The Best Photo Shoot Venues in Manchester

There are plenty of venue discovery websites listing Manchester venues for a photo shoot, so what sets us apart?

Well, our experience for starters. We’ve had over one million users in our time, expanding from London firstly to towns across the UK and now to 20 cities internationally. Manchester is a city we care deeply about and we’re always striving to feature the very best spaces it has to offer. If there’s somewhere we need to include on our platform, let us know: [email protected].

We’ve got advanced filters to help narrow down your search in a flash, and we’ve got both a Matchmaker tool and a Concierge service if you don’t have the time to look properly.

VenueScanner saves you money at every turn. It’s free to use in the first place - with no search fees, transaction costs or booking charges - and we’ve got a lowest price guarantee. If you find the space listed for cheaper elsewhere, we’ll refund the difference.

Our platform has over 10,000 venue ratings published and we love showcasing hidden gems, so it’s easy to find a top quality, lesser known photo shoot location in Manchester using our service.

Where are the best photo shoot locations in Manchester?

We won’t call out specific venues - that’s for you to decide by yourself - but generally we find the most popular locations are blank canvas venues or photography studios themselves. The former gives photographers the chance to utilise the space exactly how they need, while photography studios come with all of the equipment and facilities required to achieve a job well done.

Other popular Manchester venues for a photo shoot include instantly recognisable landmarks - a great choice if your brand is Manchester-based itself - while the city’s many quirky venues can also offer an unforgettable backdrop for a photo shoot. 

How do I get started?

To begin your search for the best photo shoot venues for hire Manchester has to offer, just click here. This will give you a broad overview of the spaces available, but you can narrow down the search even further by applying some of our extra filters. These include date & time, number of guests, layout and budget.

Once you’ve found a space that catches your eye, click on its profile to see lots of additional data about it. You can see its capacity limits, lots of high res pictures, a description and the amenities it has available. A percentage ‘Would Book Again’ score lets you know how the venue has performed in the past.

It’s free to send a quick enquiry directly from our platform, and we guarantee a 100% refund of the first deposit on payments made through us (up to £500).

Of course, there’s more to our platform than photo shoot locations in Manchester. If you’re looking to search for a different event type - like a conference, meeting room, birthday party or team away day, for example - we’ve got lots of options available to you here as well. Here’s a little plug of our blog, too, which we regularly update with the latest trends and updates in the venue-finding sector.

What is VenueScanner Concierge?

If you’re searching for photo shoot venues for hire in Manchester and you’re from a corporate background, this could be of interest to you.

VenueScanner Concierge is a bespoke service for corporate event organisers. It’s also free to use. Simply tell us a little about the event you’re planning and a few of your venue preferences, and we’ll get to work on drawing up a selection of the most suitable spaces in the city.

We negotiate the best rates for you, keep everything 100% transparent, then curate one document with all the venue offers for you to review and compare. 

We can recommend trusted event suppliers if that’s something you need, and we aim to have you booked into a venue within a week of your first enquiry.
