A sleepy baby had a cute Moana-themed photoshoot on a beach.

Footage shows eight-month-old Arabella Snow Orense wearing a long, thick wig and costume to dress up as the Disney princess.

Arabella smiled as she sat on a tiny bamboo raft by the shore before closing her eyes appearing to doze off.

Aunt Tanya Alexis Blancaflor said: ‘I did everything I could to make her laugh for the pictures.

‘It was a monthly milestone photo so I sang her the Moana song even if I did not know the lyrics.'

The pictorial was prepared by the family in Negros Occidental, the Philippines on May 31.

Moana is a Disney animated film in 2016 that tells the story of a young Polynesian girl named Moana who sets sail across the ocean to save her people.
