In this episode of Yes to I Do, host Lydia Wakefield is joined by Carl from Ever Thine Film & Photography, an award-winning husband-and-wife team with over 12 years of experience in wedding photography and videography. Carl shares their journey into the wedding industry, their candid and documentary-style approach, and the importance of capturing the most meaningful moments. If you’re looking for expert insight into wedding photography and videography, this episode is a must-listen!

Key Takeaways

Ever Thine was founded after Carl and his wife experienced disappointing wedding videography at their own wedding, inspiring them to create something better.

Their approach blends traditional posed photography with natural, documentary-style shots to capture genuine emotions.

Couples now opt for fewer, more meaningful group shots to enjoy more of their wedding day.

Carl explains why overcast days can be perfect for photos and how golden hour creates stunning, romantic images.

Key moments like the grandparent shot, confetti toss, first kiss, and candid reactions during speeches are absolute essentials.

Best Moments

“We love capturing those little treasured moments that happen naturally throughout the day.”

“Your photographer is with you all day, make sure you actually like them!”

“Golden hour light transforms wedding photos, it's one of our favourite times to shoot.”
