I’ve been working on a series of portraits of animated princesses, villainesses and a few other characters for over about a year and a half. I love working within the cosplay community as well as making beautiful portraiture and I’ve always been a bit of a nerd for animated movies, so this seemed like a fun and natural fit for me. I’ve still got more planned for this series, especially once I start on the Princes, but this is what has been created so far.
Each shoot takes a week or so to plan the wardrobe and styling, then we spend the day in studio to shoot a few hundred different poses and expressions and find the one that will work the best for each character. Then I send the files to my collaborator, Ruxandra, and she spends about a week painting all of the backdrops into the final version of each scene.
This series has been a great experience and has given rise to several more plans for the future in the same style.

The poses all looked very forced and photoshop was easy to spot. It was a good idea in theory.
