There’s something so special about seeing our Mini Coletto dolls exactly as they’re meant to be — held, loved, and played with.
Our recent photoshoot was all about capturing those real, quiet moments of pretend play. From tiny hands playing with a rattle, to gentle cuddles and outfit changes, the day was focused on letting imagination lead and allowing the dolls and accessories to shine naturally.
Rather than creating a styled or posed shoot, we wanted this session to feel authentic. We let the children play, explore, and interact with the dolls in their own way — and that’s where the magic happened.
The images reflect what we value most at Nicci + Lu:
Marlise beautifully captured the images throughout the day, while her son and Kim and Venine's little ones became our very sweet little models. Their natural curiosity and gentle play brought so much life to each frame and helped tell the story we love to share — one of imagination, care, and connection.
Dolls aren’t just toys. They help children express emotions, build empathy, and practise everyday care in a safe and loving way. Seeing our Mini Coletto dolls and doll accessories used this way reminds us why we create what we do.
Every outfit, accessory, and detail is designed to support meaningful play — moments that feel calm, comforting, and joyful.
With Thanks
A heartfelt thank you to Kim, Venine and Marlise for spending the day with us and helping bring this shoot to life. We’re so grateful for the time, creativity, and little helping hands that made it all possible.
We hope these images inspire you to slow down, embrace pretend play, and enjoy the beauty of everyday moments with your little ones.
Because the simplest moments often become the most meaningful.
