Three locations that suit this kind of shoot, each with its own permission rules:
The full list is on London photoshoot locations, with the authority for each one.

Mariya's verdict. Book the location before the guests. Changing a date is easy, changing a permit is not.
The product frames are the ones that survive the campaign, and they need a quiet set.
An hour before doors, with the lighting still in place, covers most of what the brand will use afterwards.
Agree the usage rights at the same time as the date. It is harder to agree them later.
| When | What is photographed | Why it is placed there |
|---|---|---|
| Set build | Product on set, lighting fixed | Before doors, always |

| Team and founder | Portraits against the set | Fifteen minutes, agreed in advance |
| Doors open | Guests, room, reactions | Candid |
| Speeches | Fixed position | Happens once |
