Wow... If I was younger and had the money... and this was legit (I think it is)...
I came across "Fabricio Castro fotografia" channel in youtube. His description is that he bases his work on "Photography that is gender-disruptive". Within the videos he explains that they plan and execute up to 20 hours photo-video sessions, including makeup, wardrobe, studio/outdoors, etc. No mention of the cost, but has to be a good amount...

Re: Fabricio Castro photography
If they are truly boys to girls transformations they are amazing but I just can't buy it for a couple of reasons. First you never see the boys in a full body shot as boys before they are made over.
You see them getting hair extensions and make up but never changing into the female clothes. IMO they have too much chest development and cleavage for young boys to wear strapless dresses and gowns. They have the high check bone structure of women, feminine looking fingers and hands and the mannerisms in walking and posing as women. No appearance of an Adam's apple to speak and they look too comfortable as a girl in these shoots unless they have been dressing all along.
As I said in the beginning, if these are truly transformations of boys to girls they are remarkable.

Re: Fabricio Castro photography
Hi Gaby,
My name is Ally from Melbourne Australia.
I came across the Fabricio's videos a few weeks ago and like you I'm so jealous of the boys who have been through the process.
I'm so hooked on his videos that I have even been in touch with him via email and learned quite a lot about the services he offers.
The starting price (if you do not want the video put on YouTube) is $1,000 the price is halved if you authorize part of the service for Youtube upload.
He mentioned that their main service is providing a themed birthday party for a 15 year old girl, it's $2,500 and aside from the makeover and dressing you get a private room for the event and professional photos and video.
If you can't afford either and don't mind the world seeing you online he will do it for FREE!
BUT, he's the interesting thing....
He INSISTS that every boy appearing in his productions has their ears pierced and completes lessons in walking in heels! His theory is that being pierced helps the boys settle into the role!
Not sure if I would have been ready for that kind of commitment as a 13 year old.
Hi Charlene, thanks for continuing the thread.
I completely understand what you mean and I feel cheated when I see you tube transformation videos with still photos of alleged before and after shots where it's clearly a clever matching of a boy and girl that look alike.
From the research I've done and the emails I've received from Fabricio I really believe it too be true. Here's some more information if you're interested.
The reason you only see portions of the transformation is that they are the sections that the parents have authorised to be released. As you can imagine it's difficult to identify your son AFTER a full makeover so his identity is safe. However there are som videos that show the boys pre and post and one boy is filmed having his ears pierced to meet the requirements of the service provider.
As I mentioned if you want the have a FREE transformation you waive your rights to withhold the video and they post it all.
Over the 19 videos there are some briefly showing the boys dressing, including one using a latex bodysuit to give his thin frame some curves which I found very interesting.
If you look at the most recent video called "William - Transformed in a girl for a day" (His English isn't great) you will see a quite muscular your boy which they described as their most difficult transformation. While his face is perfect he looks like a powerful young girl who would be a strong athlete.
They seem to be perfectionists which is why they resist taking bookings from adults unless they have suitable features to feminise.
If you've worn a fitted strapless dress you would know it can pull your chest in a way that gives you a bust, and they are wearing dresses that underdeveloped girls would wear.
As for the mannerisms there are two conditions of being accepted for the session. The first bring that you are willing to have your ears pierced and second that you complete a short deportment course including competence in walking in heels, it's funny to watch some of the boys still striding like a boy in 3-4 inch heels.
As for being too comfortable I can think of at least two videos in which they comment that the boy became too nervous being outside in a dress so they changed to a more unisex outfit or had them pose with animals to relax them.
One of the oldest was actually a 35 year old subscriber to the channel, due to his youthful features he was accepted and was made up as a beautiful bride. Unfortunately he lost his nerve to go outside so he was only filmed in the studio.
I hope this encourages you to continue looking at the rest of the collection as they are amazing. I cannot imagine how happy I would have been if I was allowed and able to do this as a child.

Re: Fabricio Castro photography
Hi girls,
I was just as intrigued by this service as you, but I think it's fake.
The profile picture for the photographer is a stock image from as early as 2012 (See this search). And, if I take my rose-colored glasses off, I can see small clues. In the Luis Felipe video, the girl has a birthmark or mole near her hairline and above her eye. This is missing from the boy in the comparison shot.
It's disappointing that this person is going beyond making a fantasy video to making false claims. I'd rather not be lied to about a special service that uses latex and bodysuits.
Yours,
AC
