Labor day NYC 2025
The energy hits different when you’re repping the islands. The colors, the music, playing mas, the flags, it’s more than a parade, it’s culture, history, and pure Caribbean pride on display. From the road to the vibes, we celebrate where we come from and carried it loud. Forever proud to be Caribbean. ❤️💛💚
There’s nothing I cherish more than photographing my family. Photographing these moments allow me to hold onto the love, closeness, and memories we create together. These are the moments I’ll always treasure.

I always bring a camera on any trip, especially to Haiti.
Making images there just feels right. Going through these portraits takes me back to the moments they were made. I remember the exchanges, the atmosphere. It still makes me smile.
I love photographing in my country. Always have, always will.
Closing out the chapter on this year. It taught me a lot.
Being on set, and learning just as much when I wasn’t.
Making photographs, spending long hours on contact sheets, and really understanding what it is to make the work and put it into the world.
I had my first solo show, which I’m incredibly proud of.
I also spent time working on a very focused personal project, photographing over 60 individual portraits. A reminder of why I started, and who I’m making work for.
Grateful for a year of learning and growth.
Thankful to everyone who supported me this year.
Looking forward to the next one.
Born in Port-au-Prince, Frédéric Georges @fredericgeorges attended St. John’s University in New York, where he specialized in photography and directing. His work spans personal projects as well as fashion and editorial assignments that reflect a sensitivity to the people, places, and stories he encounters. Georges is interested in capturing moments of quiet intensity, exploring the passage of time, and fleeting emotions.
“Anba Solèy Lakay (Under The Sun of Home): Portrayal of Haiti” is an ongoing project that seeks to present Haiti beyond the limited narratives often shown in the media. Through his lens, Georges focuses on the everyday lives, landscapes, and moments that define the country’s unique character. The work also offers an intimate perspective rooted in George’s personal experience and memories of home. Each image speaks to the layers of beauty, complexity, and humanity that are often overlooked. The series invites viewers to see Haiti as Georges knows it, “a place of depth, life, and enduring spirit.”
