Mate, did a shoot recently in a old factory. The slazenger/dunlop factory in Botany. Was excellent. Heaps of room and some truly excellent grafitti work also.
2x D700, 2x D2h, lenses, speedlights, studio, pelican cases, tripods, monopods, patridges, pear trees etc etc

Thanks for that mate...it sounds like that location would be great for an urban-look shoot....but im probably looking for something a bit more intimate,thats why i thought of an old house.

this is probably a bit far for you but in Maquarie fields (near Campbelltown) there is an old house - i've only ever seen it from the train (its across the train station) but from the outside it looks run down and partially burnt. it has a nice feel to it. I've often thought about taking some snaps down there. Its not fenced off or anything. But yes i dont think it meets the sydney metro area ctiteira sorry.
