The best places for family photos in Manchester
Photography studios are a good choice for family photography because they are comfortable regardless of the weather conditions. You'll have access to studio backdrops, perfect lighting, and props to convey the narrative. That could mean a Christmas tree with presents for your children to sit under or a vintage sofa to seat the entire family.
Local restaurants like Evelyn’s Cafe and Bar are filled with lovely green plants that serve as a perfectly photogenic photoshoot location. Have breakfast or brunch with the family and then spend an hour being photographed, conveying a lifestyle narrative to viewers. You can also choose more upscale dining if you want the family photos to reflect that atmosphere. Rooftop restaurants, Italian restaurants, and banquet halls all offer an environment suitable for a special photo event.
Instagrammable spots in Manchester also offer beautiful backgrounds for family photography. John Rylands Library is a historic building with soaring ceilings and a quiet interior. The Northern Quarter of Manchester is also home to street art in the form of mosaics and spray paint work. Families gather in front of these public artworks daily as an urban outdoor photoshoot location.
Capture family photos in Manchester parks
If you want a space with cultivated trees and flowers, consider a botanical garden. One of our favorites is the Fletcher Moss Botanical Gardens, an award-winning horticultural space recognized by the Royal Horticultural Society for its beauty. Be sure to inquire with the Gardens before holding a family photoshoot here. You may need a photography permit for any commercial activities!
