What an incredible experience it was to photograph this event! I can't express how grateful I am for the opportunity to attend an Enchanted Tea Party after such a long time. Hmmm, actually It's possible that I haven't attended one before, and even if I had, I would have been too shy at that age. Nevertheless, I was invited as a photographer to capture the enchanting story and capture priceless moments at this extraordinary event for Heart Kids Taranaki. Forty individuals eagerly anticipated meeting fairies and other fascinating characters who could bring a touch of magic into their lives.
Locating the event proved to be quite challenging since I was unfamiliar with the area. However, luck was on my side when I caught a glimpse of magical wings on the back of a fairy disappearing through a door. So, I followed the stairs and found myself at the Enchanted Tea Party spot. Who could have guessed that magic would guide my way?

This event brought together many people from different organisations to make it a reality. Rebecca Mende from Be Magicalwas my lucky catalyst and such a treat to work with and meet. Organisations involved were:
Piccolo Morso Bakery & Gelato Lounge catering
I loved the assignment challenge and with 40 kids and parents in one room, it was a tight spot to work my angles to capture their special story. I have selected a few images from the event that are my favorites. And if you can support the local business and of course Heart Kids Taranaki please help to promote their mission.
