Product Description

Grant Street Beach Canvas Print — Cottesloe, Perth WA

Grant Street is the quiet end of Cottesloe, where the reef comes close to shore and the suburb runs right down to the dune. This aerial photograph takes in the rooftops, the road, the sand and the dark reef spreading beneath clear water.

Ask a western-suburbs local where they actually swim and a lot of them will say Grant Street rather than the main beach. Same water, same sand, a fraction of the crowd — and because the reef sits closer in here, the snorkelling is better and the water reads in richer bands of colour.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The reef is what makes this stretch look the way it does, and the drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera holds its structure through the water alongside the fine detail in the streets above — two very different subjects in a single exposure.

A local piece, not a landmark one

This is not the postcard Cottesloe, and that's exactly its appeal. It means the most to the people who live along this coast — the ones who park in the same spot, swim the same stretch and know precisely where the reef starts.

It suits living rooms, apartments and offices, and it sits beautifully alongside the brighter Cottesloe pieces as the quieter, more personal note on the wall.

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

Ask anyone in the western suburbs where they actually swim and a lot of them will say Grant Street rather than the main Cottesloe beach. Same water, same sand, a fraction of the crowd.

The reef sits closer to shore down this end, which makes the snorkelling better and turns the water into richer bands of colour. I flew it to take in the whole arrangement — rooftops, the road, the dune, the sand, and that dark reef spreading underneath.

Reef through water and street detail on land are completely different problems in one exposure, and the 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro holds both. This is not the postcard Cottesloe, and that is the point — it means the most to the people who park in the same spot every morning.

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.
