Notting Hill, known for its pastel houses and Portobello Market, is one of London's most colourful neighbourhoods. Famous as a film location, it draws creators from around the world for fashion Reels and lifestyle shoots. Most of the colourful houses are private homes, so don't linger on doorsteps or make noise. The soft early-morning light is especially good.

Shoot the colourful houses and St Luke's Mews by around 8am while it's quiet, then move on to the market on Portobello Road. The market is busiest on Saturdays.
