The latest 2014 [Cannes Film Festival](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiffinspired-food-beverage) featured well-dressed celebs clad in the latest designer fashions strutting their stuff down a red carpet in celebration of various film releases. Several talented photographers, including Vicent Desailly, decided to unconventionally capture celebs in a rather candid and intimate style.

The images shot by a slew of skilled photographers capture celebs on the red carpet fixing their dresses, gazing off into the distance or sharing intimate moments with their partners. Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, [Cate Blanchett](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uniqlo-taps-cate-blanchett), [Eva Green](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green) and Eva Longoria are just a few of the iconic actresses and actors captured in these stunning images.

The black and white color scheme of these photographs adds an ultra glamourous feel to these intimate images.
