Get ready to capture some magical moments at Walt Disney World Resort! Did you know you can book a personalized 20-minute photo session, where our photographers will snap pictures of you and your loved ones throughout the Walt Disney World theme parks? This service, which is called “Capture Your Moment”, allows you to get plenty of stunning photos of everyone in your party, and preserve some unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime!
In this article, we’ll be exploring the Capture Your Moment service in depth covering everything you need to know about it including it’s price, where it’s offered, and much more. Let’s dive right in!
What Is Capture Your Moment?
Capture Your Magic gives you the opportunity to reserve a 20-minute slot and have one of Disney’s talented PhotoPass photographers. You’ll be taken to 2 to 3 different locations within the park you reserved, and will be guided by the photographer to get much higher quality shots than the normal cell phone variety of photos.
Capture Your Moment sessions are available at all four theme parks:
- Magic Kingdom: Main Street, U.S.A. & Cinderella Castle -or- Fantasyland & Beyond
- EPCOT: World Showcase & more
- Hollywood Studios: Hollywood Boulevard, Echo Lake, Sunset Boulevard & more
- Animal Kingdom: The iconic Tree of Life & more
If you’re looking for more time and photo options, consider booking two sessions back-to-back for a total of 40 minutes with your photographer and the opportunity to visit additional photo locations.
This is the perfect way to remember your special day, such as:
- Engagement
- Honeymoon
- Anniversary
- Child’s Birth or Adoption
- Birthday
- First Walt Disney World Visit
- Family Reunion
- Family Portraits
- Graduation
- And more!
Please keep in mind that valid theme park admission and park reservations are required and not included in the session price.
