Photographer Michelle Rubi Solis isn't satisfied with a good picture. Instead, she keeps snapping photos until she gets one that captures the "little twinkle" in a subject's eye. It's likely not very hard to do as she specializes in fairy-tale portrait sessions, which take place in a magical forest setting complete with giant mushrooms and friendly forest creatures. A special background machine makes changing the scenery or adding in a UFO a snap.

Solis also transforms young women into fairy princesses with her Enchanted photo shoots, which sport vivid and romantic colors after a photo-editing session.
