✨Consider adding on a fairy picnic box, real unicorn ride or private mermaid encounter where your little one will be transformed into a mermaid during a photoshoot! 

🧜‍♀️ Mermaid Portraits:

An available add on is a private Mermaid Encounter and Portrait Session. During this private 15 minute experience, each child will spend one on one time with a mermaid they discover by an enchanted river trail. With the help of the mermaid’s photographer friend they too will transform into a mermaid for a photoshoot where we will capture the magical moment in a mini portrait session. The experience includes a magical glitter makeover and a special keepsake necklace. 

We encourage our participants to arrive at their session ready in their own top of choice. We will contact in advance to get sizing information about the tail they will use on the day.

🦄 Unicorn Lead Ride:

Within your 15 minute time slot take a gentle stroll upon one of our gorgeous unicorns with the help of one of the fairies. We encourage each participant to make their way to the round yard area before their riding session begins. Each child must be under 35 kilos to participate in the rides. *Please note the ride isn't for the entire 15 minutes as other riders are also booked for the same session time.
