We’re back after a couple of weeks away 😁

In this episode, James and Olly catch up on the last couple of weeks, and it’s been a busy one for both of them. Sadly, Ollie Baines couldn’t join us because he was off smashing it at Hyrox 🙌🏾

We chat about our time at Nine Dots Day, which was honestly so good. So many brilliant speakers, so many great talks, and a big shoutout to Danny Jack who came along with us and was an absolute joy to have there.

We also catch up on Olly’s time at the Fearless Conference in Florence, where he gave a talk about connection with couples and did some street photography with the legendary Dan Morris and Rafe Abrook.

James also fills us in on the Top 50 Wedding Photographers drinks night organised by Style and Professional Photo Mag, plus his film only portrait session.

Such a fun one to record. Go give it a listen 🎧

In this week’s episode of FramED, it’s a big one…

It’s Ollie Baines’s wedding anniversary!

James Richard drops an exciting announcement!

Wedding season is officially up and running for Olly Knight!

This week, we’re diving into our favourite (and most intense) part of the day — the reception.

From navigating a relentlessly tight schedule to anticipating and capturing real, blink-and-you-miss-it moments, we unpack how we handle the chaos while staying creative.

We talk about:

•⁠ ⁠Managing the pressure when the timeline starts slipping

•⁠ ⁠Capturing genuine moments in a room full of distractions

•⁠ ⁠How we interact with guests

•⁠ ⁠What happens when wedding guests pick a fight with us!!

There’s plenty of value in this one… and, as always, some absolutely terrible chat along the way.

Fresh back from half term and we have much to catch up on!

Only 5 weeks until our FramED pre season party drinks - get booked in via the FramED website!

Olly’s birthday and axe throwing antics!

James calling out Floyd Mayweather Jr..

And an Ollie fitness comp ft Jonny Ward — who produced the music behind the FramED intro.

Then we get into it: how we shoot wedding ceremonies without losing our style.

Lenses. Settings. Tough church light. Creative positioning. Real horror stories and the best ceremonies we’ve ever captured.

Loads in this one today and hopefully plenty to take away with you to your next wedding🎙️🔥

The trio are back 🎙️

We’re kicking off a brand new ‘How We Shoot It’ series on Framed and this week it’s all about prep.

What we look for, how we approach the morning, the settings we use and the little things that help us get real, authentic prep images every time.

Oh, and of course we give our most embarrassing stories of shooting prep too! Some absolute howlers in there 😂😬

Go give it a listen 👀🎧

New FramED Podcast episode is live, and this one’s a special one 🎉

We’re chatting with our very own Olly Knight, fresh off winning UK Wedding Photographer of the Year at The Wedding Industry Awards 🤯🏆

Ollie Baines couldn’t make it, so we called in the absolute legend Chelsea Cannar to jump on the mic with us, and she did not disappoint 😁🙌🏾

Olly talks us through the slightly chaotic journey up to Liverpool, the nerves before the announcement, what it actually felt like hearing his name announced, and of course, the after party 🥳

Massive thank you again Chelsea, we loved having you on (well done with your song back to Olly too) 🤍

And a massive congratulations Olly, we’re so proud of you 👏🏾

James, Olly and Ollie are back together this morning… which means absolute chaos 😜

We kick things off with a big catch-up on Frame Your Future, Knight Class, TWIA, mentoring and naturally… our pre-season drinks in March 🍻

Then Ollie takes the reins as we launch a brand new series, following a wedding from start to finish. Today? The very first interaction with our couples a the emails, the meetings, and the moments that make or break the booking.

We get into:

💻 Client meetings (the good, the bad, the why did we say that)

🏠 Online vs at-home consults

😬Absolute horror meetings!

🤔 Should we chase couples… or let them come to us?

🤝 How to build real, authentic relationships (without being weird)

If you’ve ever left a meeting thinking “did that go well…?” — this one’s for you.

The FramED Podcast returns with some exciting news… 👀

(It may or may not be about a very exciting March Social...)

In this episode James leads the chat as we break down how to book weddings when things feel a little quiet.

From Google to social media to good old-fashioned in-person connections, we share what’s actually worked for us to increase bookings.

Hopefully a helpful way to kick off 2026 🎙️
