Looking for a change of scenery from Paris? Then London is where you need to be! The metropolis offers a jaunty, vibrant vibe everywhere you look, sure to recharge your senses and inspire you to be as daring and extravagant as the place you're in. Read below to check out our 5 picks for the coolest, most photogenic, must-not-miss spots in good ol' London!
Tower Bridge
Welcome to the world's most famous bridge! This architectural marvel will allow you to get the most incredible view of London, overlooking River Thames in all its glory. And guess what, you can more than just walk across the bridge or take photos from afar - you can now go go inside the bridge and view London from a walkway between the towers!
Waterloo
This famous London district has it all: theaters, public library, bridge, Georgian housing. The common thread between them? They're all gorgeous and will serve as the perfect backdrop for your photoshoot! Who knows, you might also bump into some famous actor or actress during their own shoot...
Big Ben
Although currently shut down for a four-year restoration work, there's no stopping Big Ben's timeless beauty. Be ready to be let down too: overseas visitors are not allowed to tour the clock tower. However, here's an equally fun tip: take a tour of the Houses of Parliament next to the Elizabeth Tower instead!
Hyde Park
Set right in the heart of London, Hyde Park offers both world-class events and concerts together with plenty of quiet places to relax and unwind. But that's not all! Here you will find a fountain named after the late Princess Diana and the gorgeous Lake Serpentine, whose beautiful view can be admired from a nearby waterside café.
Notting Hill
There is a reason why London's famous Notting Hill became the title and the backdrop of a successful film of the same name... it's as bright and beautiful as Julia Roberts' smile! From pastel-coloured houses, thriving markets and world-famous restaurants, there's simply no end to Notting Hill's charm.

The idea of getting someone professional to take your photos might not appeal to everyone, but here in SweetEscape we firmly believe that once you tried a SweetEscape session, you'd immediately fall in love with it and would want to book more. No, this is not a marketing campaign, it's a fact! Don't believe us? Check out these real stories from our real clients on why they love SweetEscape so much!
1. The First Timer
Our very own Creative Director, Jalu, wasn't really a big fan of being photographed. However, after 8 months of working in SweetEscape and (naturally) getting exposed to SweetEscape's beautiful photos in a lot of beautiful locations around the world, Jalu started to feel that maybe being photographed isn't such a bad idea after all.
So, for his family holiday in Tokyo this year-end, Jalu booked his first-ever session. What impressed him the most is how easy the booking process turned out to be–just through the app. His interesed was piqued even higher when he met the photographer who was very friendly and easy to converse with.
"I also noticed how professional their cameras and gears were! So it made me even more convinced that my photos would turn out to be great!" said Jalu.
When Jalu received the photos, he was surprised at how beautiful the photos turned out to be. His wife loved the session and the photos, his young daughter–which he feared wouldn't enjoy the shoot–also absolutely loved it, even he himself looked good in the photos!
"The photographers really know how to find the perfect angle for you, I never thought my photos would turn out these great!" said Jalu. "I absolutely love it, and I'd definitely book more sessions when I travel to other interesting locations in the future."
2. The 'Seasoned' Lovers
Sheena Buraga and her husband Daniel are truly one of the most unique clients SweetEscape had recently. Their 'Seasons of Love' pre-nup concept is really inspiring, and SweetEscape is proud and honoured to be a part of their love journey from the very start when Daniel first proposed to Sheena in Tokyo (spring), to their pre-nup shots in Nami Island (autumn) and Niseko (winter), and finally to their final pre-nup shot in Siargao (summer).
"Between May and June 2018 after the proposal, we started planning for our wedding. At first we thought that the photos in Tokyo would be our proposal / engagement photos, and we wanted to capture another pre-nup photoshoot, not with SweetEscape. But when seeing our proposal photos shot by SweetEscape, everybody said that our pre-nup shoots will look less beautiful compared to the super-beautiful photos of our proposal taken by SweetEscape! Considering this, and since we were travelling to Nami Island, South Korea in the autumn, we decided to create this 'Four Seasons of Love' pre-nup concept with SweetEscape!" said Sheena when asked about what made them keep taking their pre-nup shots with us.
3. The Reporter
TV reporter Najla Hilabi always puts an extra care for her Instagram feed; she wants it to look extra neat and beautiful, and this was her initial reason to use SweetEscape. After knowing about us from an Instagram ad, she decided to book her first session for her trip to Prague.
"I don't know if I'd ever go back to Prague again, so I thought it was important to capture my moments there with a proper photography service," said Najla.
What impressed her was eventhough there were some language barrier with the photographer, the photos still turned out beautiful, and the photographer brought her to the hidden gems of the already enchanting city. This, in addition to the beautiful photos she received afterwards, made her book another session for her recent trip to Tokyo.
"I feel that SweetEscape always maintains their standard of quality. You don't just get your raw photos, you get perfectly curated and professionally edited photos, and this careful production process really makes me love SweetEscape!"
