. It was just, it was wild. It was a wild time.” (33:01) - How it felt helping their clients - “You're just seeing all these weddings postpone. I have to admit it kind of takes the wind out of your sails.” (36:50) - Focusing on the positives - “A big silver lining of this year: It has been this forced balance. And I think that that is such a transition, going from being like doing life at warp speed.” (40:42) - How Geoff and Lyndsi want to see the wedding industry change in the future - “The intimacy of not having to worry about all these extra things and all these extra people, you know, there's just something really special about that. I've never heard anyone say they wish they had a bigger wedding.” Resources Book with https://www.geoffandlyndsi.com/ (Geoff & Lyndsi Photography) Follow https://www.instagram.com/geoffandlyndsi/ (Geoff & Lyndsi Photography) on Instagram  Learn more about https://www.newsweek.com/mean-girls-day-october-3-when-did-mean-girls-day-start-aaron-samuels-1462898 (Mean Girls Day) See https://www.uniquefloraldesigns.com/ (Unique Floral Designs) for yourselves!

Would you live in a 39-inch trailer? Check out photos and video of the trailer at heathandalyssa.com/hitch-hotel In March of 2014 while driving down the road, Geoff had an idea and immediately called his friend Gil. How could they build a collapsible (but stable), a lightweight (but sturdy) trailer for camping and mountain biking? But bringing a dream this big (or this little, really) to reality would take time. They had four things they need to do to get the first Hitch Hotel created: Develop prototypes Establish funding Patent their invention Find a manufacturer This process has taken seven years, but the amount of time and capital it's taken hasn't slowed Gil and Geoff down. Like everyone, they have bad days, but every morning they wake up excited to finally bring this product to market. What Heath and the guys cover in this episode: How Gil analyzed the opportunity in the 60-billion-dollar camping industry How Geoff built the first prototype on his own (and fixed it when he learned that he did it wrong) When they finally could introduce the product to consumers Funding their development on Kickstarter How many years it took to find a manufacturer When you can expect to see a Hitch Hotel on the road --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rve/message

Google is one of the best channels for growth. But, it's also an ultra-competitive channel, one where you're competing with every other brand. It's hard to get a competitive edge. Sometimes to get that edge, we forget to pay attention to the fundamentals. For Google, that means the technical elements of SEO. In this episode of the GrowthTLDR, we talk to Geoff Atkinson, who is the CEO and founder of Huckabuy, a software company that makes it easier for Google to crawl large websites. On this episode of the GrowthTLDR, we cover: - The story behind Huckabuy, and how Geoff realized the importance of technical SEO after increasing revenue from $0 to $300 million at Overstock from organic search. - How Geoff helps large enterprise companies dramatically grow their search traffic by helping them with page speed, structured data, and dynamic rendering. - What Geoff did to sell into large brands like SAP, Concur, Salesforce even though Huckabuy is a company of 14 employees.

Happy Father’s Day to all the Father’s out there, especially to my Dad – who, along with my mum, is traveling overseas. I’m sure you’re having a great time and I look forward to catching up when you both get back. To celebrate Father’s Day, I wanted to catch up with someone who was raised in Musical Theatre, performed on stage with his Dad, and is now a father himself with children who also involved in the performing arts. Today I am catching up with Geoff Stone. We were both born and raised at The Regals Musical Society. Just like my parents, Geoff’s parents met through Community Theatre and they passed their love of theatre on to the next generation. Geoff and I spoke about the Top 5 father roles in musical theatre. Community Theatre really is a magical place. Even though I no longer go to rehearsals in my pajamas and dressing gown and sleep under the chairs – I still find it as magical as ever. This episode is dedicated to all the fathers out there. Whether they are looking down from above or still with us – our Fathers are always close in our hearts. FANTASTIX BITS IN THE INTERVIEW Geoff’s earliest musical memory The magic of growing up in the rehearsal room Geoff and Paul reminisce about how wonderful it was to share the stage with their dads The romantic story of how Paul’s parents met Geoff’s first show age 7 Some community theatre ‘royalty’ name drops Geoff’s transition from romantic lead to father roles Which show did we all lose weight during and get super fit? Geoff’s love of community theatre premieres Warning Geoff uses the J word! How Geoff has passed the “bug” down to his own son’s just like his own father did for him Which father role is on Geoff’s “one-day” list? Which soundtrack made Geoff want the role?

How does Geoff think about the balance between mission and vision but then also being realistic about when something is not working? When do you quit? Why is the decision internal not external? What is the most important perspective any investor can give a founder? 5.)

LISTEN HERE: iTUNES | OVERCAST Today’s guest is Geoff Manaugh, who explores the intersection of architecture, technology, and landscapes. As a professor, he’s taught classes in both the United States and in Australia on topics such as blackouts, the future of cinema, geo-engineering, and the possibility of a San Andreas fault national park. In the episode, we talk about how the geography of Los Angeles influences bank heists, the new subterranean structures in Singapore and Hong Kong, caves, and how technology is changing architecture. This conversation will have you exploring new ideas, underground tunnels, sneaking through subway systems, and using blueprints to escape a prison. You can find Geoff online at his blog, BLDGBLOG. “All of the buildings that we interact with every day tend to be completely overlooked and treated as something that isn’t even worth discussing, and yet that’s where we spend most of our lives.” “The real world is so much more interesting than people think it is. There’s no reason to be bored — the world is cooler and more futuristic than you might think.” Links: Find Geoff online: Website Linkedin His book’s site Mentioned in the show: Heat film [8:00] Gangs of New York film [8:37] Prison Break show [19:35] Books mentioned: A Burglar’s Guide to the City [0:49] People mentioned: Geoff Manaugh Michael Mann [8:00] Show Topics 1:53 - Introduction to Geoff and discussion on how he got into the architectural field. 3:15 - Diving into anthropology, ancient civilizations, and Geoff’s interest in both ancient structures and architecture. 5:10 - Some discussion on our current architecture and some speculation on us often being surrounded by a built environment. “All of the buildings that we interact with every day tend to be completely overlooked and treated as something that isn’t even worth discussing, and yet that’s where we spend most of our lives.” 7:50 - Discussing how the infrastructure and landscape of a city influence heists and crime. How our environment is much less passive than we think, and how it actively plays a role in influencing the way that we think and what we do. 11:12 - Figuring out how police view a city, taking advantage of various get-away routes, and the grey-areas often found in get-away routes. 12:55 - How burglars think differently about underground structures.

Also, how Singapore has begun to excavate outwards beneath the ocean for storage and other uses, architects designing artificial caves, Hong Kong’s future plans with underground infrastructures, and the powerful sense of awe that we can attain from architecture. 41:54 - Further discussion on the many things that we see, but do not consciously appreciate or really notice. Also, a bit of talk on the mysterious places left behind due to architecture evolving. 43:55 - The future of cities and architecture, and what Geoff is most excited about within these fields.
