My Best Life Speech : Inspired (video)

I forgot to post this on my blog! Oh no! Last month I spoke at the Best Life Summit in Durham, North Carolina – it took me a long time to come up with what I wanted to say, but I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out – even if I haven’t exactly watched …

Now I'm hungry...

It started with a donut…

What did you do to your hand? The short answer is “I punched a wall”, the long answer is a little more embarrassing and a little  (okay, a lot) less indicative of anger problems.  On a totally nondescript Friday evening, after a productive (I think?) day of work, I was set about to sit down …

Sometimes you win while sleeping (usually after sacrificing lots of sleep)

I awoke to a flight attendant tapping my shoulder and urging me to pull down my tray table. Odd, don’t they usually wake you up so you can do the opposite? Groggily, I pulled down the tray in a dreamy, Charlie pre-golden ticket state to reveal a (not gold but) yellow sticker proclaiming, “Congrats! You …

What does the “Inspired” stand for in “Inspired Video Marketing”?

“A moment’s insight is sometimes worth a life’s experience” – Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr The day I woke up and was to meet with my resident agent to sign my business LLC, I had no idea what my business would be called. For the past 2 or 3 years, I had been working part-time doing …

Aha! How I Converted Micro Cassettes to Digital with Equipment I Already Had

I’ve been on a crusade to turn my mementos digital, thus solving the problem of having way too much clutter due to nostalgic items. Along the way, I found 5 micro cassette tapes from 2005 – mostly recording my little sister Molly (she’s 13 now – see below) as a baby. I knew I had …

When you lose your bag in Amsterdam

Some of you probably saw my vlog two weeks ago (hint: it’s this one) Then radio silence: And now, I’m back! With interesting stories to share. The biggest one being that, on my way from the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam into Amsterdam Centraal (the main train station) I left my day bag (sorry Jesse!)(not featured …

The 4 Questions to be Asking Yourself on the Daily

Thank you 2017, Hello 2018!

One year ago today I launched “Inspired Video Marketing” as my full time gig. (Okay FINE, hecklers, it wasn’t called “Inspired Video Marketing back then). I don’t remember what thoughts I had going into it. What I DO remember is that half of January 1, 2017 was spent on my bed, listening to an audiobook, …

Here’s what most people don’t see (but probabl Here’s what most people don’t see (but probably should):
 
👉 A 15-second video can take 3 hours (or more) to shoot. It’s not just point-and-shoot - it’s lighting, sound, angles, direction, intention, and getting it to feel right.

👉 Sometimes, I’ll choose message over perfection. A perfect video that says nothing won’t move people.

👉 Long-form isn’t killing attention spans. Bad storytelling is. If the story is strong, people will watch the whole thing. (K-pop Demon Hunters anyone???)

👉 I spend more time editing videos than marketing myself (thank Hanna for that 😉).

👉 I charge for value, not just my time. Because you're not just paying for a camera, you’re investing in expertise, strategy, direction, and results.

👉 And yes, I still get nervous before big shoots. Every. Single. Time. But I always show up and deliver what your story deserves.
 
This work isn’t just about creating “cool videos.” It’s about telling stories that move people, connect with your audience, and support your business with purpose.
 
If you’re ready to stop winging your content and start showing up with clarity, confidence, and scroll-stopping visuals, shoot us a DM.
 
We’ll make something that actually works for you.

We're just not buying it anymore. As a videograp We're just not buying it anymore. 

As a videographer who works with different kinds of businesses, I’ve seen the impact of intentional content, and I’ve also heard all the myths 🙄

Here’s what we’re clearing up today:

🎀 Video marketing isn't complicated, but it can be, if you go solo.
🎀 If you want a "five-minute edit", you’ll get "five-minute" results. Craft takes time.
🎀 Engagement builds community, trust, and future revenue. It’s part of the long game.
🎀 Authenticity + strategy + consistency = results for any business.
🎀 You are the algorithm. Engagement starts with you.
