« WHEN MY BABY DREAMS » est le titre du premier livre d’Adele ENERSEN, une jeune maman finlandaise, blogueuse et photographe amateur, qui a eu l’idée de mettre en scène sa fille Mila, lorsqu’elle rêvait.
En 2010, Mila, tout juste âgée de deux semaines, dormait dans de drôles de position. Sa maman eut l’idée de créer de petites scènes, de la photographier avec des éléments de déco, couvertures et oreillers, puis de poster les photos sur son blog. Au bout de deux mois, elle comptait 2 millions de visiteurs. Adele a arrêté de prendre sa fille en photo lorsqu’elle a eu 4 mois mais les agents littéraires et les éditeurs avaient déjà eu vent de son travail…
Et le deuxième livre d’Adele ENERSEN, « WHEN MY BABY DREAMS OF FAIRY TALES » vient de paraître aux éditions Balzer + Bray.
Trop chou !
« WHEN MY BABY DREAMS » is the first book of Adele Enersen, an author, amateur photographer and blogger living in Helsinki, Finland. In 2010, when her baby girl, Mila, was 2 weeks old, Adele noticed that she slept in a funny position. « One night, she fell asleep on a blanket on the floor in a funny position, with her arm stretched out, and she looked like a little fencer. My husband, Lasse, and I were laughing that she was probably dreaming about exactly that, so Lasse, who’s a film composer, placed his conductor’s baton in her hand and we took the very first « daydream » picture. »
Adele had the idea to build sets with pillows and blankets, to gently carried her baby to the middle of it, to take pictures and to post them on a blog she built for that purpose. After two months, she had 2 million visitors. Adele kept on making the pictures until her daughter was 4 months old, when she started teething.
Her second book, « WHEN MY BABY DREAMS OF FAIRY TALES », was just published in January by Balzer + Bray.
