Just started wedding videography, and doing my third wedding on Friday. This is so motivating and helpful!

Not commeting often, but this time I have to. Thank for this one. This content is 100% useful, no empty words and "fun". This is something that brings value. I wish you make more videos, Parker. Always wonder what's next and always feelin' well educated. Great job! Thanks.

I've been a female videographer/editor for almost 4 years, and I'm 22. I've done 4 races of weddings, music videos, events corporates and many more. I believe what she says is right, just keep doing what you're doing. You will improve gradually. Thank you, such an inspiring video.

In case anyone was too lazy to calculate. Thats roughly $120, 000 a year.

I’m a female Videographer and I love this! I shoot weddings as well and it’s definitely possible. I also teach on video-marketing and I’m well respected! Go Keysha!!!!

[Michael-jwnf]

I am a male and i still find this inspiring . I honestly do want to see more variety in this industry. Great job once again parker

The way she handles that glidecam, so smooth and so steady! I never really could understand how they work but definitely fascinated.

I filmed weddings for two years and it was an amazing experience. People don’t understand the work involved. I give this woman ultimate respect!

@8:49 "Compare yourself to who you were yesterday." Thank you both for the good word/good reminder today, to stop comparing myself​ to others, rather, to build upon and grow from what I have already done.

Wow, fair play to her, she's very dedicated to her work. The toughest when doing weddings is not your technical skills but ability to work with people, making them comfortable. To shoot photo or video is piece of cake then.

[FrederickDunn]

You hit on many great points here, and having a female videographer working alongside a male photographer is a win-win as a creative partnership. I would definitely take on an up and coming videographer. I've turned down a lot of work because I didn't have a dependable video assistant for that second camera. Do you like the glide-cam over the Ronin stabilizers? We use the Ronin M and it's cumbersome, what about the new single post Ronin units? Wouldn't she be better off with that? Great advantage that she's only doing 4 hours where my regular wedding day is more like 7 or 8 hours and it is certainly a test of stamina at times. Thanks again and thumbs UP, I wish her all the best!

This is not only encouraging for women, but also for small-framed, skinny-armed guys! :-)

Consider me fascinated. My gut reaction when thinking about my experience managing clients is this does not seem possible unless she books without consultations and holds no pre-wedding meetings. If people are booking her over email and she is using a good CRM that automates billing, contracts and as much communication as possible, AND her videos are basically montage music videos like the one that was shown then 80 is feasible and I commend the minimalist approach to her business. I am a photographer mainly. I shot 52 weddings last year (20 of which I also provided video via a team of shooters I brought with me). I don't know how I survived with the addition of 35 engagements, consultation meetings, pre-wedding meetings and endless phone calls and emails. Perhaps she has designed a brilliant business that is minimal in overhead and admin and high in profit. I feel like I am doing it wrong after watching this video. Food for thought and I appreciate you making it.

Females definitely excel at wedding filmmaking. My girlfriend second shoots for me at weddings and even though she knows very little about the technical side of filmmaking, she still manages to direct the couple and get shots that I wouldn't even have thought of. Always makes me wonder why you see so many female photogs and very few filmmakers.

[JoshRedfearn]

You killed it. Kaylor great job! And thank you so much for showing her actual footage.

[AustinNewman]

Wow, 80 weddings year!? You’re killing it! Keep up the awesome work, Kaylor! 🤙🏻

[amandamayfilms]

You have no idea how much I needed to hear this!! Comparison steals our creativity and community! Been getting discouraged about not feeling strong enough to use a glidecam all day because it's exhausting! I never knew other ladies were going through the same things!!! Thank you for talking about this! GO GIRLS! #girlbosses

[MunteanuFilms]

Just casually... holding a glide cam....

[simran]
