Renee Doropoulos (b. 1980, Subiaco) is a Boorloo/Perth-based artist whose practice explores memory, place, environmental change, and cultural inheritance through analogue and digital photography, moving image, and camera-less darkroom processes, drawing on both historical photographic techniques and contemporary approaches.
Renee has exhibited in group exhibitions at Cheap Tongue Gallery (Walyalup/Fremantle, 2025), PS Art Space (Walyalup/Fremantle, 2019), Fringe World (Boorloo/Perth, 2017), the Perth Centre for Photography (Boorloo/Perth, 2016) and FotoFreo (Walyalup/Fremantle, 2006). Renee's work has been shortlisted for the City of Wanneroo Art Award (Wanneroo, 2026), the Iris Award (Perth, 2005, 2015, 2025), and the Mono Awards (2025), and has been featured in Terra Firma and Australian Photography. Renee is the recipient of the Emerging Artist Award at the City of Wanneroo Community Art Awards (2026).

COMMISSIONED PHOTOGRAPHY
I work with individuals, artists, and organisations who need thoughtful, high-quality photographic work that is both visually strong and context-aware.
My commissioned photography spans cultural, editorial, and institutional projects, including documentation and image-making for publication, archives, exhibitions, and public communication. I bring a considered approach to each brief, focusing on clarity, composition, and the specific purpose the images need to serve.
Clients often engage me for projects that require more than straightforward documentation. My background in cultural heritage and contemporary photographic practice means I understand how images function within larger stories, collections, and audiences, and I approach each commission with that broader context in mind.
My work has been used by cultural organisations and featured in museum publications and exhibitions, and I have exhibited my own photographic practice in curated group shows.
