Product Description

Yanchep Lagoon Art Print — Perth's Northern Coast, WA

The most abstract frame in the Yanchep Lagoon set. Dark reef fills the middle of the picture with white water washing across it, deep teal sits above, and clear green-turquoise lagoon water spreads below. No land, no horizon, no sky.

Read it as texture rather than a beach and it works like a painting. Most people take a second or two to work out what they are looking at.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Perth-based aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. A frame with no horizon depends entirely on fine detail, because there is no sky to carry it. The 100MP Hasselblad camera resolves reef structure, foam and the ripple on the lagoon floor in a single exposure that stays crisp at large format.

Composition first

Because it reads as composition rather than a holiday photograph, this piece suits modern rooms, studies, hallways, offices and architect-designed spaces, and sits comfortably beside contemporary furniture and abstract work. Most people don't guess aerial photography straight away, which tends to be the first thing anyone asks about it.

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

No land, no horizon, no sky. Just reef through the middle with white water washing over it, deep teal above and clear green lagoon below. Read it as texture and it stops being a beach photograph altogether.

This is the reef that makes the whole place work, photographed on its own terms rather than as background to a beach. Most people take a second to work out what they are looking at, and I like that.

Shot on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro with the 100MP Hasselblad camera. With no sky to carry it, a frame like this lives or dies on fine detail. Reef structure, foam and the ripple on the lagoon floor all had to survive to print size.

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.
