Filming and photography

UWA’s picturesque campus makes it a popular location for filming and photography.

With a diverse range of locations indoors and out, UWA has been the setting for many print and TV adverts, short films and student projects.

Four types of filming and photography are permitted on campus:

Private photography and filming: The University campus is open to the public to enjoy at any time. Non-commercial photography and filming for personal use is permitted provided it causes no disruption to others.
Photography as part of a campus wedding ceremony: Wedding ceremonies on campus include a complimentary one-hour photography ticket. Find out more about having your wedding ceremony at UWA.
Commercial photography for private use (such as wedding photography): Commercial photography for private use, whether by you or a photographer you engage, requires a photography ticket, which you can buy online. On the day, patrolling security staff will ask to see your ticket.
Photography tickets are only available when the University schedule allows. Exams, graduation ceremonies and other major events will take precedence. Tickets are valid for one hour on a specific day and there is a cap on the number of tickets issued each day. We recommend reading our Frequently Asked Questions.
All other commercial photography and filming: Contact University Theatres on 08 6488 7407 or [email protected] to discuss your needs. When the details of your request have been agreed, a location agreement must be signed and returned with payment prior to the filming date.
