Greetings, Nancy!
Welcome to planDisney! Hip hip hooray! Your arrival at The Most Magical Place on Earth will be here in just a few short days! I am sure that everyone in your travel party is getting excited as you finalize all the last-minute details. This is an amazing summer to visit, with
new attractions and
nighttime spectaculars. Get ready for the best trip ever!
Summer evenings at
Disney's Boardwalk are absolutely picture-perfect. Whether you are a Guest of
Disney's Boardwalk Inn out for a nightly stroll or specifically visiting the boardwalk for the fabulous food and entertainment, this spot is a beautiful place to spend an evening. I am sure that the scenic views of Cresent Lake lit with the warm glow of string lights will leave a lasting impression. Wanting to capture shots of your whole crew in this picturesque setting is a fabulous idea. It has been my personal experience that there are occasionally Disney PhotoPass photographers on hand at various Walt Disney World Resort Collection hotels, but this is not a guarantee. These opportunities are not listed with the official PhotoPass sites listed in the My Disney Experience app, and should be considered "bonus photo options". My recommendation would be to bring your favorite camera or smart device on your adventure so you can take plenty of photos. If you are hoping to get a family shot without a photographer be sure to bring a camera or phone with a self-timer! I am also a huge fan of flexible phone tripods. These take up very little space in your theme park bag and make group shots fun and easy. You may be surprised at how many silly yet perfect family shots you can take with the help of this little stand.
While we are on the topic of Disney PhotoPass Photographers, let's go over all of the amazing benefits that come with
Disney Photo Pass and the
Memory Maker option. PhotoPass photographers are available throughout all four theme parks to capture professional photos of your crew in all of your favorite spots. Park icons and Character Greetings make family photos extra magical. Images taken by PhotoPass Photographers will be available for viewing in your
My Disney Experience account the same day. You will also find hilarious attraction photos and videos, and Magic Shots ready to view within minutes. If you know you will be using this service often (And you should..you can take unlimited photos!), I recommend purchasing Memory Maker before you arrive at a specially discounted price. Memory Maker includes digital downloads of all your photos, making it the perfect souvenir!
I hope that your upcoming adventure is memorable and magical!
We'll see ya real soon!
