Choosing A Venue For Portrait Photography Melbourne
by Helene Norris
When making arrangements for portrait photography Melbourne, why not aim for something different, something outside the stuffy confines of a photographer's studio. Take a look around at some of the city's scenic areas and 19th century architecture for inspiration. Make your portrait memorable.
Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria, Australia. Situated at the top of a bend in the Yarra River. The river spills into Hobson's Bay, which in turn opens into Port Phillip Bay. Across the Bass Strait sits Tasmania. The entire metropolitan area encompasses 30 different municipalities in addition to the capital city itself. The greater metropolitan area has a population of around four and a half million people.
While the modern skyline of the city is a work of art in itself, especially at night, the city also has many structures from the 19th century that would serve as interesting backdrops to your personal photographs. Flinders Street Station, constructed in 1854 and became the first city station in the country. The current design of the station was inspired by the French Renaissance style of architecture and includes a clock tower and a large dome.
The Shrine of Remembrance on St Kilda Road was originally built as a memorial to the soldiers who lost their lives in World War I. Today, it memorializes all soldiers who served in all wars. It is one of the largest war memorials in the country. Based on classical style, its Greek roots are unmistakable. You can clearly see elements of the Parthenon in Athens and the Tomb of Mausolus.
If the subject of the portrait is a sports fan, then consider using Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) as a backdrop. Obviously, the only suitable attire is cricket whites. You will find the stadium off the Yarra River bend in Yarra Park. Nearby, closer to the river, is the Olympic Stadium. Compared to MCG, it looks no bigger than a high school swimming pool.
The ideal time to have your photograph taken at the Melbourne International Exhibition is when the tulips are in bloom. The perfect backdrop is in front of the fountain on the southern side of the building. The building was erected in the late 19th century in order to hold the Melbourne International Exhibition. Because it is one of the last such buildings of its time, it was designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage site.
This beautiful city has so much more to offer than lovely old buildings. Try Williamstown Botanic Garden for an area of natural outdoor beauty. The only problem you will have is deciding which of the beautiful exhibits to use as a backdrop. Here, you can try looking for your favorite plants or trees and sit for your photo there. Alternatively, just wander around, find a nice spot and shoot.

Who would want to be stuck in a dusty portrait studio when you have the whole of a great, wide, wonderful capital city.
