The Louvre
Structure & silhouette
Pale stone, repeated lines and controlled negative space gave the first part of the session its precise, magazine-like architecture.

American artist and creative personality Candice Craig — known online as @candice — photographed with Omar Bolden from the Louvre to the Eiffel Tower.
01 — The cover story
Candice Craig arrived in Paris with Omar Bolden for a couple session conceived less like a traditional engagement shoot and more like a contemporary fashion story. The visual direction combined the pale geometry of the Louvre, sharp silhouettes, movement and the unmistakable scale of the Eiffel Tower.
Known in the United States for a career spanning music, dance, screen and digital culture — including her time with Girls United on The X Factor USA — Candice brought an instinctive sense of performance to the photographs. The result feels polished without becoming static: confident, graphic and alive.
This page is built around that energy. It is not simply a record of Paris landmarks, but a portrait of @candice and Omar moving through the city with a distinctly editorial point of view.

03 — The profile
Singer · Dancer · Creative
Candice is an American artist whose visual presence feels naturally connected to fashion imagery. Rather than over-directing the session, the approach was to create a strong framework — light, architecture, pace and silhouette — and let her performance instinct shape each frame.
At the Louvre, the photographs became graphic and controlled. Around the Eiffel Tower, they opened into something more spontaneous. Together, the two locations created one coherent editorial narrative.

“Not a postcard.
A Paris fashion story.”
05 — The visual language
Pale stone, repeated lines and controlled negative space gave the first part of the session its precise, magazine-like architecture.
Candice’s background in performance allowed the direction to stay minimal: strong posture, clear movement and a confident relationship with the lens.
The second location expanded the story with wider frames, movement and unmistakable Paris context without losing the editorial rhythm.
06 — Creative direction
The Louvre and Eiffel Tower were not treated as tourist backdrops. Each location had a specific role: the Louvre for precision, symmetry and silhouette; Trocadéro for scale, movement and release.
The session used clean prompts, changes of pace and intentional framing. Some photographs are highly composed; others feel almost like stills pulled from a campaign film.
The layout mirrors the session itself: oversized type, sharp black-and-ivory contrast, irregular image proportions and concise copy. The goal is to make the photographs feel published rather than simply displayed.
