Drawings of Characters Being Carried Princess Style - Sweep Me Off My Feet

One of the easiest ways to lift someone off the ground—or catch them as they fall from a tree or ladder—is the famed bridal carry, aka the princess carry, where one arm is placed under the person’s legs with the other supporting their back. While often used to indicate or foreshadow a romantic relationship, this gesture can also be used to illustrate close platonic bonds, major strength differences, or moments of vulnerability. Whatever the nature of the relationship, it can be undoubtedly sweet to observe the pair in such an intimate moment, don’t you think?
