Ray Roman has been an inspiration for me and for a lot of people out there that want to reach the peak of success in wedding cinematography. The best course of the entire world.

Amazing! Just like he says, this was a stress-proof blueprint for me to know in which direction to go as a wedding filmmaker, both technically and business-related. I feel so inspired and prepared after the course.

Amazing course!

It is an amazing course!
Even though we’ve been in the TV industry for 20 years, we’ve learned so much by watching the course and listening to Ray sharing his experience!
Loved the aesthetics of the way the course is shot and edited!
In the end, it feels like a very talented, experienced and high end cinematographer just gives you a big hug and tells you that you are capable of things you wouldn’t have even dreamed of. Very inspiring!

I just finished watching the class and it was fabulous! It was so packed with good information that I kept finding myself rewinding the movies over and over again to catch little things I missed. Honestly the production value of the class was light years ahead of the numerous other courses I have purchased over the years from other larger online resources for creatives.
Ray is totally different from some of the instructors of those other non-MZed courses who can tend to speak in a manner that seems to project the idea that we should be thankful they are sharing their knowledge with us. Ray communicates with you on your level. It's almost unbelievable he's so down to earth and at ease in doing so considering that he's one of the best wedding day filmmakers in the world.
This course is very applicable to all wedding day filmmakers no matter where you are in your wedding day filming career. Though geared for filmmakers seeking to shoot high-end events, there is something here for everyone seeking to take their game up a notch.
If you are currently filming in the low to mid-range, this course is full of valuable information for you. Even if you are already into the higher range, if you pick up even one or two new ideas, it is still well worth the money.
Ray's pacing throughout the course if perfect. He provides all the information necessary, but with no fluff. Ray not only tells you what to do in each circumstance, but also provides the why and the how to accomplish each goal.
The cost of the course is absolutely money well spent.
Chris Moravec
Absolutely awesome. I would've loved for it to go a little more technical especially when it comes to the contract/package end of things but I learned an absolute lot.
Justin Grimaldo
Absolutely amazing, is not only his incredible craft as a filmmaker, but all the insights of the Wedding business is gold!!!
Guillermo Castellanos
One of the most applicable and practical courses I’ve ever experienced. Ray took the time to literally walk through what he does on a wedding day in many different situations (bride and groom prep, first look, ceremony and reception).
Lens choices, lighting techniques, composition ideas, working with other vendors, it’s all in there. He even shares his audio set up for capturing dialogue. He also interviews a high end DJ and a couple of planners to get insight on what they look for in the wedding filmmakers they like to work with.
Ever wondered how to maybe improve how you cover a ceremony, or the first look? Ray shares his strategy through interactive graphical representations of the movements of him and his team during these moments and more.
If you’re serious about improving in the wedding filmmaking industry and want to start charging more money, I’m not sure how you can justify not purchasing this class.

direct talk, no fluff

One of THE most inspiring courses I've ever taken, bar none!! Ray offers incredibly practical, real-world advice on how to become the best film-maker you can be. And he does it, with unbelievable humility - he's my new favorite teacher and role-model. Thank you, Ray!!!!!

Ray Roman is the GOAT! This course definitely shows how successful you can be with hard work and discipline. Listen and take notes! If you need a ONE STOP SHOP for wedding filmmaking game, itʻs this course. So experienced and knowledgeable. Dropping game changing dimes of advice, especially about BRANDING YOURSELF and who your associated with. Love the course brother, all about focus, perspective and creativity!
Brian Boshard
Nothing beats learning from the top G! of wedding filmmaking. Best investment of 2022!
Dean Jaffet Rebuyon
Mr. Roman is such an easy-going, approachable teacher. This course was well-organized, produced, and delivered. For the final module, I would've liked to see some notes on the contracts, and although I have done my own research - I would have also appreciated a module on equipment breakdown and suggestions for each based on performability and price range.
Overall a great course that made me feel confident re-entering the wedding market.
Kareen Williams
Awesome!
Fidel Ventocilla
I feel like I can do way better now just by watching the first 3 videos.
Emmanuel Petit-Homme
The course is excellent! Ray addresses everything you need to know about wedding filmmaking from a technical aspect to the business side of things. I learned so much and highly recommend this course!
Eric Garcia
The course is fantastic, I took a workshop with Ray last year and it rivals being there, it's great to be able to watch different parts over again to catch what I missed. Great job!
Colin Hurst
Awesome course to help wedding filmmakers up our game and improve our craft.
Ryan Roberts
This is unique. Where you will not learn any side better than Ray Roman.

Ray has a right-to-the-point way of teaching things. He does a really great job of explaining why he shoots the way he shoots as well. As an experienced wedding filmmaker, education is one of the best investments you can make, no matter how good you think you are, there will always be room for improvement. There's parts of the course that make you say "ah-ha!" and answers something you have been trying to figure out. I highly suggest this course to anyone out there who wants to improve the way of creating wedding films that stand out from the others!

Ray is undoubtably a legend in the international wedding industry. Two months ago, I was getting ready to get on a plane to attend one of his live-seminars… then… covid-19 occurred and this AMAZING course came out. Perfect timing!
Being able to see the whole wedding day through his creative eye was a dream coming true. Absolutely recommended if you’re looking forward to step up your game!

Excellent course and instruction! I loved seeing the course come to life and Ray's team at work! Follow this course and you will certainly up your work. Thanks Ray!
Michael Fauser
Focused, precise and qualitative
Richard Adelowotan
This is great stuff for all level of wedding cinematographers, Ray have given lot of information how to step in to the high end wedding club.
Mohammed Sanoon
The course is concise. No fluff, no time wasted once you're past the intro.
If you're like me, you've done your endless googling and research on Youtube. You've likely even shot a handful of weddings. You know enough to not completely waste the time and money of your clients but you don't know the finer points that can really set you apart from other local shooters. Seeing how a big ticket wedding filmmaker approaches the same problems us novices deal with is more than worth the price of admission.
You will definitely walk away with the confidence to do more and really just unlock the potential you knew you had all along. You wouldn't be here or trying this wedding filmmaking stuff if that wasn't the case.
My 2021/2020 bookings just got an upgrade in quality and they don't even know it yet.
Thanks MZed and thanks Ray. When this pandemic is over, I owe you a coffee.
Lyndon Labayan
I ended up giving it a five after reviewing the shared pricing guide and contract.
Diving deeper with more specifics on editing and the depth of field choice used for specific shots throughout would have been helpful. I'm still curious about the color grading and editing techniques utilized to achieve the final footage.
All in all it is a good course to quickly elevate our game.
Dylan Russell
Absolutely loved this course, Ray has a clear and concise way of breaking down different parts of the day. Highly recommend to anyone that is looking to level up their video game!
ANDREW BOR
So informational and inspiring! I can't wait to apply what I've learned and take my business to the next level.
Kevin Duplan
I've been a fan of Rays work when I found him online in 2008, always helpful and responds and never holds anything back. I come back to this class and his CreativeLives a lot, when I have problems at weddings or situations that are awful. A truly genuine nice guy and legit wants the community to grow and become better. I'll always support his work and learn from him. He is the real deal.
Brett Hatfield
I feel equipped, inspired, and ready to go out and create beautiful wedding films. Thank you Ray Roman for giving us insight into your creative process and also tips for building an excellent brand.
Sarah MacClary
I loved the course, it's very inspirational just looking at all these amazing work Roman produced and shows throughout the course. The only reason why I didn't give 5 stars is that I would like to have a bit more precise details in the basics especially about the settings on camera, where he starts to make twitches from there. But overall a great course that I can highly recommend.
Patrick Massen
Epic instruction. I've been following Ray since 2008 is he still impressive.
George Anderson
This course is really great but I can't give that extra half star.
The post-production step was not detailed, of course we don"t want to learn Premiere/FinalCut/DaVinci but discover the process behind a good edit, how to get the best with sound, sync, and your footage.
With that, it would be an even greater course.
It is truly inspiring.
Romain Pardon
Thank you! Loved the class!
Lisa Johnson
Awesome course, I love the way he explained everything, I would just love to see a little bit more of the post-production such as editing and luts and all that stuff. Besides it, everything was amazing
Alan Perez
Great to see how the best does it!
Robert Slocum
Really really loved this course. Ray is clearly an expert in this field and I left with many many take aways that I will be applying to my wedding videography.
Giving four and a half stars just because there were a few moments that left we wanting more...like learning how to mic a bride (which I ended up youtubing), understanding his post production workflow (how do you organize, set up your timelines, label. ect...), or even a deep dive into which gear he recommends. I left trying to figure out which slider he used.
All in all, a great course with TONS of knowledge and takeaways. Thanks so much Ray!
Colin Powell
It's great course with a wonderful wedding videographer but for me the chapter about postproduction is poor with zero technical information. It's only couple of wedding video and talking about music but where is leason about colorizing. I would like know more about lightning, more deep technical informations not only base knowledge. Anyway thank you for this course and great job.
Dawid Lepke
It's a great course. I am totally new to wedding films, so this was super helpful. Totally worth the investment. But one point where it totally missed the mark is post production workflow. As someone who is totally new, the post-production workflow would have helped tremendously. That would have given this course 10 stars.
But, I would still recommend it strongly to anyone looking to learn wedding filmmaking.
Mohanpreet Singh
Great and invaluable course. Wish there would have been a little more time digging into the nitty gritty of editing. But overall way worth the value and more!
Thomas Whited
Great work. Wished it had a little more content tho. How you find your music, poses, edit, etc.
Salvador Reynoso
Lots of useful tips and advice, although It would have have been nice to have been given more tips and advice about destination weddings, and also Ray's editing workflow.
