A few weeks back, Brad and I planned this little last-minute weekend getaway to the Great Smoky Mountains.
Talk about a much-needed vacation... We had such a great time. We rented the cutest cabin in Pigeon Forge with the most AMAZING view ever, ate at some great restaurants there and in Gatlinburg, and just had the best couple of days spending lots of time with each other.
We had such an amazing time that I wanted to share a little vlog we filmed as well as some of our pictures. Mainly because I want to show-off the amazing pictures my new Canon S95 takes. It's seriously amazing. Since the focus is rather loud, I don't film with it, so the vlog was filmed with my same camera I've used for years (for photos and videos), my Sony Cybershot DSC W290. Which I don't recommend for photos. But I'm planning on getting a new video camera soon so wooohooooo!
Anyway, back to the Canon S95... it's awesome.
Here's a little look at our trip!
A few shots of the view from our cabin... Looks like a painting.
We went to the Apple Barn. I hadn't been there in years and Brad had never been. The Applewood Farmhouse restaurant there was delicious.
Oh what a makeshift tripod (sunken river bank and a few rocks) and a camera self-timer can do...
We took a drive through the mountains... The next four were taken from the actual car, out the window...lol




Awesome Bear hat.



We brought a picnic up the mountain to this quiet (and very cold) spot...
...which also happened to be labeled as a "bear habitat". Seriously. A bear habitat picnic area.
Awesome.

Brad got creative with the picture-taking.
After taking this, I realized I was standing in poison ivy.
Note: Burn boots.
...next he says "Lets do one on the log."
When I tried to mount the log, things got awkward...
He meant the camera goes on the log.
Obviously... I knew that. :/

"hmmmm.... How to make this small stream slightly dangerous...."

"...stand on a rock." Not super dangerous, but seriously... What is it about guys that makes them want to jump on every rock they see near water?

Yep. More rock standin'. "Which rock to stand on next...hmmm..."

ReplyDeleteI would love to know the name of the resort, and the exact cabin you stayed in...I'm in love!
ReplyDeleteYou two are really cute :). I showed my husband (we've been married 30 yrs.) your video and he laughed that Brad had put all your stuff in the closet. My husband does the exact same thing...haha.
Hey Tiffany!!! I love your videos, I'm a big fan! :) Just wanted to say that I think your photos are great. I was just wondering how well does it take when your inside or in low light? I'm thinking about purchasing a camera. Thanks! :)

Hi Tiffany, I love your videos. You are so talented and creative! I saw you once at the LA IMATS 2 years ago, but I was too shy to walk up to you to say hi. My daughter really likes your teddy bear hat, would really appreciated it if you can let me know where to get it. I have searched online every where and couldn't find any that is as cute as yours. Many thanks!
