Today’s post is a modern twist on an old fairytale – Thumbelina. I think there are some great ideas for a bridal shower here – and the whole shoot just has a fun, magical feel to it. From Crissy Farah (the photographer), When creating this shoot we wanted to do a modern twist on an old fairytale. Thumbelina just seemed to offer the best of all worlds since we could incorporate our love of over-sized things like flowers, dandelions, and strawberries, as well as adding that soft feminine fairytale charm. What we ultimately wanted was to create a realm that embodied childhood fantasy and brought imagination to life. Perfect for an afternoon with your girls!
