Jaime Moore chose 5 women for Emma to impersonate, and thus her daughter became the mini version of Coco Chanel, Susan B. Anthony, Amelia Earhart, Helen Keller and Jane Goodall.
“I had been searching everywhere for new-creative inspiration for her 5 year pictures. I noticed quite a pattern of so many young girls dressing up as beautiful Disney Princesses. It started me thinking about all the REAL women for my daughter to know about and look up too, real women who without ever meeting Emma have changed her life for the better,” says Jaime.
“I wanted her to know the value of these amazing women who had gone against everything so she can now have everything. So let’s set aside the Barbie Dolls and the Disney Princesses for just a moment, and let’s show our girls the REAL women they can be,” she explained.

I absolutely love this and find it very inspiring. These are the role models girls need to look up too and the message that Jaime Moore is passing to her daughter is one of grace, power, influence and having pride in oneself.
LOVE IT!
