My name is Michael Louis and I've helped document hundreds of weddings. I've been working in the industry for over 10 years and I've met some amazing people! In this podcast, I'm sitting down with all the wedding industry professionals I've met over the years to have a conversation. I'll be talking with photographers, videographers, planners, and other vendors about their journey to the wedding industry...and we'll take some detours along the way. . I want to hear and share YOUR STORY.
