We're still collecting donations
On the 8th October 2020 we'd raised £5,040 with 30 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Lumiere London is in danger, we pledge help in exchange for Art-Fashion-Photo workshops to teach the unemployed in the London community

On the 8th October 2020 we'd raised £5,040 with 30 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
With the additional money, we will support young photographers, charity events, we also will offer our spaces for child care, writers and filmmakers, by offering our venues for meetings, workshops and film projects.
Lumiere London offers Venues and a creative roster of Artists delivering a non-corporate environment for meetings, exhibitions, photoshoots, product launches, private events, video clips, commercials, and conferences.
Last year we expand to new venues in central London, investing and refurbishing in the trust that our Clients will follow us to the new spaces in 2020.
As a venue, Lumiere London spaces closed in March due to the pandemic and our events will only be allowed to resume when the government deems it safe to start again, which currently is set for October 1st, 2020.
With 5 landlords for our central London, no grants, and many more expenses, our only hope is to remain open until we can start trading again.
OUR BACKGROUND
Fashion Photographer Carlos Lumiere founded Lumiere London Photo Film and events space in 2007 from his studio in London Bridge, Meniere Chocolate Factory, shooting for international magazines and clients such as Cacharel, Harrods, L'Oreal, Christian Lacroix, Royal Ascot, Longines, Harper's Bazaar and GQ to name a few.
Over the last years, Carlos has organized Photography workshops from his spacious studios, teaching his lighting technics and style briefs that make his photography stand out over the last decades attracting delegates from around the world.
OUR COMMITMENT TO THE YOUTH & UNEMPLOYED
For the past 13 years, Lumiere London has given numerous internships possibilities to national and international students
Today Lumiere London is also giving back by organizing Fashion photography workshops free of charge for young wannabe photographers, between the ages of 14 to 22, unemployed aspiring photographers and the elderly photography enthusiasts in the London community who might not be able to afford photography courses.
We believe that now more than ever people are in need to find new ways to connect with people and what better way than art and creation!
Lumiere London's incredibly creative and versatile Team is comprised of budding filmmakers, photographers, writers, and producers who come from all over the world such as China, India, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Dubai, Turkey, and the UK to say a few.
The team is the beating heart of Lumiere London and also the reason why we won the 'Best Venue Team of the Year 2018' and received numerous nominations, including 'Best Venue for Employing Women and Gender Equality’.
