    First time actually buying memory maker before our trip so I’m looking for some of the best fp spots. We will be in the MK, Epcot, HS, and staying at the contemporary, so anything on the monorail. I love photos and will frame as many as possible!

    Hi Tara! Smile and say, "Cheese," because you've come to the right place to focus on fun family photos! Purchasing Memory Maker is always a great idea, so let's discuss some of my favorite picture-perfect photo spots!

    If you see a PhotoPass photographer, you're in a great spot for a picture! At Magic Kingdom, don't miss the chance to take that iconic photo in front of Cinderella Castle. However, be sure to keep an eye out for photographers positioned along the sides of the castle. These angles make for some of my favorite photos of Cinderella Castle, and be sure to look for these photographers during both the day and night. A VERY popular photo opportunity is located by the famous Tangled-themed restrooms. This photo op is available only after the sun goes down, allowing you to hold one of the floating lanterns. It's a perfect setting for capturing a unique and amazing photo to frame!

    At Hollywood Studios, you won't want to miss all the fun locations in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, Toy Story Land, and down Sunset Boulevard.

    EPCOT is one of my favorite places to use Memory Maker. Be sure to get your photos in front of Spaceship Earth at any time during the day, but nighttime photos are extra magical. There are SO MANY photo opportunities while walking around World Showcase. Whether you're posing with the Eiffel Tower behind you at the France Pavilion or stopping at the Germany Pavilion to snap a picture with Snow White, keep an eye out for photographers everywhere.

    Tara, be sure to ask your photographers about Magic Shots. When I visited Animal Kingdom, a photographer asked me to look at the ground and smile. A few minutes later, I saw my picture on the My Disney Experience app, and Pumbaa was added to the photo, smiling with me—he's such a ham! You can ask any of the photographers if they have a little bit of this magic in their cameras. 

    Check out Tiny World Magic Shots and Super Zoom Magic Shots; these photos are incredibly unique! I was in Walt Disney World last month and got a Super Zoom picture at all four theme parks. You will love them! They not only capture your smiles but also capture the vibe of the theme park all around you! Also, with your Memory Maker purchase, you'll gain access to all your attraction photos and videos. 

    For an extra-special photo experience included with your purchase, visit one of the Disney PhotoPass Studios. These indoor locations resemble traditional photo studios and offer various backdrops and props. With studios located at Disney Springs and the Magic Kingdom, you can stop by anytime for some magical traditional photos without needing a reservation.

    When you arrive in the parks, open your My Disney Experience app and click on the map icon. At the top of the map, scroll over and click "PhotoPass" to see where photographers are located in the park. 

    I hope this helps you capture the perfect memories. I'm so happy you visited us. You are always welcome! 

    Magical memories,
