Southport Photo Walk

Photographer Lucy Lumen led a Sunday morning photo walk through the eclectic streets of Southport, starting at the iconic former Town Hall building, then through Chinatown and beyond, finding art deco gems and the newly built structures that juxtapose them.

Along the way Lucy chatted about her photography process with 35mm film and how she goes about documenting the ever changing Gold Coast landscape.

Route:

  • Southport Library
  • Southport Courthouse 
  • Chinatown   
  • Tafe Building
  • Art Deco buildings
