Disneyland Hipster

So yesterday Tori and I decided to head down to Disneyland for a few hours.

I was trying to decide if I should bring my camera or not.

I ended up telling myself that I would in fact take photos, but ONLY from my hip.

What does this mean?

Exactly that.

I hang my camera over my shoulder and snap photos without looking through the view finder.

I highly recommend this.

It's always exciting taking photos without knowing exactly how they're going to turn out.

Here's the settings I used for anybody who is wondering:

Auto ISO

AV mode with my aperture set to f/4

All AF points selected (so the camera can decide what it wants to focus on)

Focal length set to 24mm

This was just my way of spicing things up a bit.

I also was able to get photos that I normally would never take

for fear of looking like a creepster.

Maybe I'll use this method on our next wedding! ;)

Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

Enjoy!

I think he saw me take his picture :/

This boy was genuinely happy to be next to Goofy.

And this girl wasn't.

Race to the finish.

Even Tori didn't know I was snappin' her photo. I'm very very sneaky.

My absolute favorite from the day.

Starting out early.

Ok, I have to admit, this was the one photo I framed through the viewfinder. Shoot me.

That's a lens flare, not a hat.

I'm definitely going to do this again!
