Photo shot on Wed. January 13th, 2010
(24 hours after the earthquake)
Christ-Roi, Port-au-Prince
———
I found today, from an old thumb-drive, my very first picture of Haiti I took with my old Sony 8MP point-and-shoot camera.
The day of the earthquake, like everyone else, still in disbelief, I slept right on the streets helping others. I was stuck to drive back home from my university, Sciences Humaines. The day after, I walked from Canapé-Vert to Delmas 75. Right on the hill of Christ-Roi, I saw this scene and grabbed my small camera to immortalize this moment of “hope”.
This picture is the shot that got me to realize I have an “eye” for visual storytelling. The genesis of an idea that later become #facesofhaiti (see link: instagram.com/facesofhaiti)
Few months later, this picture was sold to BBC UK and many other mainstream media for articles and highlights. It allowed me to afford my first professional camera to showcase beyond what common eyes can see. It was also the crowd’ favorite picture at the very first exhibit in Miami, 7 years later. In the meantime, I took this passion seriously and toured the world showcasing Haiti.
I am happy to find this picture. It shows me how far we’ve come and how farther we have to go to. Let’s do it together: L’Union Fait la Force • 🇭🇹

#BLACKHISTORYMONTH ✊🏿 | facesofhaiti
On the occasion of Black History Month, we want to highlight the participation of a prominent Haitian historical figure who gave the black movement a big boost.
Toussaint L’Ouverture will always remain a symbolic figure who gave hope, a remarkable figure who wanted to fight for this liberation movement.
As a revolutionary leader, Toussaint has always shown his political and military prowess for black causes. This helped him transform the slave rebellion into a revolutionary movement that would mark the whole world.
As a reminder, Toussaint L’Ouverture, also known as François-Dominique Toussaint L’Ouverture, was born on May 20, 1743. He was a Haitian general and one of the most important leaders of the Haitian revolution.
———— 🇭🇹 ————
Nan lokazyon Mwa Istwa ak Patrimwan Nwa yo, #facesofhaiti vle soulinye patisipasyon kèk figi nan listwa Ayisyen ki bay mouvman nwa yo gwo jarèt.
Toussaint ap toujou rete yon figi senbolik ki te bay lespwa, se yon pèsonaj remakab ki te vle pou batay pou mouvman liberasyon sa.
Antanke yon lidè revolisyonè, Toussaint te toujou montre konpetans politik ak militè li yo pou kòz nwa yo. Sa ki te ede li transfòme rebelyon esklav la an yon veritab mouvman revolisyonè ki ta pral make tout mond lan.
Pou rapèl, Toussaint L'Ouverture, « François-Dominique Toussaint L’Ouverture » ke yo rele tou Toussaint Bréda te fèt yon 20 Me nan lane 1743. Se te yon jeneral ayisyen epi youn nan lidè ki te pi enpòtan nan revolisyon ayisyen an.
