Let's be honest, you can visit the 12 Apostles a hundred times and still find yourself completely blown away. There's something about those ancient limestone stacks standing tall against the wild Southern Ocean that never gets old.
If you've stood at that lookout, felt that coastal breeze, and wished you could bottle that feeling, well, that's exactly why I created these prints.
Why the 12 Apostles Never Gets Old
I've been photographing Victoria's coastline for a decade now, and the 12 Apostles remains one of my favourite spots to chase the light. Every sunrise is different. Every storm brings new drama. Every calm day reveals something you hadn't noticed before.
The 12 Apostles Art Print I captures that timeless quality, the reason this stretch of the Great Ocean Road draws visitors from around the world. But here's the thing: this isn't just another tourist snap. I waited for the right conditions, the perfect light, to create something you'd actually want on your wall for years to come.
And if you're after something with a bit more grunt, the 12 Apostles Art Print II is all about the raw power of this coastline. Big cliffs. Wild ocean. Legendary stuff.
More Than Just a Pretty Picture
Here's what sets these prints apart from the mass-produced stuff you'll find at the big retailers: these are real moments I've captured personally. No stock images. No random photographer's work. Just me, my camera, and a whole lot of patience waiting for the conditions to align.
Every print is made to order right here in Australia. The frames? FSC certified sustainable timber, because if we're celebrating our coast, we should probably look after it too. And they arrive ready to hang straight out of the box, which is always a bonus.
Choosing the Right Size for Your Space
The beauty of these prints is they work in pretty much any room. Going for a subtle touch in your study? The Medium size (42 x 59.4cm) is perfect. Want to make a proper statement in your living room? Go Large (59.4 x 84.1cm) or even XL (84.1 x 118.9cm).
And if you're really committed to bringing the coast home, the EPIC size (100 x 150cm, that's 1.5 metres wide) turns your wall into a window overlooking the Southern Ocean. Check out the full size guide to see what'll work best in your space.
Frame Options That Actually Matter
Look, I get it. Choosing frames can be overwhelming. That's why I keep it simple with options that actually make sense:
- Unframed prints if you've got your own framing sorted
- Classic framed prints for a clean, timeless look
- Framed canvas prints for that gallery feel
- Shadow box frames for extra depth
- Premium shadow box with Tru Vue glass for the ultimate finish

Supporting Small, Thinking Local
When you grab one of these prints, you're not just getting wall art. You're supporting a small Australian business based right here in Geelong. Every order helps me keep doing what I love: exploring our incredible coastline and capturing it for people who love it as much as I do.
Plus, free shipping Australia-wide means no surprises at checkout. What you see is what you pay.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who takes the photos for Local Breaks?
That'd be me, Sam Piasente. I'm the owner and sole photographer. Every single image on the site is one I've shot personally over the past 10 years of exploring Victoria and Queensland's coast. No stock images, no other photographers, just my work.
What's the largest size available for 12 Apostles prints?
The largest size is EPIC: 100 x 150cm (1.5 metres wide). It's a proper statement piece that works beautifully in living rooms, dining areas, or anywhere you want to create a real focal point. Check the size guide for all available dimensions.
Can I pick up my order from Geelong?
Nah, everything's print to order and ships directly to you. But the good news is shipping is free Australia-wide, so it'll arrive at your door without any extra cost.
Are the frames sustainably sourced?
Absolutely. All frames use FSC certified timber from sustainably managed forests. If we're celebrating our beautiful coastline, it makes sense to look after the environment while doing it.
