Photography & Videography/Filming

CAPTURE UNIQUE FILM/PHOTOS

The Museum welcomes the public and the media in the museum galleries and collections, and we try to accommodate requests to photograph, videotape, or film in the galleries, heritage sites, and gardens whenever possible.

The museum allows researchers, filmmakers, photographers and influencers to photograph objects or exhibits or use the buildings as a backdrop only with prior permission from the Museum, and with the payment of a fee.

Photographers using the front steps of the Flatiron Building for photography can call the museum in advance of their photography session to have posters removed from the doors and the front steps swept. The Lacombe Museum does not charge for this. Donations of course are appreciated.
