[ Princess in the Park ]

We think, sometimes, there’s not a dragon left. Not one brave knight, not a single princess gliding through secret forests, enchanting deer and butterflies with her smile. What a pleasure to be wrong. Princesses, knights, enchantments and dragons, mystery and adventure …not only are they here-and-now, they’re all that ever lived on earth!
-Richard Bach, The Bridge Across Forever, preface, 1984

A child’s imagination is one of the most unique and endearing attributes of childhood innocence. The ability to believe in invisible friends, Ever After, and Neverneverland creates the most humbling displays of faith and trust. It is this precious imagination that so endears us to the wonders of youth. And it is the most mournful time when a child is forced to outgrown this childlike belief in fairytales.

On a mission to help regain childhood fantasy for local children, Sarah Anne Photography has teamed up with DFW’s Pretty Princess Parties to bring you our annual Princess in the Park charity event. Scheduled for October 31st 2009, Princess in the Park is a fun fantasy event catered to all the princesses in our lives. The 4 hour event features some of the classic fairytale princesses available for your child(ren) to meet and see in person.

The event is $15 per child with 100% of the net proceeds going towards the Princess Alexa Foundation to benefit children right in our own neighborhoods. Each ticket holder will receive 10 minutes one on one with a classic princess and one 5×7 art print* from the event to remember this special occasion. Your child will also receive a special princess accessory to keep. Since this event is scheduled for Halloween day, she can even come already dressed in her very own Princess costume for the pictures if you so choose.

2009 Princess in the Park event will be held at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens from 10AM until 2PM.
