This week, we’re getting behind the lens with Brian Marcus, the legendary wedding photographer behind Fred Marcus Studio, a New York City institution with over 80 years of luxury weddings under its belt. From capturing icons like Mary Tyler Moore and Eddie Murphy to snapping LeBron James’s wedding (!!), Brian’s seen it all—and he’s here to spill.

We talk about what makes a truly timeless wedding photo, the major red flags to look for when hiring a photographer, and why your photo team should be more than just a vendor—they should feel like part of your inner circle. Plus: the wildest thing Brian’s ever seen at a wedding (spoiler: it involves a bar, a bride, and a very questionable kiss 😳).

Episode Highlights:

•The secret to capturing real, emotional wedding photos
