Realtors—don’t just show off the home with your next listing.
Use it to show off your personal brand, too.
Remember, your product is not the home.
Your product is you, your expertise, and your services.
Investing in quality listing assets can go a lot further than just selling one home—it can help get you your next one!
What do you think? Worth it or not?
Nat sound is an amazing tool in the filmmakers tool belt. But is it worth ir for a simple reel?
I try to capture it on-site when I can, but that is not always a feasible option.
I was at this location for less than ten minutes before I had to go to the next one.
Thankful that @soundstripe.com so often comes in clutch in moments like these.

I’ve had better looking videos… more elaborate videos… videos with fancier shots and techniques than this.
But golly. The stories that were told on this particular Sunday. Each rang like a bell in my head from the early, culling stages of the editing process.
And what I do begins and ends with story. Every. Single. Time.
So what I set out to do was simply to not get in the way of the stories shared. Help my audience feel the weight of some of the really hard stuff. And in the process we feel the magnitude and beauty of what’s happened in each person’s life.
Some of these stories are simple. Some more complex. Some big burdens were overcome or dropped. Some the simple seeking of what’s real and true came to a head.
Each one of those stories is magnificent.
I shed tears almost every time I work on one of these videos.
I shed a lot of tears on this one.
“What’s life been like with Jesus?”
-“I don’t have a burden.”
Period.
Done.
End of story.
That’s what this is all about.

*Not just a dude who is going to make great looking videos for you*
A discovery call for me is just as much knowing what you’re trying to accomplish in your business—maybe even what sorts of problems you’re trying to solve in your business as it is talking about what kinds of videos you want.
Every client comes to me with something in their head in regards to what kind of content they want or what they want their brand to look like.
That’s great!
But wouldn’t you rather have a video partner who also understands what makes your business tick.. what questions your clients are asking… and what problems you may be having with advertising, onboarding, etc?
Because if you’re going to pay for video content, let’s make it look and sound great.
But lets also make sure its hitting the mark for your business.

If you were wondering how to get maximum engagement with a reel, this isn’t how to do it.
But I can’t help but share work like this, because it easily some of my favorite to create. And as much as the social media overlords want video to be vertical, this one was made for the big screen.
So for those who turned your phone sideways to watch this portion of this recap video, thank you.

Highlights from this gorgeous property in Edinburgh, IN!
The owner of this home was a general contractor who designed and built the home himself. Including the old-school interior oak frame 😱
Love getting to capture homes like these for my clients!

Not everyone’s goal for the video work they invest in is the same. But if your aim is to increase sales, traffic or your audience on social media, short form video is the way to do it in 2023.
Now, I love long-form content (I’m editing a 2+ hour video course in this reel…) and while I love creating these videos for those who need them, long form content like this isn’t necessarily growth or sales focused.
And the great thing about this sort of content is that producing it can be way more cost-effective and scalable than focusing on one or two hallmark video pieces. Here’s my process:
💥 A discovery meeting to find out your offers and goals
💥 One shoot day per month to shoot all of that months content (yep… 10, 15, 20 videos… in one day!)
💥 A creative meeting once a month before that shoot to plan content
Follow if you want to see how my clients are using high end short form video to achieve their goals this year.
And DM me if this is something you’re interested in learning more about for your business!

Spring is coming which means listings are coming 👀 👀 👀
The number 1 thing I’ve found that helps set realtors apart from the competition to get more listings is HIGH QUALITY VIDEO.
But why pay a videographer when you need to get pictures done, too?
Maybe your videographer can do your high-end photographs as well 😏
MOST homes I capture I get:
-Interior Photos
-Exterior Photos
-A Highlight Video
-Aerial Photos
-Aerial Video
DM me to ask about my full-service high end media packages for your next listing.
Its 2023. Video is king. Make sure your next listing has it!

Looking back (this one just two months…) on Baptisms last November as I finish the recap video for tomorrow’s services.
This is the first video shot in our new facility. And while it’s nice to have all the new tools (real stage lighting, a cinema camera in the booth for great “out” shots, room mics for those great audience reactions…) the thing I’m celebrating the most is that this was the most people I’ve had to put in one recap video. The most baptisms I’ve captured in any given Sunday. Praise the Lord 🙌🏻
If what we are doing isn’t about life-change, then the tools I mentioned are just idols.
Excited for all the others we will dunk in that tank in the coming years.

Kevin & Kelsi Wedding Preview
“Can you make sure to get video of us feeding the goats?” Kelsi asked me when we had our first inquiry call.
One of the best parts of a couple’s “special day” is the fact they really can make all the details unique to represent who they are. And when your venue backs up to a pasture and you love goats, seize the opportunity ☺️
Kevin and Kelsi’s day was unique and special in so many ways beyond just this detail, and since this was my FIRST wedding as a videographer, I felt so honored to be trusted to capture it for them.
I have so much great footage of their beautiful ceremony, it was hard to pick just the highlights. But thankfully their full wedding film is coming soon (including, yes, more goats… 😆)
The heat of summer is still here, and while I already can’t wait for fall, one of my favorite weeks of the season was capturing our ministry’s summer camp.
Students from multiple Michigan and Indiana churches gathered for a collective experience at Lake Ann Camp. The week was filled with incredible worship, preaching of the word, and of course, loads of fun (is it summer camp without it?) Here were some of my favorite bits.
Spring @ the Farm
It’s not very often I take the time to make something just for myself, but last week we were at the family farm with Jack. I had my camera, *one* vintage lens with me, and a few simple moments outside.
I’m notorious for capturing these moments and then letting them sit on a hard drive. And I certainly didn’t have any free time when I started editing this project 😂 but it is life-giving to occasionally make things just for the sake of making them.
This is a short excerpt from the video that opened our Easter services this year.
I did something for this that I haven’t done in awhile, which was to create my own music bed. In this case it ended up being a necessity since the piece synchronized with our opening song. Always fun to have a crossover project where I can use both my music and production skills.
Worth the payoff in person 💯 but unfortunately that makes it a little harder to share here.
Still, I think this excerpt gives a feel for the finished product. Even if it’s just half the story. Voiceover written and performed by @jake_zurawski8 who (as always) crushed it 🙌🏻
Don’t have a clever place I’ve posted the link to the full service (including how it tied in with the worship set,) but you can hunt it down if you start here: @redeemerbible.church
I must have shot and edited a dozen event recap videos like this one in the last year or two. In fact I don’t always share them here. Working in so many different formats, these can often seem formulaic to me compared to my other projects.
But people’s unique stories are what always make these special. Some good stuff in this video 💯
Also almost completely shot this on a #bmpcc4k I’m still a Sony guy, but it’s always fun to get to work with some different tools occasionally.
