Last year, Jirka Väätäinen, a student at Arts University College at Bournemouth in the UK, had the creative idea to bring Disney’s famous heroines to life using photo manipulation. The 22-year-old graphic design student combined photos of real women with cartoon characters using Photoshop and created digital paintings that brought Disney Princesses to real life.

After the overwhelming response to his previous collection of photos he has now added to his work with six more realistic princesses.

We’ve always loved the Disney princesses in a fairy tale sense, so we’ve never imagined they were real.
