If you’re planning a trip to London with the love of your life, why not capture the memory in the best way possible? Have you considered creating a powerful one-of-a-kind testimony of your true feelings for each other? Whether you’re going on your first holiday together, celebrating a birthday, your engagement or wedding anniversary or just want to have a beautiful photographic memento of the two of you together to treasure forever, you can’t beat a professional photo shoot in one of the most iconic cities on Earth.
What does London mean to you? Does the city have a special significance for you or your partner? Maybe you’ve always been intrigued by this vibrant and beautiful metropolis, been in awe of its architecture and history, its vibe and culture old and new? It doesn’t really matter if your image of London is more picture postcard or urban grit, the city will be whatever you want it to be.
Now you have the opportunity to share your experience of this truly amazing place with your loving partner. Perfect for a special present or as a meaningful event you can both enjoy together, a London photoshoot can be one of the most romantic thing you’ll ever do.
Romantic landmarks in London are everywhere. There’s the splendour of Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament and, of course, the Tower of London – all of which would give you a spectacular backdrop to your romantic photoshoot.
If you prefer a more urban setting, head for the statue of Eros, the God of Love, at Piccadilly Circus, or one of the many vibrant markets – Borough Market or the Covent Garden both look stunning as a location for professional photography. Imagine colourful street art, iconic train stations or urban wastelands – every London scene makes a perfect backdrop for romantic couples looking for a memorable experience they’ll never forget.
Pose playfully with your other half in any of London’s lush green parks – from the wilderness of Richmond Park to Chelsea Physic Garden, London’s oldest botanic garden – and find the perfect romantic surroundings to showcase your love and affection for each other.
A professional photographer will first discuss with you exactly what sort of photography you would like, which locations you prefer and any other relevant details. Do also let them know if you are after romantic and moody images or have more fun and funky pics in mind. Your photographer will provide all the equipment necessary as well as the professional reassurance and guidance to put you at ease, so that you can truly enjoy the experience in the full knowledge that the results will be everything you wish for and more.
Once the photoshoot has taken place at the locations agreed between you, you’ll be able to pop into the studio to choose the images you wish to keep – and have them either in digital format or printed out for you to display straight away.
If you’ve always wanted to say ‘I love London’ at the same time as ‘I love you’, now is your chance to make your dream come true.
