A quote for a wedding film should tell you how long the session runs, how many images you’ll receive, and how fast they’ll land in your inbox. Missing one of those? Ask first.
Sessions booked through Emmet.t.c (from £600 for a highlights film) include the shoot itself, a proofing gallery and a set number of fully retouched images. Extra retouching, rush delivery and travel beyond central London get quoted separately. That’s always agreed up front, never added afterwards.
Usage rights for commercial work rarely get mentioned unprompted, so ask. So does what happens if a reshoot is needed because the weather or venue changed on the day, and how long your files stay on file if you need a re-download next year.

FAQs
The short version follows.
How long is the final film?
A highlights film typically runs three to five minutes: the ceremony and speeches lead into the first dance. A longer documentary-style cut is available on request.
Do you include drone footage?
Where the venue allows it, yes. Aerial shots of the venue and grounds are a nice addition to a highlights film, subject to permission on the day.
