Fairy Storybook Sessions
Step into a world of magic. Custom fairy storybook sessions transform your child into the hero of their very own fairy tale — with handcrafted costumes and whimsical sets.
Your Child's Story, Brought to Life
Every storybook session at IDTPhoto is built around your child's imagination. We don't use cookie-cutter sets or mass-produced costumes — Jane handcrafts custom pieces and David designs the scenes so every portrait is truly one-of-a-kind.

What ages are best for storybook sessions?
Children ages 2–12 tend to shine in these sessions, though we've created magical portraits for babies and teens too. We tailor the energy and pacing to your child's age and personality.
Do you provide the costumes and props?
Yes — we have a growing wardrobe of fairy wings, crowns, capes, wands, and themed props. Jane also handcrafts custom pieces for extra-special looks. You're also welcome to bring your own favorites.
Can siblings participate?
Absolutely! Siblings make storybook sessions even more magical. The Enchanted Chapter and The Full Story packages are designed for multi-child sessions.
How long does it take to get the photos?
Edited galleries are delivered within 2–3 business days. You'll receive a link to your private online gallery where you can view, download, and order prints.
Can shy or sensitive children do these sessions?
Yes — David and Jane are known for their patience and ability to connect with children who need extra warmth and time, including children on the autism spectrum. We never rush and always follow your child's lead.
