Quirky Photos of a Costumed Baby Trying Out Different Professions

Here’s an adorable baby dressed as a butcher, a ballerina, and a Mexican wrestler, because you never really know. Que Sera, Sera, indeed. Paris-based photographer Malo costumes a little one in grown-up garb for the series Un jour, mon enfant tu seras or One Day, You Will Be, My Child, spotted by My Modern Met, with amazing results; albeit, it’s a bit of a minefield. Maybe the sensitive parents will be offended by the prop blood splattered on the wee one’s butcher smock? Perhaps some might cry sacrilege at the baby Pope Hat? We admit that seeing a little baby dressed up as a soldier is unsettling. Yet, this is a great little project, gender-neutrality, kitsch, light controversy and all. Enjoy!

The pictures were done with lots of love, i know for sure i'm the mother ;-)

I get the concept, but the black-eyed baby makes me very uncomfortable

The title was translated incorrectly. It says "One day, my child, you will be [a ______]".

Yawn! Babies and animals always "sell", I guess.

People are saying the black eye is disturbing, but nothing about the automatic rifle. Get over yourselves! The pics were done with love. Take a Flavorpill already.

guess writer has no persona that a baby might take? lovely potrayals!

i think the translation is more accurately: one day, my child, you will be... rather than "one day you will be my child"!!

I agree that the black eye is disturbing. Children and bruises are not funny. Otherwise, the pictures were cute.

This IS indeed GREAT HUMOR! (And excellent photography) :-D

He looks rather saintly as the Pope! And yes, that black eye is disturbing...

the black eye on the boxer is disturbing... no baby should have a black eye.

They forgot "Janitor" as a profession.

萌!Especially the fifth picture!It's really lovely!
