Every wedding has a story, but there’s something truly special about Madeleine and Ylly’s love story. I had the pleasure of capturing their engagement shoot and wedding. The connection to this couple came through a familiar source: Abbey, of BeYouDcor. Abbey, who served as their wedding planner, is actually someone I’ve known for years—we went to middle and high school together! It was such a full-circle moment when she referred me for her cousin Madeleine’s wedding.
The venue they chose was absolutely stunning. From the outdoor space to the breathtaking ceremony area, every corner of the property exuded elegance. The reception setup was one of my favorites—bright and airy with soft pastel tones, ivory accents, and touches of gold. It was the perfect blend of romantic and sophisticated, creating an atmosphere that felt both timeless and inviting.
Working with Madeleine and Ylly was such a rewarding experience. At first glance, they might seem a bit shy or reserved, but when they’re together, you can’t miss the connection between them. It’s in the subtle moments—the way they look at each other, the gentle laughter they share. Madeleine, in particular, was a dream client. She loved her photos and trusted me throughout the entire process, which made my job so much easier. When you have clients who appreciate your work, it allows for a creative flow that leads to exceptional results.
One of the most touching moments of the day was during the ceremony when Ylly became emotional. There’s something powerful about seeing a groom’s emotions come to the surface—moments like that remind me why I love documenting love stories. It wasn’t just about the couple, though; their entire family made the day unforgettable. The joy was unmistaken, especially during the reception when Madeleine and Ylly danced with their children during the first dance and the father-daughter dance. It was a beautiful reflection of their family’s deep bond.
As a Caribbean photographer, I especially enjoy capturing Haitian weddings. The vibrant music, the dancing, and the lively atmosphere always make for an amazing celebration. Haitian music has such a rich, rhythmic energy that keeps everyone on the dance floor—and I couldn’t help but smile and sway along as I captured those joyful moments.
Madeleine and Ylly’s wedding was filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. I’m grateful to have been a part of their special day and honored that Abby trusted me with such an important role in her cousin’s celebration. It’s weddings like this that remind me why I love what I do.
