What AI Means for Photographers (and Why It Matters) with Chris from Grainy Boi Weddings
Tuesday, 23 December, 2025
In this episode, I’m sitting down with Chris, a film photographer I discovered through a viral Instagram post about AI that sparked a lot of conversation. He shares the story behind his post, which features AI generated wedding images so convincing they fooled both industry peers and his own family, and why that experiment felt like a real wake-up call. That post opened the door to a much bigger discussion - one about where photography is headed in an AI-powered world, how easily fabricated images can pass as real, and what that means for trust and transparency in our industry.Meet Chris:Chris Spencer-Payne is a UK based film photographer working under the name Grainyboi. His work centres around travel photography & weddings all shot entirely on film. His work is rooted in being present and letting things happen naturally. No forced moments & no heavy polish. Whether he is photographing a wedding or golden hour in the mountains, the goal is always the same. Slow down, pay attention, and trust the process.Connect with Me:Become a Member of Summer SchoolJoin me at WPPI and get 20% off your ticket using code SUMMER26Subscribe here to our emails for updates on all things Summer School!Instagram: @summergrace.photo @the_summerschool Shop My Products:Summer Grace x G-Presets (discount code: SUMMERSCHOOL)Pricing GuideSummer Camp (2026)*Summer School is powered by Narrative — the AI culling and editing tool I use that supports my workflow without replacing my creativity.
