This summer, Danish photographer and mother of three Freja Troelsen visited Playtime Paris to explore the Spring-Summer 2025 collections from hundreds of international brands and next season’s trends. Having fallen in love with several labels at the show, she decided to do a kidswear photoshoot. Freja photographed her children Hedvig, Fridtjof, and Frigg in a celebration of the final rays of summer sun using products from their new collections. Let’s discover this beautiful kidswear photoshoot and her inspiration for it!

« The inspiration for this kidswear photoshoot was to catch the feeling of those last summer days. I wanted to capture the special light that appears at summer’s end. For the styling, I wanted it to be classic and romantic. With a hint of flowers, it makes us wish that summer would last just a little bit longer. I have chosen to focus on hair accessories as well, as I don’t think there is anything more pretty than bows in braided hair.

We always spend every day outside together in the summer. These are our favorite days, so I wanted the editorial to reflect that – the kids running around, eating apples, doing their thing. Light and nature are my biggest inspirations, and it seems that nature and a simple, romantic life were the inspiration for quite a few brands at Playtime Paris this summer.

Enjoy The Last days of Summer with us! »
