Join Pete, Laura, Liam, and Bee for a special "postcard" episode, recorded live from next to their tents during their wholesome (and feral) camping holiday! Swapping the studio for a field, the team gets real about the highs and lows of the creative life in the middle of a busy August.In this episode, we chat about our recent travels, from a stunning but stormy cruise through the Norwegian fjords to an epic 14-hour drive to the Isle of Skye for a single elopement. We then dive into some all-too-relatable industry frustrations, including the awkward dance of dealing with difficult wedding bands and a deep dive into the dos, don'ts, and disasters of hiring second shooters.The conversation then takes a serious and personal turn as Liam shares the full, cautionary story of being scammed out of £4,500 by a fake marketing "expert." It’s an open and honest account of how easily it can happen and the emotional toll it takes, serving as a must-listen for any freelancer or small business owner. We wrap it all up by sharing the simple joys that have made our trip unforgettable, from barbecues to a magical night watching shooting stars.Timestamps00:00 - Intro00:31 - A Postcard from a Field: The Feral Camping Holiday Begins03:32 - The Pre-Holiday Work Grind05:02 - Cruising and Seasickness in Norway07:52 - A 14-Hour Drive for a 3-Hour Elopement11:03 - The Importance of Taking a Break in Peak Season12:55 - Industry Rant: When Wedding Bands Are "Cheeky F*cks"18:23 - Industry Deep Dive: The Woes of a Bad Second Shooter28:26 - The Full Story of a £4,500 Scam43:50 - Highs & Lows of the Week49:26 - Outro: Time for a BarbecueGet a free 14 day trial of Musicbed: https://www.musicbed.com/invite/935CyLawson Film School: https://www.lawsonfilms.co.uk/lawson-film-schoolSay hi on Instagram @ourcreativecommuneliamandbee.comlawsonfilms.co.uklawsonphotography.co.uk#weddingphotography #weddingvideography #filmphotography #creativepodcast #weddingindustry #ourcreativecommune Hosted on Acast.
