Outdoor shooting
Generally, public areas do not need a permit for a simple private shoot or for things like same-day wedding photography, but it is your responsibility to ensure approval is not needed. Certain parks do require a location permit or booking, such as Royal Botanic Gardens, even for private shooting.
For more information see Apply for a filming or photography permit on City of Sydney website.
