Kick off your Sunday morning with great coffee and delicious bites during a relaxed brunch catchup at Sensations en Ardross, then grab your camera and head over to Wireless Hill Park with us.
Western Australia is home to an extraordinary variety of native flora found nowhere else on earth, with unique blooms feeding local wildlife all year round. Whether you just need to know what to look for or want to hone your macro skills, this walk will give you the chance to learn how to spot and capture these incredible plants. Wireless Hill is perfect for photography enthusiasts of all levels, featuring handy park plaques with pictures and species details to help identify your subjects as you shoot.
Bring your favourite lens, your curiosity, and your appetite.

Shutterpups stages regular themed shoots around the Perth metro and outer metro regions. Once a year we also plan a (long) weekend event further afield, such as at a WAPF photography conference. The main aims of our events is to grow your skills by socialising and interact with other photographers. No matter your experience or gear, there is always something new to learn. There are many different types of events, so there is sure to be one that suits your interest: fast-paced sports; gentle landscapes; macros; or seeing the world in monochrome – we try to make the events as varied as possible.
