A Walt Disney World vacation is full of memories worth revisiting for years to come, and Disney PhotoPass Service captures the photos that will take you back to the magic every time.
Disney PhotoPass Service is located throughout Walt Disney World and is there to snap the photos you’ll treasure for a lifetime. You can spot our talented PhotoPass cast across our parks, resorts and Disney Springs, as well as at special events like runDisney races. They’ll help you pose, they’ll frame the best shot and they’ll capture all the magic of the moment.
Disney PhotoPass at Disney World Parks
Let’s start this guide in the parks, where there’s no shortage of photo-worthy stops… we’re talking more than 175 Disney PhotoPass locations. You’ll find photographers near icons like Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom, Spaceship Earth at EPCOT, the Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom, the Millennium Falcon at Hollywood Studios, and more.
Magic Shots
Don’t forget to ask your photographer about Magic Shots! This PhotoPass exclusive includes over 100 special effects that are digitally (or, auto-magically) added to your photos. You may see characters, pixie dust, or fun seasonal and event overlays.
Looking for another unique way to step into the picture? Head into The Magic of Disney Animation at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where you can help Maximus find Pascal, pump up party balloons with Baymax, and set sail with Moana and the Kakamora through interactive gameplay in the Portrait Gallery.
As you play, Disney PhotoPass captures the fun and adds your game score to the photos, giving you a special keepsake and official bragging rights.
In addition to the icons and scenic park stops, PhotoPass can be found at select character greetings for everything from hugs to high-fives.
PhotoPass on Rides
On-ride photos and videos give you more than one way to relive your adventures at more than a dozen attractions. Some of the newest PhotoPass memories come with a little extra pixie dust.
If you’ve got a little extra time in the parks, try Capture Your Moment. It’s a personalized 20-minute Disney PhotoPass session. With the parks as your backdrop, our photographers can capture special moments like first visits, birthdays, graduations, and more.
Ready to strike a pose? Capture Your Moment is at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios with separate sessions available in Batuu.
These private photo sessions include up to 40 minutes of photo capture and consultation time, access to special props, photo retouching, and downloads of photos. They’re led by specially trained photographers and photo assistants who will capture professional photos tailored to your needs.
