FREE ❤️ Valentine’s Portraits – London South Bank 📸
Details
Join us for a global moment. 🗓️
❤️ On Feb 14th, London joins other cities all over the world—from Barcelona to New York—to capture real human connection. 🌍
📸 Photographers/Videographers of all levels—whether you’re shooting Digital, Film, Polaroid, or just starting out as a hobbyist. 🥰 This is your playground to practice portraiture, test new gear, and swap tips with fellow photographers in a high-energy, real-world setting. ✨
⚠️ Note: "No tripods, no external flash stands." Keep it handheld. If the police ask, we are a "Social Meetup of Friends," not a "Production." 🤝
💖 Calling all locals and visitors—couples, soulmates, and besties—who are happy to step in front of the lens. 📸 Help us document love and friendship in our city as part of a worldwide photo project. ❤️ Your story is at the heart of the movement. 💞
✨ How it Works
📱 Join our WhatsApp group: It's very important to join to get last-minute updates and the live location during the event.
📸 Follow us on Instagram: @takeaphotowalkcommunity where you'll find more information about our next events, as well as photos of the group and our walks.
📍 Meet Up: Head to Starbucks at the scheduled time (3pm). Just look for the group with the cameras!
🕒 For late comers: The Photo location will be at South Bank (Under Bridge)
👋 Connect: This is a social mixer. Pair up with photographers and participants for quick, collaborative mini-sessions.
🎭 Let´s Play: It’s all about the vibe! Photographers—this is your playground to try a new lens or technique. Participants—just bring your best energy!
🤳 The Backup Plan: No photographer in sight? No problem! Don’t let those outfits go to waste. Find a fellow duo nearby and "Swap a Shot"—play paparazzi for each other or grab a killer selfie and tag us.
🌍 Global Gallery: Tag @takeaphotowalkcommunity on Instagram and use #takeaphotowalklondon.
🌟 Selected shots will be featured in our official "Love in Focus" global gallery for the whole world to see!
✅ By participating, you agree to your photo being part of the Global Gallery. Follow @takeaphotowalkcommunity on IG to find your shot.
