About Two Baroque Girls

LEDA SALAZAR

Co-Founder, Floral Designer & Creative Director

Born and raised in Santa Fe, Leda Salazar brings the city’s rich artistic heritage and natural beauty directly into the heart of Two Baroque Girls. With a degree in Studio Arts and Art History, Leda is an artist in the truest sense—endlessly imaginative, deeply intuitive, and drawn to the emotional power of color, form, and visual storytelling.

Her work is shaped by a lifelong love of beautiful, curious, and evocative things: flowers that feel alive, unexpected color pairings, sculptural forms, and found objects with history and soul. Leda’s approach blends fine art sensibilities with a modern, editorial eye, resulting in floral compositions and design environments that feel both expressive and deeply refined.

As the daughter in this mother–daughter team, she brings youthful vibrancy and bold creativity to the studio. Her designs are often described as painterly—alive with movement, texture, and color—drawing from her background in art history, her passion for contemporary and classical works, and her fascination with the natural world.

Whether she is sketching a ceremony installation, sculpting a bouquet, or curating a tablescape, Leda approaches each project as an evolving artwork. Her vision is to create beauty that feels personal, meaningful, and transformative—beauty that lingers in memory long after the celebration has ended.

CYBELE CARPENTER

Co-Founder, Floral Designer & Creative Lead

Born and raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Cybele Carpenter is the mother in the mother–daughter team behind Two Baroque Girls. With academic degrees in Religious Studies, Evolutionary Anthropology, and Liberal Arts, her curiosity about the world has always shaped the way she sees beauty, structure, and design.

Cybele is inspired by classic aesthetics—timeless color palettes, balanced proportions, and the quiet elegance found in historic art and architecture. She has a particular love for patterns, ratios, and the golden mean, and she brings this sense of harmony into every floral composition and design plan.

As both a floral designer and the business lead for the studio, Cybele blends creativity with organization. She enjoys the practical side of running the business just as much as the artistic work, ensuring that the studio operates smoothly while staying true to its vision.

Her style leans toward the classic, refined, and thoughtfully composed. Whether arranging flowers, choosing linens, or shaping the overall design direction for a wedding, she works with intention and a steady appreciation for beautiful, well-made things
