Make your property work for you by turning it into a sought-after shoot location with The Location Guys.
Register as a Shoot Location
Did you know that your most treasured asset, which you’ve invested so much time and money in, could give you a steady income in return?
Countless hours have been spent choosing the perfect wall colours, kitchen cabinets, flooring options, furnishings, and artwork to create a stylish home that impresses everyone who visits. But why stop there?
You don’t have to! We urge you to contact us if you have a beautiful property that you think could serve as a shoot location. You could be earning ££££’s every week!
Being a shoot location can be fun and financially rewarding, but not all homes will cut it. Our portfolio is centred around inspirational properties, with the occasional ‘unusual’ location thrown in for good measure.
What We Look For in a Location
Our portfolio is filled with design-led interiors and architecturally detailed properties, but you don’t need a Grand Designs home to be a successful shoot location. Here are some key features we look for:
Access:
Good road and rail access is essential. While parking is a huge bonus, it’s not necessary for central London properties.
Decor:
Attractive furnishings that can be used as props are a plus. Minimal and neutral designs are popular as they offer greater flexibility for brands to transform the space.
Floors:
Hard floors are in high demand, particularly wood, parquet, stone, concrete, or painted wood. Unique flooring, like a 60’s shag carpet masterpiece, can also be appealing.
Natural Light:
Ample natural light is crucial. Large windows and well-lit spaces are highly desirable for most shoots.
Special Features:
Spacious living areas, large kitchens with good natural light (a hob in the island is always a bonus!), and well-appointed bathrooms (freestanding or roll-top baths are a regular request).
How to Submit Your Property
If you believe your property has what it takes to become a popular shoot location, here’s how you can get started:
Photographs:
Take a good selection of both interior and exterior photographs. These should showcase full rooms to give us a comprehensive view of your property. Smartphone images are perfectly fine at this stage.
