I spend a lot of my working life as a Tower Bridge family photographer and I love it! It’s the top location I recommend to families booking a vacation photoshoot while on holiday in London. Not only is there the spectacular Tower Bridge, one of London’s most recognisable and stunning landmarks. There are also other lesser known areas close by, which work brilliantly for London family portraits. I took the lovely family in the photos below to all my favourite spots and we had such a fun time together.
Festive Tower Bridge
We met up at Hay’s Galleria, a beautiful covered area of shops and restaurants, and took some festive portraits in front of the huge Christmas tree. The young boy looked so smart, with his tartan bow tie, and was great to photograph, both with and without his parents. We then moved on to Tower Bridge itself and were lucky enough to discover a huge decorative reindeer, which we just had to include in some of the Tower Bridge vacation portraits.
Then it was on to one of my favourite streets in London – Shad Thames. With its cobbled street and converted Victorian warehouses, it provided a dramatic backdrop to more family portraits.
From there it was a short walk across Tower Bridge to the north side of the River Thames. We headed straight to the peaceful St Katharine Docks. Complete with a red telephone box and another huge Christmas tree, it was the perfect location to end this wonderful Tower Bridge vacation photography session!
