Luckily, photographers manage to snap royal kisses on their cameras not only during royal weddings, but on many other occasions as well.

Being a parent is perhaps one of the most difficult jobs in the world, and parenting in fairy tales is no exception. No one is guaranteed to not make mistakes, and there is no single rule that clearly outlines how to act in a certain situation. Nevertheless, some recommendations still exist.
The fairy tales we heard and read about when growing up are not what they seem to be. This is because, over time, the stories got changed so drastically that even the main plots are not what they used to be. One example is that Sleeping Beauty didn’t pinch her finger on a spindle at all.
Seeing the world through a child’s eyes is no easy task, but Adrian C. Murray, a father of 4 and a photographer, managed to capture the everyday fairy tales his kids would create right in his house. Whether it’s hugging a beloved dog or potty-training a teddy bear, these few moments that may seem ordinary are, in fact, a small part of the magic that is childhood.
In fairy tales, there are all sorts of enchanting beautiful creatures, including humans. This is what Bella Kotak, a fairytale fine art photographer who lives and works in the US and the UK wants us to see and imagine. Her storytelling pictures remind us that there’s a wonder in every face.
Denmark might make people think about fairy tales. After all one of history’s most famous Danes was the world-famous writer Hans Christian Andersen. And his famous story, “The Little Mermaid,” has been famously immortalized by a famous statue along the country’s Langelinie promenade. For some, it also helps that Denmark the home of the old amusement park called Tivoli, which is right in the middle of Copenhagen, inspired Walt Disney to create Disneyland. But the country is more than that.
Fairy tales can sometimes send mixed messages. In fact, when Charles Perrault wrote Cinderella, he ended the story with 2, rather conflicting morals. First, that goodness is more important than appearances and second, in a slightly more cynical tone, that things like courage and intelligence are important, but you need a “godmother” or “godfather” to help you get ahead in life. In other words, there’s no greater magic than the power of networking.
We rarely think about the true meaning of fairy tales we know. But if you dig deeper into the story, you will see that Rapunzel is about unhappy love, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs didn’t actually have a stepmother in the story, and Pinocchio was supposed to have a different ending. And the deeper you go into a story, the more interesting it gets.
Traditional fairy tales taught many generations of girls the idea that a perfect man is someone who rides in on his horse to help a damsel in distress. And the dream of meeting their Prince Charming doesn’t go away, even when many of these girls grow up. But who needs a fictional book character when there are real-life heroes all around us?
Fairy tales paint a rose-tinted version of what love is, which is why it is up to us to teach our kids about the realities of love. For one, children should know that love does not always involve knights in shining armor and happily ever afters. Similarly, they shouldn’t be told that rude people who tease them have a crush on them.
We all grew up listening to and reading fairy tales that have happy endings, like a wedding. But for some reason, they don’t often talk about what happens after the wedding, so we are left thinking that people are incredibly happy. However, not everyone manages to become truly happy in a marriage, so some people choose to be alone.
Fairy tales can’t even hold a candle to a world abundant in magical places and unforgettable experiences. Magnificent things happen all around us like pink lakes, rainbow sands, precise movements of a drummer, the harmony of volcano and sky, and the games of water and wind. Let’s explore together!
Is there anything better than waking up early in the morning because your 3-year-old is poking you in the eye and trying to turn you into a pirate? And then, just as you’re about to start getting annoyed, your child tells you that they love you even more than their precious toy car and then, you’re ready to go through the poking all over again. Children — they’re the reason you notice more and more gray hairs on your head and why you’ve had more sleepless nights than you could ever count. But they’re also the reason you strive to become a better and healthier person every single day.
The lineup of Disney princesses currently includes 12 characters who are royal by birth, by marriage, or considered a “princess” due to their heroism. Some of those beloved characters have their origin in legends, fairy tales, or even real life, which is often more exciting or darker than what we see in the movies.
Cartoons are a true school of life, and their creators often manage to hide important truths and priceless lessons there. We at Bright Side watched Pixar animated movies again, and we were amazed by the deep psychological conclusions that can be made on their basis.
