Product Description

Yallingup Beach Framed Wall Art — Margaret River Region, WA

Looking back along the beach at Yallingup, the sand runs in one long unbroken curve with the town sitting up in the bush behind it and the water shifting from pale green over the sandbars out to deep blue. This is the view people picture when they think of the South West in summer.

Yallingup means "place of love" in the Noongar language, and it has earned the name twice over — as the birthplace of Western Australian surfing over a century ago, and as the beach generations of families have returned to every Christmas since. The heritage-listed Caves House Hotel, built in 1903, still sits in its gardens above the sand, and Canal Rocks and Ngilgi Cave are minutes away.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The entire image lives on that curve, so it was flown from far enough out to hold the whole sweep without distorting it — and the drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera keeps it sharp right across the full width at every print size.

The South West summer, framed

This is a piece with genuine warmth and recognition in it. The long horizontal curve suits living rooms, hallways, stairwells and holiday homes, and the palette of green, gold and blue works effortlessly with timber, rattan and natural fabrics.

For anyone whose family has a Yallingup history — the same rented house, the same stretch of sand, the same walk up to Caves House for dinner — this is that whole tradition in one frame.

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

Yallingup means place of love in Noongar, and after enough mornings here you stop questioning the name. This is where surfing in Western Australia actually began, more than a century ago, and the place still runs on that same easy rhythm.

For this frame I flew well out and looked back along the beach, because Yallingup's whole character is in that curve — the sand bending away, the town sitting up in the bush rather than on the sand, the water going pale green over the bars and then blue.

Shooting from distance is the only way to hold a curve like that without bending it out of shape, and it demands resolution to survive the crop. The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro keeps it sharp corner to corner. Caves House has been standing above this beach since 1903, watching this exact view. I just borrowed the better angle.

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.
