PHOTO SHOOT LOCATION

The Unusual Brussels

Photographers in Brussels are always hunting for locations that don't look like every other studio or cafe. If your looking for a photo shoot location in Brussels with actual character, The Unusual on Warmoesberg 49 has become one of the citys best-kept secrets for shoots.

The venue has moody ambient lighting, a disco ball, textured walls, booth seating, a bar backdrop, and a stage — every corner is a different setup. Fashion photographers, brand photographers, portrait photographers, and even wedding photographers have shot here. The lighting is naturally dramatic, which means you spend less time setting up and more time actually shooting.

A fashion brand from Antwerp came down to shoot their lookbook in our upstairs space. They used the DJ booth, the stage, and the bar as backdrops — three totally different looks without leaving the venue. The photographer said "its like having three locations in one." We'll take that as a compliment.

Photo shoot location options in Brussels centre are limited unless you want a plain white studio. The Unusual gives you texture, color, depth, and atmosphere. The disco ball creates amazing light patterns. The booth seating adds a retro lounge feel. The stage area has a rock-and-roll vibe. Mix and match depending on what you're shooting.

We rent the space for photo shoots during business hours and non-business hours. Pricing is the same as event rental — check our private event hosting page for details or just DM us on Instagram @theunusual.brussels.
