'Upskirt' fine for apprentice

An apprentice plumber who filmed up the skirt of a woman who had hired him to replace her oven has been fined $1500.

Taylor Harte, 18, was hired in November to perform the work at the woman's Cottesloe home.

Perth Magistrate's Court was told that as the woman was bending over to clean out the oven recess, Harte placed his iPhone up her skirt and began filming.

He was given a spent conviction.
