It’s our last episode before Christmas and things are feeling very festive.

In this end-of-year catch-up, we’re recording from unusual locations, wearing questionable festive headwear, and reflecting on what has been a huge first year of The Becky Sessions. We chat about nativity plays, school schedules, Christmas overwhelm, and the mental load of juggling editing, motherhood and work in December.

We also dive into some honest business talk: handling enquiries without bookings, imposter syndrome, pricing confidence, asking for reviews, and the emotional weight of working so closely with couples. Plus, reflections on community, creative careers, going full-time, and why this job — despite being hard — is still pretty magical.

We wrap things up by sharing our personal and professional highlights of the year, celebrating the podcast (and you for listening), and signing off with a Christmas joke straight from the kids.

Merry Christmas from both Beckys, and we’ll see you in the New Year.

In this episode of The Becky Sessions, the two Beckys sit down with none other than Australian wedding-filmmaking icon Grace Cardona. From fangirl moments at Coda to navigating burnout, brand identity, and a decade of shooting weddings, Grace opens up about the highs, lows, and hilarious chaos of editing life.

We dive into her start in the industry, how she built the legendary Bottlebrush Films brand, why raw footage can be a secret superpower and how she now balances documentary filmmaking with her wedding work. Grace shares candid thoughts on confidence, people-pleasing, women in videography, outsourcing, directing, travel editing and keeping your creative spark alive.

It’s a conversation packed with humour, big truths, Aussie sunshine, and practical wisdom for anyone carving out a creative career—especially the women who are shaking up this industry one frame at a time.

We're back after Becky K's birthday celebrations and TWIA results and Becky T running on fumes after an eventful night with the baby.

We chat about:

• Handling client cancellations • Networking — are wedding industry awards becoming more community-focused or competitive? • The magic of experimenting creatively, from mic’ing couples all day to trying Ray-Ban smart glasses on the dance floor • Why there’s more than one way to make a wedding film — and why difference is good for the industry

And yes, there’s also the bit where motherhood crashes the party — babies who won’t take bottles, sleepless nights, and juggling edits between nativity plays and carol concerts.

It’s candid, practical and packed with “you too?!” moments — a reminder you’re not alone trying to build a business while raising small humans.

Plus, our wins of the week and a birthday card joke. Tune in! 🎬❤️
