This episode is specifically for the elopement photographers out there listening. You've probably shot elopements in the same location many times, and you know that place like the back of your hand, but what about the locations you're less familiar with? How can you figure out the best location for your couple?
It's so much more than just finding the right location. It's about figuring out the parking, knowing when and where you will get the best lighting, alternative trails if one doesn't work out, if it's pet friendly or not, and more.
We are sharing our best tips for how to choose the ideal location for each of your couples, including the detailed research we do, going to the physical location, and the tools we've used in the process. We also delve into the importance of really understanding what your couple is looking for so you can align the location with their vision.
In this episode, we chat about:
- Why location scouting is important
- The online tools we use to help in the initial stages of location scouting
- Taking the time to actually visit the location and why this is so beneficial
- Giving your couples a questionnaire so you can truly understand their vision
- How we use technology to know the optimal lighting
- Things to do the day of the elopement to make it a seamless and enjoyable experience for your couples

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
