New Princess Photos featuring Lanie

Last night I was up late doing a glamorous photo shoot with Princess Lanie.  Lanie's been with Fire Pixie since 2008 and has done over 300 shows for us in that time.  She's been getting so much amazing feedback from clients lately, and has updated some of her gorgeous costumes to make them even fancier.. so we spent all evening dressing up, videotaping, and photo shooting.  We didn't finish until midnight!  But the results are stunning...

I'm having a lot of fun this morning photo shopping her into my favorite Princess Fantasy locations.  It's a joy to work with such a gorgeous model and end up with such beautiful results!

 Here she is as Princess Belle, lookin' fancy.. Lanie says Belle is her favorite Princess to play.

Here she is as Sleeping Beauty.  We got some video of her singing too, and it's just delightful.

Here she is as Rapunzel.  I love the mischievous look on her face in this photo!

We also took updated Elf and Fairy pictures, since her new fairy dress is so much fancier than her old one and since Christmas is on its way.  (Did you know we're having a Holiday Special?  Coupon code is "ELF ME" for $10 off any Christmas character!)

The last thing we did was shoot some video of Lanie's puppet show, which was delightful to watch (although we did rather get the giggles, considering it was almost midnight!)  I haven't had a chance to go through the video yet, but here's a snapshot of her new Puppet Theater!

Christmas Elves and Singing Princesses

Christmas is fast approaching!  All the Fire Pixie elves are out this week.. we're entertaining at holiday parties and Christmas-themed birthday parties all over the place, and having an absolute blast.

I love doing sing-a-longs this time of year because there are just so many fun Christmas carols to sing, and the kids are all so very enthusiastic about singing them.  I can't seem to remember all the words to Frosty the Snowman (I keep forgetting the "thumpety-thump thump" bit) but it seems nobody else knows the words to that one either... so we just fake it.  

Besides, when you're dressed as an Elf, if you sing with authority, nobody questions your version of the lyrics.  :)

My favorite thing about doing holiday shows is that lots of people book 2, 3, or 4 entertainers at once.  Being a part of a whole gaggle of Elves is unlike any other experience I can think of.  Most of the time we work individually, but Christmas is one of those times when I get to play with lots of the other entertainers in the company and that is just so much fun!  It's inspiring to watch Lanie twist balloons and play with puppets, or to face paint with Lena, or to do magic with Naomi.  I love how doing larger shows really builds the community and camaraderie between entertainers and strengthens the Fire Pixie culture.

We've been personalizing lots of copies of our Princess Christmas Video too.  This is a lot of fun.. I really enjoy seeing the messages people are sending to their daughters, granddaughters and nieces..  it's pretty special to get a glimpse into the Christmas Morning gifts these little girls are going to receive.  (And I wish someone was taking ME to Disneyland this year!)

Here's our free video.. show it to your favorite little girl this week to get her all excited about Christmas!

Halloween is over and the holiday season is nearly upon us. It's a great time to start planning those Christmas parties and Fire Pixie would love to make your life easy this year...

We've got elves and snow princesses and santa's helpers and winter fairies ready to take charge of all those kids, leaving you free to enjoy your holiday evening with the grown-ups. After all, that's what Santa's elves are for.. making your life easier during the holidays!

Get your planning done early! We're having a special right now.. book any Fire Pixie holiday character and get $20 off your party! Holiday characters start at $149 for an hour of face painting, balloon twisting, holiday songs and stories, and freedom for you!
