About

Overview & Vibe

Emot is a national wedding photography and video brand run from an office at Balnarring on the Mornington Peninsula, with photographers around the country. It is built to be booked online rather than courted: you check your date, pick a package, pay a booking fee, and a photographer is matched to you afterwards. If you want to choose a particular person and meet them first, this is not that kind of studio -- and the engagement session exists partly to introduce you.

Style & Approach

Candid and natural, edited to a house look they describe as bright and modern. Because the shooting is spread across a team, the editing is what holds the style together -- every wedding goes to the same in-house editors.

Ideal For

Couples who want a clear price before they enquire, and couples on a budget: at $1,399 for three hours this is among the lowest entry prices in this list. It also suits anyone who wants photography and film from one booking, or who wants their photographs back almost immediately.

The Need-to-Knows

Photography runs from $1,399 for three hours to $2,399 for eight, with roughly 300 and 600 edited images. Photo and video together start at $4,499. Extra hours are $250. A $400 booking fee per service holds the date and comes off the total, with instalment and buy-now-pay-later plans available. Postponing is free; cancelling costs $400 per package. There are no watermarks and you may print whatever you like.

Standout Feature

Two working days. Your photographs land in your gallery within two working days of a city wedding -- where most photographers in this list quote four to twelve weeks. For anyone who has watched friends wait three months, that is the reason to look here.

Albums & Prints

Hardcover Photobook. Price: $330. Description: A 50-page 30x30cm book of 200 images on 220gsm silk paper.
