Meet the world's most lifelike Disney princess - a 21-year-old man from California. Richard Schaefer has transformed himself into an array of Disney princesses, including Snow White, Cinderella and Ariel, thanks to his naturally soft features and clever make-up tricks. The freelance make-up artist from Fullerton, Orange County, spends two hours on each transformation and wears his own home-made costumes. Richard attends comic conventions in character and wows fairytale fans, who are stunned when they discover the picture-perfect real life Disney princess is in fact a man.
