Register Your Property as a Shoot Location

Are you considering using your home or property as a location for photo shoots or filming? Registering your space with The Location Guys is a simple way to generate income while seeing your interiors brought to life in commercial and creative projects. We work with photographers, stylists, brands and production teams who are always on the lookout for inspiring, well-presented spaces across London and the UK.

A Fresh Opportunity for Your Property

You don’t need a Grand Designs-style build or a picture-perfect interior. Many of our most popular properties are well-maintained, filled with character, and offer something a little different. Whether you live in a modern townhouse, a countryside retreat, or a family home in the suburbs, your property could be just what a client is looking for.

Our portfolio is deliberately broad, offering a range of properties that includes traditional homes, commercial warehouses, and specialist studios. If your space has natural light, flexibility, and an appealing layout, it may be ideal for filming or photography.

What Makes a Great Location

We’re often asked what makes a home or property suitable as a location for a shoot. While each brief is different, there are a few key qualities that help a location stand out:

  • Good natural light throughout the day
  • Open, uncluttered rooms with space to work in
  • Thoughtful styling or attractive design details
  • Hard flooring, such as wood, concrete, or stone
  • Garden access or outdoor space
  • Reasonable access for crew and equipment

Parking is helpful, though not always necessary, especially in central London. Flexibility is important too. Shoots can last from a few hours to a full day, so owners who are open to working around different schedules are particularly valued.

Types of Property We Represent

We work with a wide range of locations, with properties categorised to help clients find the right match. Here’s a quick overview of what we currently offer.

London Location Homes

Our London homes portfolio includes contemporary flats, Victorian terraces, converted warehouses and period townhouses. From Crittall windows and polished concrete floors to original fireplaces and detailed panelling, these homes cover a range of styles and eras.

Country Location Homes

Outside of London, we feature a range of properties, from country cottages and modern barn conversions to listed estates and characterful farmhouses. These locations offer privacy, flexibility and room to accommodate larger productions.

Commercial and Industrial Spaces

We also represent commercial buildings and industrial-style locations. These include former factories, warehouses, retail spaces, and offices. Their raw textures and open layouts make them ideal for editorial and branded content shoots.

Photography Studios

Purpose-built studios offer a controlled environment for shoots. Some come with drive-in access, fixed coves, and a choice of backgrounds or props. Studios are especially useful for product photography or projects needing blackout conditions.

Location Homes Are Always in Demand

Real, lived-in homes are often precisely what clients are looking for. Brands want authentic settings that resonate with their target audience. A well-kept family kitchen, a colourful child’s bedroom, or a welcoming garden can all be strong selling points. You don’t need to style your home like a show home. As long as it’s clean, tidy and has visual appeal, it could be a great fit.

Steps to Register Your Property

If you’re ready to share your space, the first step is sending us some clear images.

  • Take full-room shots of your main spaces. Use natural light where possible.
  • Include photos of the front and back of your property, any garden or terrace, and any interesting features.
  • You don’t need professional photography at this stage. Smartphone images are fine, as long as they’re clear.

Once you’ve got your photos, email them along with a brief description of your property on the property registration page on our website. We’ll take a look and be in touch if your property is a good fit for our portfolio.

What Happens Next

If your property is accepted, we’ll work with you to create a complete listing. We’ll arrange professional photography if needed and gather the necessary information to share with our clients. You’ll be able to approve any bookings and set any conditions ahead of time.

Our team handles all the communication with clients, and we’re available to support you at every stage. We can advise on shoot timings, access arrangements, and any other matters that may arise. You remain in complete control of your property, and we’ll always ensure your space is treated with care and respect.

FAQs

Q: Do I need to leave during shoots?
It depends on the project. Some shoots work around you, while others may need full access. You’ll always be informed in advance.

Q: How long do shoots usually last?
This can range from half a day to multiple days. We’ll discuss the timing before confirming any booking.

Q: What happens if something is damaged?
We expect all clients to treat locations with care. We also recommend that you have appropriate insurance in place, and we can guide you through the process.

Q: How often will my property be used?
Some properties are in high demand, others get occasional bookings. It depends on the space, location and the needs of clients at the time.
