Location Homes That Work for Family Brand Shoots

Family homes offer a unique kind of warmth and familiarity that many commercial shoots benefit from. Whether the focus is on interiors, lifestyle, fashion or parenting, settings that feel real and lived-in can help bring brand stories to life in a way that studio sets simply can’t. At The Location Guys, we’ve carefully curated a collection of family homes across London that are as visually striking as they are practical for production.

These location properties combine the everyday with the exceptional, giving brands a chance to shoot in spaces that feel authentic without compromising on style, light or layout. From period homes with original features to contemporary family houses filled with character, each location is carefully selected for its strong design, thoughtful layout, and production-friendly access.

Family Homes Work for Brands

Shooting in a family location home offers a level of relatability that resonates with real audiences. Many of the homes in our collection have been thoughtfully renovated to reflect modern family life, with open-plan kitchens, large dining areas, multiple bedrooms and garden spaces that are ready to support a wide variety of creative briefs.

These homes are more than just attractive backdrops. They are spaces that offer:

  • Natural light and generous proportions
  • Flexible layouts for crew movement
  • Contemporary or classic styling suitable for a range of brands
  • Access to gardens and outdoor living areas
  • Multiple bathrooms, bedrooms and zones to support different set-ups

Each home is well-maintained and ready to shoot, with details that make all the difference on set, such as off-street parking, wide doorways, and quiet residential surroundings.

Design-Led And Production-Friendly

Our family location homes are chosen not only for their visual appeal, but also for their ease of use on shoot days. Many are owned by creatives, designers or architects, which means they are styled to a high standard, with layouts that allow for smooth filming and photography. Open plan rooms, neutral palettes, and versatile living spaces help adapt the home to suit your brand’s tone and style.
