It’s a rite of passage to take family photos when you’re in Disney World!
How else are you going to look back fondly on your trip 20 years from now if you don’t take at least a few pictures? Thankfully, Disney has PhotoPass photographers stationed throughout the park to take your photo, and you can even purchase the Memory Maker package to download those photos to your phone. But one of the best reasons to visit the PhotoPass photograpers is the Magic Shots!
There are some NEW Magic Shots available right now for Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month, now through October 15th. These are special photos where PhotoPass photographers add in some “magic” effects that will appear once the photo arrives in your My Disney Experience app. The Magic Shots available for the next few weeks include several popular Disney characters!
Bruno from Encanto‘s Magic Shot is available from PhotoPass photographers located
- at the entrance of the park near the ticket windows, and across from Feathered Friends in Flight! at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park
- near Creations Shop and just before you reach the large planter as you head from World Celebration into World Showcase at EPCOT
