What a great post idea – thanks for sharing!
Nice to know that Disney Security has your back, or are they watching you? Celebrity has it’s perks! Thanks for sharing(but I really thought we’d see ya in jammies editing).
I’ll never have “the eye” that you do! So fun to see the moment of capture followed by the results!
Love the partners statue shot! Well, I love all of them, but especially that one. 🙂 I love how colorful the flowers are around the base. Gorgeous!
Where did you get your Mickey camera strap?
Fun post, Tom! Like the set up shot followed by the results! Nice.
Fantastic post! Very helpful to see how you get those amazing shots. Would love to see more!
Its your lawyer instincts kicking in! “Yes I really took these photos” The evidence is the photo your wife took of you taking the photo!
Is that a Donald golf club cover on your tripod? Very cool.
I love this making-of series! I hope you & Sarah do some similar posts in the future. It makes me appreciate your work ( & Sarah’s collaboration and patience) even more!
I believe the story here is quite clear. That innocent looking man with the camera is obviously a Spy, and he is taking pictures of all our best secrets so he can take them back to his homeland and present them to the King and Queen. At one point, as you can plainly see, he has pointed his camera shamelessly up the skirt of Cinderella as if she didn’t have enough trouble, what with being treated like dirt and being surrounded by mice from morn to night. That first picture shows the Authorities catching up with the Spy. You can tell the Authorities by their wide-brimmed hats, which they wear in order to blend into the crowd. That’s really not all that funny, when you think about it, a slinking, slithering, stooping spy, out to cause trouble for America!
So I’ve learned you take photos of stuff at WDW and Sarah takes photos of you taking photos of stuff at WDW
Sarah also takes photos of birds at Walt Disney World. Yessir, we’re livin’ the dream!
I really enjoyed seeing how you got all those shots. I’m also v. impressed that you were able to match up the shots of you taking the shot with the pictures that you produced! (Although now that I think about it, it doesn’t seem very lazy to me…). My favorite two shots of this group are your shot of Brer Fox at Splash Mountain and Sarah’s shot of you almost falling into the fountain.
It actually wasn’t difficult at all. Sarah’s camera and my camera are have their internal clocks synced, so when I dump the photos into a folder and sort by date taken, the photos appear right next to one another. Very easy!
Heh–we’re not that coordinated in my family! And I usually don’t think of trying to do it till I get home, even among my own cameras….
I was also wondering how you did this. Really cool!
The story behind this post? Probably the assumption that you have your chiropractor on speed dial.
Awesome post…great perspective on how you get your perspectives!!
Fun post! It’s always interesting to see set-up shots, especially when you’re hanging over ledges and falling into fountains.
I think this has been my favorite post you’ve ever done (and I love the posts). love seeing the “behind the scenes” shots!
Awesome post. You’ve inspired me to start using my tripod and carry on different lenses with me. I love seeing the behind the scene shots. Great team work, you two.
I love being able to see the angles you have to take to get your pictures-it’s awesome to see what you do and the result. Makes me think I need to be more flexible when I’m taking pictures to get unusually pretty shots!
So now we know that Sarah is your own personal photographer, lol.
Interesting to see what’s going on behind you in that first shot.
Great shots – I love this post!
AWESOME POST!
