Photo Series of a Young Girl Dressed Up as Great Women Throughout History

Photographer Jaime Moore‘s daughter Emma recently turned 5 years old. Naturally, being a photographer, Moore wanted to commemorate the event for her daughter by putting together a cute photo shoot for her, so she turned to the Internet for inspiration.

Much to her chagrin, however, something like 95 percent of the ideas she ran into were actually the same idea: how to dress up your 5-year-old as a Disney Princess. Moore wasn’t keen on that, so she went another way. Instead of dressing her daughter up as a made up ideal, an “unrealistic fantasy” as she put it, she chose to dress and pose her daughter as some of the greatest women throughout history.

The point was to convey to little Emma that she could be anything she wants to be. As Moore explains it on her blog:

My daughter wasn’t born into royalty, but she was born into a country where she can now vote, become a doctor, a pilot, an astronaut, or even President if she wants and that’s what REALLY matters.

Each photo is also captioned with an inspirational quote by the amazing woman it portrays. To see all of them in higher resolution and read more about Moore’s inspiration for the project, head over to her website by clicking here.

THIS ROCKS.

My first instinct was to snow her with some BS: “Oh, no, honey. You’re good at sports! You just have to keep trying!”

But I decided to tell her the truth, without embellishment, and I could see it stung a bit.

Love it. What a great dad!

This dad hacked Donkey Kong so his daughter could play as a female character. And we think that’s pretty awesome.
