Five Minutes to Fairytale Photos ~ Speed of Life

I think that the magic of a Disney vacation exists in three wonderful parts: the dreaming of planning, the pixie dust moments during trip itself and the memories you take with you for years to come.

Since I can't live in the Cinderella Castle Suite or even on property year round, pictures help bring a bit of the fairytale back into my everyday life.

In my enthusiastic pursuit of remembering the Magic, I take hundreds thousands of my own pictures every vacation and hope to share a bit of my experience with you.

 The motion blur never bothered me any way.

Tag! You're it!

Actually it did drive me crazy when I got blurry shots. 

I used to think that shots that included large amounts of blur indicated an immediate need to erase the picture then retake it without even looking at what I had captured. Then I realized that sometimes they provide an otherwise un-capture-able real moment with my kids.

 

While some are blurry because I'm literally chasing my kids down, others are fascinating because the combination of the still background and the blurred children shows them how I see them in real life. Moving, living, interacting and enjoying their vacation.

It isn't perfect, but it is wonderful and magical enough for me.

“Let It Go.”

~Seriously. If you like Disney or know any girl under the age of twenty, I shouldn't even have to tell you who said it at this point.

So get out there, make mistakes, let it go, don't delete all of the blurry ones, and see what fairytale photos follow you home.
