FALLEN PRINCESSES

Dina Goldstein has really captured my attention with her Fallen Princesses photographs that take the conventional Happily Ever After Disney stories and put them into modern day perspective.
What if Disney kept it real with the little girls and showed them a not so happy outcome of an unfortunate life...


What if Princess Jasmine from Aladdin lived in the Middle East today...would she find herself in war zone defending her kingdom with an AK47?


What if Princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast lived in our youth-obsessed society, would she be regular at Dr. 90210 maintaining her "Belle" reputation?

A photograph that truly touched me and has left an unsettling dose of reality was a picture of Rapunzel...sitting on a hospital bed with her famous and lustrous braid by her side. What if Rapunzel had cancer and lost her hair during chemotherapy?
