Funeral Live Streaming, Photography & Videography in Kensington & Chelsea | London
I'm Shaun, and I provide professional funeral live streaming, funeral photography and funeral videography across the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea — from the London Oratory on Brompton Road to Brompton Cemetery, the churches of Chelsea and Kensington, and crematoriums serving families across SW3, SW5, SW7 and the surrounding area.
Kensington and Chelsea is home to some of the most significant Catholic and Anglican churches in London, as well as one of the city's great Victorian cemeteries. I have covered funerals across this borough and understand what each of these venues requires — in terms of camera positioning, audio, discretion, and the specific protocols that major historic churches expect.
A Real Kensington Funeral — Catholic Mass at The London Oratory
One of the most architecturally significant funerals I have covered in London took place at The London Oratory on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge — one of the finest Catholic churches in England, with one of the widest naves of any Catholic building in the country.
I provided funeral live streaming with three cameras — two inside the Oratory and my colleague Patrick filming the arrival procession on Brompton Road — for a Catholic Mass where only 25 mourners could attend in person. Over 171 viewers across 9 countries joined live, including family in the USA, Australia and throughout Europe.

The London Oratory, Brompton Road SW7 — one of England's most significant Catholic churches, with a complex interior acoustic and specific camera placement requirements. I have provided streaming here and understand the building and its protocols well.

Chelsea Funeral Directors — Working With Local Professionals
I have worked alongside Chelsea Funeral Directors on a number of services in this area, including the Catholic funeral at Westminster Cathedral documented in my Westminster Cathedral funeral photography case study. Chelsea Funeral Directors are one of London's most respected independent funeral homes, and coordination with them is always smooth and professional.
If your funeral director is based in Kensington or Chelsea, I am familiar with how they work and happy to liaise with them directly so the family has nothing extra to manage.
