As the wedding photographer, I had the honor of documenting the love-filled celebration of Darline and Gerson. Their journey began nineteen years ago when they crossed paths at university. After a few years of dating, they made the difficult decision to part ways and remain friends when Darline moved to Amsterdam for work. Despite the physical distance, their connection remained strong, and after a decade of friendship, fate intervened, reigniting the spark of romance between them.

On the wedding day, as I observed Darline and Gerson preparing for their ceremony, I couldn't help but be touched by their emotions. Gerson's nervousness was palpable as he confided in Tasneem, expressing his desire to be the best husband for his wife. This vulnerable moment captured in a photograph spoke volumes about the depth of his love and commitment. It was a reminder that even in moments of uncertainty, true love endures, and the promise of a lifetime together brings both excitement and nervousness.

The couple's wedding was a grand gathering of love and support. Family members from Haiti and friends from all corners of the world traveled to New Jersey to celebrate this momentous occasion. Every photograph I took during the festivities depicted the sheer joy and happiness that filled the air. From the vibrant cultural blend to the laughter and heartfelt conversations, the essence of their love story was beautifully reflected in every click of my camera shutter.

As I packed up my equipment at the end of the day, I marveled at the incredible privilege of witnessing and capturing such a remarkable love story. The photographs would serve as timeless reminders of the day Darline and Gerson took their vows, sealing their commitment to each other. It was an honor to be entrusted with the task of preserving their cherished memories, allowing their love to live on through the power of images.
