Nicole Perkins, a photographer who works at a special needs secondary school in the UK, has created a magical photoshoot that showcases children with Down syndrome as Disney characters. Her intention is to create awareness of the common chromosomal disorder that each year affects about 6,000 babies born in the United States and 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 1,100 live births worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.

Perkins, whose 12-day campaign is called Down with Disney, wants to show people that beauty can still exist in spite of the syndrome. The photographer, who runs a photography business that focuses on kids and young adults, first launched a campaign in 2018 called Down with Beautiful, which featured 32 babies, children, teens and young adults with Down syndrome.

“There is something so special about people with Down Syndrome and the more people who realize that the better.” Perkins told Fox 5, “They really do make the world a better place.”

Given that last year’s campaign was more educational, she wanted this year’s shoot to be more fun. She ended up recreating 12 adorable classic Disney films and the results were truly inspiring. She began with a 4-month-old baby girl named Aurora Marney dressed as The Little Mermaid and continued with 2-year-old Zephaniah Ojar paying tribute to The Jungle Book.

On day three, she showcased 2-year-old Bella Gould as a Monsters Inc. character, and on day four, 2-year-old Dorothy Mason played Snow White with seven stuffed dwarfs. Others included 6-year-old Leiya Cooper as Cinderella, 2-year-old Abdullah Adnan as Alladin, 7-year-old Maryam El-Khamisi as Jasmine, 2-year-old Angelo as Simba from The Lion King, and 10-year-old Holly Allan and 6-year-old Jensen Pointon as The Beauty and The Beast, among others.

According to the National Down Syndrome Society, only 1% of all cases of Down syndrome have a hereditary component. Also, a 35-year-old woman has approximately a 1 in 350 chance of having a child with Down syndrome. This chance increases progressively to 1 in 100 by age 40 and approximately 1 in 30 by age 45.

Survival rates for children with Down syndrome have also gradually increased. At the beginning of the last century, children with Down syndrome rarely lived past 9 years old. Now, thanks to advancements in treatment, the majority of people with the condition will live to age 60 or longer.
