In this episode of the Unexpected Entrepreneur podcast, Jessie speaks with Jen and Kayla from Weaver Films and Photography about their rebranding journey. They discuss the challenges they faced before rebranding, the importance of having a consistent brand identity, and how their new website has improved their client experience. 

About Weaver Films & Photography:

Jen and Kayla are the creative wife-wife duo behind Weaver Films and Photography, a newly rebranded studio formerly known as Weaver Wedding Films. For over a decade, they’ve been crafting cinematic wedding films that feel like they belong on the big screen—full of emotion, artistry, and those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments that matter most.

Their new brand expands their vision beyond weddings, offering photography alongside videography and serving not only couples but also brands, musicians, and businesses who want visuals with heart and style while driving results. With backgrounds in media, music, and production (and a shared love of travel, vegan food, and good lighting), Jen and Kayla bring an easygoing, personable approach that makes every client feel comfortable in front of the camera—while delivering visuals that are anything but ordinary.
