Believe it or not, we’re pretty much halfway through the year, so this episode is a mixture of catching up with recent weddings and reflecting on how we’re feeling 6 months into 2026. 
 
 Things are looking pretty symmetrical for Tom with half of his weddings already shot and pretty much the same left to go. 
 Chris is a different story altogether with only a handful of dates under his belt so far and a much bigger number left to come.
 
 From there it rolls into the usual stories about why that is, how we’re feeling and some comments on the state of the Instagram algorithm lately. 
 Be sure to listen to the end as Chris presents an interesting take on sunset portraits from a recent wedding and Tom shares the story behind his first blank roll of film.
 
 As always, we’d love to know how your 2026 is going so far and welcome all of the comments, DM’s and messages about that.
