"He is best wedding photographer you can find in Melbourne !!!"
Even three years after Monica and Chris's wedding, they still highly recommend us to their friends.

Modern, timeless and storytelling. We love seamlessly capturing wedding photos that flow like breezes and poems, in the name of Muses.

We a A-Team of wedding photographers based in Melbourne. Over the last 10 years, we have brought smiles to many brides and grooms. Yet, we still remain true to our original aspiration to photograph the next wedding.

Our Wedding Photography Philosophy


Monica and Chris used to ask me: "What is ..."

 

Read More

"What is your wedding photography style?" This was a crucial question that popped up when Monica and Chris met me at the first meeting for their wedding photography inquiry.

My memory flashed back to a cozy late-summer day.

Monica had been planning her wedding for almost 12 months since Chris proposed to her on New Year's Eve last year. She admitted that she wanted to find the best wedding photographer in Melbourne. To ensure they made the right choice. Monica asked me a sharp question: “What is your wedding photography style?"

I know that plenty Melbourne wedding photographers describe their wedding photography style as natural and candid, and so do we.

But I don’t think this cookie-cutter answer can satisfy her, as she planned her wedding day for almost 12 months, she deserved a genuine answer.

My dear reader, having come this far, perhaps you’re are a bride or a wedding photographer like me, you know I want to be her wedding photographer. I wiped my sweat on my forehead (even the weather on that day wasn’t too hot) and I was lost in thought.

Has a perfect wedding photography style ever existed?

In my entire wedding photography career, I've met many brides who have their own understanding of aesthetics.

Regardless of whether I describe our wedding photography as candid or classic, we risk losing one group of customers. Some brides who prefer candid wedding photography may not be fond of classical wedding photographs, as they perceive them to be outdated. Conversely, brides who admire classic wedding photography may not embrace the concept of candid wedding photography.

How do we dance in front of these different brides?

We strive to be bride-oriented wedding photographers. Drawing inspiration from Plato's philosophical ideas, each bride holds an idealized vision of wedding photography that may not existed in real world. As humans, we recognize that only God can create a truly perfect wedding photograph for each bride. Therefore, the perfect wedding image exists solely in the mind of the bride and not in practicality.

If we can approximate each bride's perfect vision of wedding photography, we can inch closer to capturing the ideal wedding image. Hence, I refer to this approach to wedding photography as intuitive wedding photography.

"Intuitive wedding photography," I concisely answered Monica and Chris.

Chris’s expression revealed his curiosity as he asked, 'Intuitive wedding photography? It's the first time I've heard of that.'

I knew explaining the concept of intuitive wedding photography would take some time.

So, I said to Chris and Monica, 'Before I explain the obscure concept of intuitive wedding photography, how about we look at some substantive wedding photography we've captured? So, we can build a preliminary understanding of intuitive wedding photography.

‘Chris and Monica. Let’s discover our wedding photography

    Frequently Asked Questions | Melbourne Wedding Photographer

    1Are you available on my wedding day?
    No matter how much you like any photographer in Melbourne, the first thing you should confirm is their availability. Before booking our wedding photography or videography package, please feel free to send us an inquiry via our contact page .
    2Where can we arrange to meet you?
    As a professional wedding photographer, you can meet us at our studio at 246 Coventry St South Melbourne. There is plenty of parking in front of the studio. If you are far from Melbourne city, we can also make a Zoom meeting for your convenience.
    3How far do you travel for a wedding?
    Our primary service area is Melbourne, Victoria-wide. Sometimes, we also travel to interstates such as Sydney in NSW, Hobart in TAS, etc. If your wedding venue is located outside of Victoria, please make sure to inform us in the inquiry form.
    4How do you charge a travel fee?
    We waive the travel fee if the farthest location, such as the bride and groom’s preparation address, ceremony, and reception, is within 20 km of Melbourne CBD.

    Beyond the 20 km radius, we charge $2 per kilometre per person.

    For a precise quotation, please reach out to our wedding photography consultation via email.
    5What cameras do you use?
    We employ the latest mirrorless cameras, such as the Canon R5 or Sony A7 Mark 4. This cutting-edge technology enables our photographers to focus more on communicating with the bride and groom and capturing fine details on their wedding day.

    While having quality cameras and lenses is essential, it's the expertise of a professional photographer that ensures the delivery of exceptional photos.
    6Do you use second camera?
    Yes, the second camera is not only a backup camera, but it also allows the photographer to change different lenses without too much hassle. As a rule of thumb, the wedding photographer needs to capture precious moments that only happen once.
    7What if I am not photogenic?
    Not everyone feels confident and comfortable in front of lens, and not everyone is super model, so that why you need to hire a professional wedding photographer. One of essential job for the wedding photographer to ease the stress for the bride and groom to assure the photo look natural.

    Professional wedding photographers have experience in using a better angle, lighting, and lens to make a good photo. Remember, your genuine smiles make for wonderful wedding photos.
    8What if you are sick, do you have a backup plan?
    When you think of this question, it proves that you are a thoughtful bride. The criteria of reliability are always crucial considerations for a professional wedding photographer. We are a team of wedding photographers based in Melbourne; we always have a photographer working at the studio to cover emergencies. Their daily job is editing, but if your main wedding photographer gets sick or has any unwanted accidents, the backup wedding photographer can be your lifesaver.
    9Do you have a second photographer?
    Most of the time, we have one photographer on the wedding day. However, in certain circumstances, when the bride and groom need to get ready simultaneously in the morning, they may require two wedding photographers. Weddings that incorporate cultural traditions, such as Lebanese, Vietnamese, Jewish, etc., benefit from having two photographers who can capture these customs more thoroughly than a sole wedding photographer.

    At Tree Studio, we function as a team. If you're interested in hiring a second wedding photographer, please mention it during our initial meeting.
    10Can you work with a wedding videographer?
    That is not a problem. Indeed, we prefer to work with a wedding videographer from Tree Studio because we are familiar with their shooting method. However, we often work with wedding videographers from different companies as well.

    To ensure that the wedding photographer and videographer are on the same page, we schedule a phone call a week before the wedding. A simple chat can help the wedding photographer and videographer get to know each other.
    11What if it rains on the wedding day?
    In Melbourne, we can experience four seasons in one day. However, a rainy day is not bad for wedding photography. The light drizzle and overcast weather create a soft and even light for the wedding photographer.

    If you plan to take wedding photos in Melbourne city, there are many locations that provide shelter, such as Parliament House, NGV, and the State Library.

    If you are getting married in the countryside, such as the Yarra Valley, Dandenong Ranges, or Mornington Peninsula, these locations lack shelter. In such cases, you can bring clear umbrellas for wedding photos, as some of these umbrellas can add a touch of pomp to creative wedding photography.
    12How many photos do you provide?
    Every wedding and photographer can provide a varying number of photos. Generally, Tree Studio offers 100 photos per hour. For example, if you book our 6-hour photography coverage, you might receive 500-600 photos.
    13How many photos do you edit?
    We apply color correction to all photos. Let me briefly explain what color correction entails. When wedding photographers capture photos, they typically use the RAW setting, which preserves the full color spectrum and contains rich information on exposure and color temperature.

    On the wedding day, due to the fast pace of work, the photos may vary in exposure and color temperature. For example, there may be underexposed or overexposed shots, and the color temperature may differ in various environments, such as warm color themes in a chapel with chandeliers or cool color themes in a forest.

    Consistency in appearance is crucial for a professional wedding photographer. During the color correction process, we ensure consistent exposure and color temperature across wedding photos. Additionally, appropriate color correction can enhance the natural appearance of people's skin tones.
    14Do you have a watermark on the photo?
    For the wedding photos provided to the couples, there are no watermarks. You can rest assured knowing that you won't incur hidden costs for the removal of watermarks at Tree Studio. Additionally, we include high-resolution photos in our package for our couples.

    We only use watermarks on the photos published on our website and social media platforms. This precaution is taken to protect our copyright.
    15Who is the best wedding photographer in Melbourne?
    Personally, I would say Tree Studio is the best wedding photographer in Melbourne. Don't rush to refute me just yet. I believe every wedding photographer thinks they are the best in Melbourne but doesn't dare to say so because it doesn't seem humble.

    However, if you don't even believe you are the best wedding photographer in Melbourne, how can couples have confidence in choosing you for their wedding?

    When I proclaim Tree Studio as the best wedding photographer in Melbourne, I don't base it on self-ego or delusion. I aim to provide solid evidence to support my claim that Tree Studio is indeed the best wedding photographer in Melbourne.

    Here are 7 reasons to support my assertion that Tree Studio is the best wedding photographer in Melbourne.

    1. Dedicated Team - Tree Studio is a company that has dedicated wedding photographers, sales consultants, managers, and editors. A well-organized company is more effective than an individual wedding photographer.

    I know some individual wedding photographers claim that they work with couples from the initial meeting to the album design. However, a single case cannot infer a general phenomenon.

    Why were our ancestors able to defeat wild animals, such as tigers and lions, in dangerous circumstances? It was not because we are stronger, faster than animals. As humans, we know how to cooperate with others.

    This simple concept also applies to wedding photography. I rarely find a wedding photographer who is expertise all in consultation, marketing, photography, customer service. If someone could be perfect in everything, they must be an omnipotent God.

    Whether couples can hire a God to be their wedding photographer, or whether God exists in the world, I confess I don’t know. If there's something I don’t know, I remain silent.

    If God does not exist in Melbourne, or if He doesn’t want to be a wedding photographer, I can confidently say that Tree Studio is the best wedding photographer in Melbourne based on my logical deduction.

    If you are a wedding photographer aiming to claim the title of the best wedding photographer in Melbourne, you must prove that you are better than Tree Studio. To overturn my logical deduction, you must either be a God or not an individual wedding photographer.

    2. Backup Wedding Photographer Plan - Tree Studio has a backup wedding photographer. Couples might overlook this important criterion or believe it's a reason to consider Tree Studio as the best wedding photography company in Melbourne. I'd like to emphasize that reliability is a necessary factor for wedding photographers. If your chosen photographer cannot be present on your wedding day, there's nothing further to discuss.

    At Tree Studio, we have in-house wedding photographers working at the studio. Their daily job involves editing photographs, but in case of emergencies, our backup wedding photographer can step in for any photographer who is sick or facing unexpected issues.

    If you are a wedding photographer in Melbourne aiming to claim the esteemed title of the best wedding photographer, you must prove that you are superior to Tree Studio. Having a backup wedding photographer is a prerequisite to challenge Tree Studio's merit.

    3.In-House Marketing Team - Tree Studio boasts an in-house marketing team. Some wedding photographers laugh when they see this reason. However, those photographers who mock my statement while bearing the brunt of hefty advertising bills might reconsider their amusement. Indeed, advertisements can be quite expensive, often cutting into the profit margins of wedding photographers. Interestingly, couples frequently allocate significant funds to advertising but may skimp on investing in wedding photography services.

    Fortunately for Tree Studio, we have a seasoned in-house marketing team. Most of our exposure comes from Google, YouTube organic traffic, and referrals from satisfied customers. While we do participate in wedding expos and run social media ad campaigns, we strive to keep these costs to a minimum. This long-term marketing strategy ensures that Tree Studio prioritizes investment in the quality of wedding photography and customer service over advertising.

    So, if you're a wedding photographer in Melbourne aspiring to claim the prestigious title of the best wedding photographer, you must demonstrate that you surpass Tree Studio. To counter my logical deduction, your exposure should predominantly rely on organic marketing rather than expensive ads.

    4. Comprehensive Wedding Photographer Training - Tree Studio offers comprehensive and ongoing training. While I acknowledge that some wedding photographers possess natural instincts and talents that enable them to capture stunning wedding photos, great intuition and artistic sensibility alone won't suffice to become an exceptional wedding photographer. Continuous training is essential to elevate oneself and take the next step towards earning the title of Melbourne's best wedding photographer.

    At Tree Studio, we provide a complete wedding photographer guide and a guide to the top 20 wedding photo locations, both of which can be found on our website. We are passionate about sharing these resources with photographers aspiring to become professionals in the wedding photography industry. Additionally, we offer internal training materials exclusively accessible to our team members at Tree Studio.

    So, if you aim to be recognized as the best wedding photographer in Melbourne, you must demonstrate that you surpass Tree Studio in skill and expertise, and you must commit to comprehensive training. Importantly, this training should be documented in writing, not merely conveyed orally.
    While some may argue that oral instruction qualifies as legitimate training, consider this: throughout human history, literacy has been a hallmark of advanced civilizations. In the same vein, for training to be credible and comprehensive, it should be meticulously structured and documented in written form.

    5. In-House Editing Team - Due to cost constraints, many wedding photographers outsource their post-editing overseas. While this can save both money and time, and some overseas photo editing companies may provide reasonable quality for color correction, if you aim for the highest quality in your final production, in-house editing is essential.

    The reason is simple: every monitor displays colors differently. An overseas editor cannot guarantee that the photo will look accurate on your monitor. If you're creating an album for your clients, you cannot ensure color accuracy in the album if you've outsourced the editing work overseas.

    In-house editing offers numerous benefits beyond color accuracy. The primary drawback is that in-house editing can be more expensive than outsourcing, because Australian labor costs are significantly higher than those overseas.

    However, if you aspire to be recognized as the best wedding photographer in Melbourne, you must edit photos in-house.

    6.Pricing - Setting a practical price is crucial for a successful wedding photographer's business. According to the Easy Wedding report, the average cost for a wedding photographer in Melbourne was $3,152 in 2022.

    Tree Studio's essential 6-hour wedding photography package starts at $1,799 (as of 2024 pricing).

    The average price for wedding photography is approximately $3,000, which closely aligns with the figure from the Easy Wedding report.

    If we consider $3,152 as the median price from Easy Wedding, any price below this can be considered affordable for a wedding photography package. Tree Studio's starting price is below $3,152, positioning it as competitively priced in Melbourne.

    We can all agree that affordability is a key consideration for consumers. Few people want to overpay for anything. While some might argue in favor of luxury brands like Ferrari or Louis Vuitton, people are often paying for the brand's prestige rather than production costs. Higher prices are generally not seen as a merit by most consumers; affordability is.
