LEVEL UP: A Wedding Photography + Videography Podcast

DEBRIEF: 3 Day Wedding in Tahoe

Taylor Petrinovich & Kelley Gilster | The Level Up Co.

We’re kicking off something new and exciting, our Debrief Series. In this series, we’re taking you behind the scenes of real weddings to break down what went right, what challenged us, and the lessons that can help you grow as a creative and business owner.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a 3-day luxury wedding weekend that Taylor filmed in Lake Tahoe. From the welcome party to the field day to the wedding itself, this event pushed every part of the process, planning, communication, teamwork, and execution. We’re unpacking what it looks like to navigate the high-pressure world of multi-day luxury weddings while maintaining confidence, leadership, and creativity at every step.

Whether you’re stepping into larger-scale productions or just want to strengthen your approach to luxury weddings, this episode gives you an honest look at the realities of filming high-end events and leading a strong team.

We’re so excited for this new series and can’t wait to share more behind-the-scenes moments that will help you build confidence, strengthen your business, and elevate the way you work.
