Poisson-Blanc Regional Park
Poisson-Blanc Regional Park is the perfect spot for an elopement in the heart of nature.

Vineyards & Orchards
The vineyards and orchards of the Lower Laurentians offer much more than a dream backdrop for your elopement—it’s an experience in itself! Imagine starting the day with an intimate ceremony beneath flowering apple trees or among the sunlit vines. Then, enjoy a private tasting of local wines and ciders, a countryside picnic with local products, or even a romantic stroll through the apple orchards.

Who is Love is Nord?
We’re Josée and Patrick, a couple of photographers specializing in intimate weddings and elopements in nature everywhere in Quebec.
For years, we’ve traveled throughout the province, helping couples celebrate their love away from the beaten path.
We love the salty scent of the St Lawrence River just as much as the fresh aroma of the boreal forest after the rain. What excites us? Capturing authentic moments, whether with our feet in the water or hair in the wind, bathed in the golden light of a sunset. Because for us, a wedding isn’t a staged event – it’s a raw, intimate, and sincere moment that reflects who you truly are.
They were fantastic to work with and very flexible. Communication was excellent, and they were always quick to respond! We loved their personalities and relaxed approach. They were the perfect duo for our wedding day! The photos they took were absolutely gorgeous and reflected our couple perfectly.
Jessica & David
We felt listened to and well taken care of, without any pressure or obligation. We were particularly keen to avoid any form of stress: we succeeded! We wanted to get married our way: simple, relaxed and intimate. But we had no idea how to go about it. Love is Nord guided us through the planning process so we could make the right decisions for us. And the photos are absolutely gorgeous!
Annie & Dominic
We were looking for photographers for our wedding without really knowing what we wanted, other than something intimate in a beautiful setting. Josée and Patrick were more than just photographers... they advised us on a lot of little details. They really made the moment a success!
Gabrielle & Olivier
And we wouldn’t have it any other way!
