Teddy Bear Tea Party Enchanted Storybook Photoshoot

Some of my favourite photoshoots are those that incorporate elements of fantasy, enchantment, storybook, and fairy tales into them.

It's easy enough to use elements of your favourite story book into a photoshoot, like the shoot I did with the beautiful Sakshi, which had a nod to the beautiful imagery in Alice in Wonderland. But you aren't limited to the use of visual imagery you've seen before, necessarily.

In this particular shoot, the lovely Christine picked out one of her favourite paisley dresses, all too cute for a storybook themed photoshoot, and did up her make up to look like a lovely doll.

With a lace picnic blanket, a cute little hand-painted children's chair, a lovely tea set to match her gown, and pearls galore, we had all our boxes checked for the perfect fairy tale inspired tea party with a cute little bear.

There isn't a thing I didn't love about this photoshoot. It was absolute perfection in terms of how customizable all the individual elements were to Christine's stunning aesthetic, focusing on elements that made her look like a princess and a storybook heroine all in one.

Since this shoot was so fun for us to do, I can't even begin to imagine how much joy and happiness a little girl might feel if we had her do a similarly themed photoshoot - custom tailored to her favourite toys, her favourite bits and pieces from her wardrobe, her favourite everything - crafted into one super fun, conceptual and romantic styled photoshoot that left her the center of her own fantasy universe.

A keepsake that I know for a fact I would treasure forever as a mother, and - truth be told - my inner child also knows I would have loved to have my favourite dress, accessories, toys, shoes, nail polish colour, and all sorts of other little details, immortalized in such a way.

I can also imagine a mother featuring side by side her daughter in beautiful images like this. Holding her hand, doing her hair, playing patty-cakes, making pinky promises, what a beautiful storybook dream.

To the little dreamer girl in all of us girls and women - no matter our age - what a perfectly fun and fantastical way to spend a moment in time, that's forever captured in beautiful, memorable imagery.
