Product Description

Sorrento Beach Canvas Print — Perth, Western Australia

A wider view of Sorrento, taken higher so the suburb and its red tile roofs fill the left of the frame and the full curve of the beach opens up. The water bands from pale sand shallows through bright aqua to deep blue, with the groyne cutting across it and the Perth skyline just visible on the horizon.

Altitude changes what a beach means. From up here Sorrento reads as a suburb and its coastline together — red roofs, Norfolk pines, the surf club, the groyne, and beyond it the Indian Ocean going on forever. It's the northern suburbs exactly as they are: houses, then sand, then nothing.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. This frame carries an unusual amount of information — architecture, roads, sandbars, reef and a distant skyline all at once — and the drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera keeps every layer legible rather than letting the far half of the image soften away.

The wide view that gives a room air

The sweep of the bay and the receding coastline create genuine depth, which makes a wall feel further away and a room feel larger. It suits living rooms, offices, apartments and hallways, and works especially well on a wall with space around it.

For anyone who grew up in Perth's northern suburbs, this is the shape of home from an angle you have never stood at.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of beaches he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

I took this one higher than the rest of the Sorrento set, and altitude completely changes what a beach means. From up here it stops being a beach and becomes a suburb and its coastline together — red tile roofs filling the left, the full curve of the bay opening up, and the city just visible on the horizon.

That is Perth's northern suburbs exactly as they are. Houses, then sand, then the Indian Ocean going on forever. The water bands from pale shallows through bright aqua to deep blue with the groyne cutting across it.

There is a lot of information in this frame — architecture, roads, sandbars, reef, distant skyline — and the 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro keeps every layer of it legible instead of letting the far half go soft.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
