‘Like a Dream’ by Sara Berntsen is a photo set that straddles the innocence of Indian summers and the coppery color palette of fall. It’s an [ethereal shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dream-collection-by-rituals) that places a diaphanous mosquito net, a fleet of crisp paper planes and a beautiful model dressed in white in the midst of a [woodland setting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iside-home).

I imagine scenes like that shown in ‘Like a Dream’ by Sara Berntsen would exist in a real-life version of a classic [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1) fairytale like ‘Snow White,’ ‘Cinderella’ or ‘Sleeping Beauty.’ Check out more images of the shoot above, and keep clicking for more dreamy features.
