Filming and photography in Epping Forest
Epping Forest is a great location for outdoor filming and photographic shoots, providing a perfect backdrop of woodland scenery and much more.
Licences
We often host shoots for:
- Adverts
- Short and feature films
- TV programmes
- Music videos
- Studio shoots (portrait, safari-style or photography course shoots)
- Student projects
- And more
Why we require licences
Licensing is part of how we regulate filming and photography to make sure the Forest's conservation needs are considered during shoots, as well as the needs of visitors, nearby residents and other stakeholders. The process also ensures that shoots meet our health and safety requirements and other standards we're held to as an organisation. Thank you for your understanding.
