Princesses are all around us. You just need to know where to look.
Earlier today, the magical folks at Disney unveiled a photographic campaign titled #DreamBigPrincess with one very important goal.
It's time to encourage kids all around the world to dream big.
Nineteen renowned female photographers spanning 15 countries created inspiring images showcasing real-world girls and women. And while each photo tells an important story, there's an additional element that makes this campaign extra sweet.
The photographs are helping raise funds for Girl Up, the United Nations Foundation's program that supports adolescent girls' leadership and empowerment.
"The idea that stories, whether real life or fictional like those of Belle or Rapunzel, can inspire kids to follow their dreams is at the heart of the #DreamBigPrincess campaign," Disney Consumer Products chairman Jimmy Pitaro said in a statement. "We asked some of the most accomplished female photographers to help tell the stories of inspiring women and girls from around the world—and the results are incredible."
E! News received just a few of the many thoughtful, empowering images. We're happy to share them in our gallery below.
Readers at home can get involved today by posting a photo on social using #DreamBigPrincess. For every image, Disney Worldwide Services will donate $1 to Girl Up.
"Girl Up envisions a world where every girl can reach her full potential and be an advocate within her community for positive change and empowerment," Girl Up director Melissa Kilby shared. "The #DreamBigPrincess campaign is perfectly aligned with our goals and we're excited to partner with Disney and this incredible group of women to spotlight what it means to dream big around the world."
