Marysa & Philippe

An elopement on the countryside out of Montreal

It began on a crisp Autumn morning and there was a sense of calm in the air as I entered the Outremont home. I noticed the anticipation and joy on the bride’s smiling face. She held her hands gently on her lap as she sat waiting for her hair and makeup to be completed. The streaming sunlight from the window danced in the room as the sound of love songs gently played in the background. It was a beautiful start to the union of Philippe and Marysa, as they were about to embark on choosing one another till death do them a part.

Once the bride was ready, Philippe sat with a guitar in hand, tucked away in another room, at least for now. He wrote her a song, crafted each line carefully months prior, and he sat waiting to finally see his bride to share what he composed for her. As I captured their first look and watched Marysa walk towards Philippe, I noticed how each lyric was a story of their love. The song enveloped the air and the bride and groom solely focused on each other.

The morning began in Outremont and we then made our way to a hidden gem in Quebec. I captured their elopement amongst swaying trees and the sound of streaming water. We found ourselves deep within what felt like a magical forest to capture their intimate moment of saying “yes” to one another. They both prepared hand written vows and carefully read each line to one another. The stillness of the surrounding nature encompassed their pure love.

The day slowly came to end as the crisp air grew cooler and the dusk enveloped the forest. It was an honour for me to capture this elopement as the day was one of wonder and love.
