Local photographer Amrit Grewal, the photographer behind the 9 stunning photographs that re-imagine Disney Princesses as Indian Brides photo series, said the idea originated to demonstrate how Disney can inspire multiple ethnicities’ aesthetics: “Being a part of the Vancouver wedding industry, a common occurrence of themes are the various Disney Princesses. Jasmine Nijjar, who worked as the Marketing Manager for Wellgroomed Designs, an Indian couture bridal gallery, conceptualised this project with brides in mind. With a need to show how mainstream Disney can migrate into other ethnicities, Jasmine built a theme that used each Disney princess movie as the inspiration all while integrating traditional Indian bridal wear. The photographs were originally carried in South Asian Bride Magazine. Here is Rapunzel in a sari.
