The New Bardot: A fashion shoot inspired by the original babe of glamour

We made a pact early on to always integrate challenging, unique, shooting opportunities into our usual routine. I am a firm believer that it is critical to growth as an artist, prevent complacency, and keep the work fresh. This point in wedding season, it is more important than ever for us to mix it up, and I am so happy that we collaborated with our very talented, sweet friend, Candice of Jubilee Events to create “The New Bardot”.

Happy 30th Candice, you look stunning!

Her mark as an undeniable influence in beauty and fashion was made with tousled bedroom hair, a sultry come-hither stare, and pouty lips.

Brigitte Bardot is the ultimate sex kitten. The blond bombshell was once of the few European actresses to receive massive media attention in the United States. The film siren’s alluring presence was felt in the ’50s and ’60s. The seductive French import had a signature look that was emulated by numerous women across the world. The classic, unbelievably glamorous, iconic look we were creating had us all on enthusiasm overdrive – inspired to max capacity.
