Sherman Tan Studio
About
Overview & Vibe
A Melbourne wedding photographer working across the city, from two-hour registry ceremonies at the Old Treasury Building to full-day celebrations. An architect’s eye for composition shows in the work, and the studio has been recognised internationally, including as a 2025 emerging artist finalist.
Style & Approach
Elegant and natural, with bright imagery and true skin tones, aiming at photographs that feel polished and timeless rather than of their moment. Direction is given simply — prompts rather than poses, and movement rather than stillness — so couples who dislike being photographed are not left standing about.
Ideal For
Two quite different couples. Those marrying at the Victorian Marriage Registry who want an intimate day photographed properly, from $1,490 for two hours; and those planning a full celebration, where coverage runs between $5,000 and $7,000.
The Need-to-Knows
The final gallery arrives within three to twelve weeks, and an album takes a further four to six weeks to be made. Additional coverage on the registry collection is $250 per half hour. Every booking includes planning guides and drone coverage where permitted. Enquiries are answered within two business days.
Standout Feature
A dedicated collection built around the Victorian Marriage Registry — timed to the ceremony, the congratulations and the portraits around the precinct — which is unusual in a market where a short ceremony is usually treated as a cut-down version of a full day.
Albums & Prints
- Fine Art Album — Priced on enquiry. Hand-made after the photographs are chosen, taking a further four to six weeks.
- Prints And Wall Art — Priced on enquiry. Offered as an upgrade alongside the album.
Appointment Policy
- Enquiries are made through the contact form and answered within two business days.
- A relaxed phone or video call is offered before booking.
- Couples are sent a wedding timeline planning guide and a family photo flow guide once booked.
