The Sydney Telstra 500 was Sydney’s premier racing event. Consisting of a range of races, shows, exhibitions, and games, it took up the entire Sydney Olympic Park and surrounding roads. This was its third year in Sydney.
We were there over the 3 days as Sydney Event Photographers to cover the races and other entertainment for The ONE Magazine. It was an exciting event, and also the first where we had to sign a life waiver at the door! There was media from all over Australia and the world covering the event, and it’s easy to see why. These powerful machines were amazing on TV, but when you’re standing an arm’s length away from them with a little concrete barrier in between, it’s a whole new level! Even though we are talking about thick concrete blocks, when a car brushes against it at high speed, the block will jump a few inches. If you are occupying those few inches at that time, it could mean serious injury.
There were several races, with the main ones being the V8 Supercars, Carrera Cup, Touring Car Masters, V8 Ute Series. We also had the Armor All Auto Show, a few parades of monster cars, and entertainment from The Rockettes and The Chillettes.

The Governor-General of Australia Sir Peter Cosgrove held a reception at Admiralty House for Lung Foundation Australia. Attending were a select number of staff, patients, and supporters of the charity. It was an event like no other!
It was an important event for the Lung Foundation, and they relied on Sydney Event Photographers to capture all the moments so they could use the photographs to promote the charity.
Admiralty House was an amazing heritage listed sandstone manor at the tip of Kirribilli. Along with Kirribilli House next door, their back garden has fantastic views of the harbour and Opera House. Every guest was amazed by the view!
The day started with some light speeches, then it was time to unwind to the afternoon sun.
