ABOUT

A ‘PRIVATE’ SUNRISE OR SUNSET PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE FROM THE SOUTH-EAST PYLON OF THE SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE.


Experience the magic of Golden Hour (sunrise or sunset) from the Gun Deck on top of the South-East Pylon of the Sydney Harbour Bridge (not usually open to the public), one of Sydney’s coolest and most iconic locations.

This exclusive 2-hour session is designed to meet your specific photography needs, whether you’re a complete beginner or a more experienced shooter. Your expert instructor will customise the training to focus on your preferred learning outcomes, ensuring you get the most out of this unique experience.

Perfect for individuals, couples, or small groups, this private photography experience allows you to enjoy personalised instruction and the best views in Sydney, without the crowds. Capture the stunning light of golden hour with 360degree views of Sydney Harbour, Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and city skyline as your backdrop.

At the conclusion of your personally tailored experience, stay on and enjoy a complimentary drink and light refreshments with your private photography tutor and celebrate the beauty of one the world’s most photogenic cities.

Spaces are available at short notice, so get in touch today and photograph Sydney in its most magical light.
