Happy Monday
(tuesday for some of my readers)
my lovelies!
it was an unusually busy weekend for me
and I am short of words
but abundant in visual
I thought I would share with you
some of the magic I captured this weekend
one event was a 15th Colombian birthday
in Colombia the 15th birthday is held high
a time when a young girl becomes a woman
and it is marked with a grand lavish celebration
I was asked to document this Canadian "down played" version
of this celebration....
*
the other
has the taste of Alice in Wonderland
only in this version
there is a fairy-god-mother,
having no daughters of her own,
borrows 5 princess daughters
belonging to some of the women
in her village
and once a year
takes them into a land
of magic and fairy dust....
*
so click on the music above (no words)
and enjoy a moment
in a land
where dreams do come true.
(winner to the "end of summer draw" announced below)

I hope you enjoyed that
there will be more to images to come
from "The Princess' down The Rabbit Hole"
And finally

I just love the way everything has been photographed here, like pages from a fairy tale book...Alice walking down a magical path, that lone chair, the mirror, the table decor, the sign "wrong way"{ we should take that way sometimes to see if it is indeed wrong, or not }, the table filled with cookies and cakes...and not to mention, the smiling face of the girl. Beautiful captures, All filled with wonder !
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations to the winner !

Ok I want more details of how they did this because I want to do this too! I LOVE it. So magical. HOw did they do the decor and such? Where did they find it? I think I could replica this but I would love to hear more. We need more celebrations and crazy teas in our life. Hey, I am solidifying plans for around thanksgiving and want to know when our magical meeting may take place so I can be here. Do you think you could email me in my new email with that info?
