As every wedding is unique, Isabelle Carbonell takes an artistic and documentary approach to capture all facets of the event, with special attention devoted to the bride and groom’s story. Isabelle’s focus on photojournalism allows for a tale to unfold and later be relived in greater detail. Furthermore, Isabelle is very charismatic; posing for her is easy and she is able to work a crowd quickly and confidently while at the same time easily blending into the event background.
Isabelle is also a documentary filmmaker and photographer whose determination to give a voice to the voiceless has driven her to document political and social injustices around the world. With all the ambitions of an artist, she also employs her rigorous academic training as a researcher to produce an in-depth reportage. As a result, her films and photos reveal a complex social understanding while still offering an exquisite artistic vision.
Unique in her perspectives and methods, she also comes from a wide cultural background as half-Belgian and half-Uruguayan. Based out of Washington D.C. and Ann Arbor, MI, she recently graduated from the
Residential College at the University of Michigan with degrees in Environmental and Social Science, Photography and Filmmaking. Her documentary skills have taken her to countries such as Cuba, Mexico, Vietnam, and the Dominican Republic.
