Family & Headshot Photographer Barbican

The Barbican is fast becoming my new favourite spot for taking shoots. It’s such a majestic building, and there’s such variety in the walkways, the planted areas, the water features, the leading lines and perspective of the stairways.

The building seems to bring out the big kid in everyone – it’s so much fun exploring the structures and incorporating its features into the shots. This all makes for really varied photographs, with striking angles and interesting compositions.

I also love the Barbican for offering so many wet weather options! If it’s drizzly, we can hide out under a covered walkway and take photographs under cover. When the drizzle clears up, we can dart out again to the more open areas.

For those lucky enough to live in the Barbican, the resident’s garden also makes for a great location – the stunning tree, and uninterrupted view of the balconies are great for photographs.

As the colours of the Barbican are fairly dark, it’s well worth wearing lighter or brighter colours to bring a splash of colour to your photographs.

If you’ve got particular spots that you love or that really mean something to you, we can absolutely use those for the photographs.

What I would give to live in the Barbican!

We are thrilled with the photos! We found the photo shoot experience fun and relaxed, as well as very professional. Clearly Louise has a lot of experience in getting the best out of children.”
