Hi there, Marie, and welcome to planDisney!
It sounds like you are ready to focus on the magic and capture happy smiles one picture at a time! How exciting! I love that these photographers make sure everyone is included. Sometimes, I think PhotoPass photographers have the best job because, along with Mickey Mouse, they probably get the most smiles at Walt Disney World Resort!
Marie, I have occasionally seen PhotoPass photographers at Resort hotels from time to time. I've seen them wandering around the
BoardWalk area when characters make surprise appearances and on the upper floor of
Disney's Grand Floridian, but these photographers appear intermittently and are generally not listed on the My Disney Experience app. I like to think of them as "bonus" magical photographers. Unfortunately, I can't provide specific times when they might be around, but there's a chance you could see them.
I can, however, shine a light on how to find the many PhotoPass photographers throughout the parks who will have you smiling from Mickey ear to Mickey ear!
On your
My Disney Experience app, click the Location Icon. At the top of the page, scroll over and click "PhotoPass." You can filter by location and the type of photos you're interested in. Additionally, on the map, if you click on a specific photographer, it will display the times they will be in that location, along with an example of what the photograph will look like. PhotoPass photographers sure have made it easy to find picture-perfect locations.
I'm adding a link
HERE to take you to the Disney PhotoPass service page. Here, you'll find all the information you need about Memory Maker, Magic Shots, a PhotoPass Studio, and a Capture Your Moment session for a reserved time with a photographer!
I hope this information helps you capture every memory, every smile, and every magical moment. I always say the best souvenirs are the photos I bring home because they last forever!
Have the most wonderful trip, and stop by planDisney anytime. We are as happy as can be when you bring us your questions.
Magical smiles,
Shonette
