Special Star-Spangled Photo Opportunities at Walt Disney World For Independence Day

Walt Disney World is always the place to be for Independence day celebrations and in addition to their famous Fireworks displays, you’ll also find a multitude of star-spangled photo opportunities offered by Disney PhotoPass Service to those celebrating the Fourth of July in the parks!

Let’s start with the photo opportunities that will be available at Magic Kingdom Park.

The Muppets Present…Great Moments in American History is an extremely interesting and entertaining reenactment about the founding of America! On July 3 and 4, a Disney PhotoPass photographer will be periodically located near Sleepy Hollow in Liberty Square, so drop by and be sure to ask for a Magic Shot featuring the stars of the show.

On the Fourth of July while you’re soaking in the spirit of America in Liberty Square, visit the Disney PhotoPass photographer located near the replica of the Liberty Bell to take star-spangled photos that celebrate the nation’s birthday.

A grand holiday such as this deserves a grand photo op! Cinderella’s Coach will be in Fantasyland all day on July 3 and 4, and a Disney PhotoPass photographer will be there to capture a photo of you in front of it.

Once it’s completely dark on the evenings of July 3 and 4, head to Fantasyland where you’ll find this dazzling photo opportunity next to Ariel’s Grotto! Thanks to the unconventional way this photo is captured, every photo is unique. Stop by to see what yours will look like!

Over at Disney Springs, visit the Disney PhotoPass Studio in the Marketplace where you’ll find special red, white and blue virtual backdrops. While this location offers a variety of Disney-themed virtual backdrops year-round, these patriotic backdrops will only be available now through July 7.

And finally, at all four theme parks on the Fourth of July, select photographers will have this festive prop celebrating the Stars and Stripes that you can include in your photos.

Six New Magic Shots Now Available at Walt Disney World Resort

Disney PhotoPass Service has launched quite a few new Magic Shots at Walt Disney World Resort over the past few weeks! Today we’re going give you and peek at what they look like and show you where you can find them during your next visit.

Many of these Magic Shots are only offered in locations that are covered intermittently by photographers who continuously roam all around the parks to capture memories rather than staying stationed in one place. So if you happen to see a photographer in these locations, be sure to stop by and ask for these Magic Shots:

In front of the Casting Agency door near Disney Clothiers on Main Street, U.S.A. at Magic Kingdom Park

Near Dumbo the Flying Elephant at Magic Kingdom Park

Near Mad Tea Party at Magic Kingdom Park and in the United Kingdom Pavilion at Epcot (Please note that this Magic Shot is not available from photographers capturing photos at Character Experience locations.)

Maharajah Jungle Trek at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Near UP! A Great Bird Adventure in Asia at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and Rafiki’s Planet Watch as well as select Discovery Island locations at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

These are just a few of the many Magic Shots offered at Walt Disney World Resort. Check out every Magic Shot currently available by visiting the albums section of the Disney PhotoPass Service Facebook page, and don’t forget to purchase Memory Maker or Memory Maker One Day to make the most out of Disney PhotoPass Service. Once you’ve downloaded your photos, be sure to share them with us using #DisneyPhotoPass for a chance to be featured on our social media pages!

Details About ‘Memory Maker One Day’ PhotoPass At Disney World

Over the last few years, Disney PhotoPass Service’s Memory Maker One Day product has undergone quite an expansion at Walt Disney World Resort! Here is the latest information on just how the Memory Maker One Day works at Walt Disney World.

When first introduced a few years ago, Memory Maker One Day was only available for purchase in one location and only during special events. Thanks to its popularity, today it’s available for purchase every day of the year and in a variety of locations!

Memory Maker One Day provides you with many of the same benefits as Memory Maker, just for one day of PhotoPass photos taken at Walt Disney World Resort. That means for one day of your choice, you’ll get digital downloads of all your Disney PhotoPass photos linked to your account that were taken on that day. Every smile and thrill! You’ll be surprised how many you can capture in a single day.

You’ll have 45 days to link and download all of your photos from the day of your choice.

Memory Maker One Day is available for $69 in the My Disney Experience mobile app once you’ve linked at least one Disney PhotoPass photo to your account from the day to which you plan to apply the entitlement. You’ll also find Memory Maker One Day at Walt Disney World Resort theme park ticket windows and Disney PhotoPass Centers.

Trying to decide between Memory Maker and Memory Maker One Day? It’s really rather simple! Memory Maker costs $169 or $199, depending on when you purchase it and allows you to take home all of your PhotoPass photos taken during your vacation. So according to my calculator, Memory Maker is a good option for you if you’re visiting Walt Disney World Resort for three or more days. If you’ll be visiting for one or two days (or only attending a special event such as Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party), purchasing $69 Memory Maker One Day for each day of your visit is the better option for you.

Disney Unveils New Purple Wall Design at Magic Kingdom
The paint has dried and the selfie taking has begun! On Monday, Disney unveiled it’s new purple wall in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom Park in Walt Disney World. The newly redesigned wall now features an updated purple color scheme in still makes for an Insta-worthy photo-op.

For Disney it may have “all started with a mouse”, but for Instagrammers, the #DisneyWall trend all started with a wall – a purple wall to be exact… So many guests found the purple pigment of this wall to make an ideal Instagram background that the wall quickly earned its own hashtag – #purplewall – and became a sought-after photo stop for guests visiting the park.

If you’re looking to get a picture with the new purple wall you can find it just down the ramp from Tomorrowland Terrace toward the entrance to Tomorrowland. Right when you hit the turn into the land, you’ll see the Purple Wall on your right.

PhotoPass Props Are The Latest Trend To Capture the Magic At Disney World

Disney Props for PhotoPass ops are increasingly popular these days and PhotoPass Service is constantly adding new photo opportunities at Walt Disney World Resort. Disney prides itself in helping guest take home unique mementos that capture the magic experienced during a Disney vacation, and props are an excellent way to place you in the moment and help you tell a story with your photos.

Whether you’re marking a special occasion, stepping right into your favorite tale, or celebrating being in a Disney Park with your loved ones, there’s a prop for you! Here’s just a tiny sampling of the many props that are often available at various locations around Walt Disney World Resort throughout the year:

We also have seasonal, festival and event props! Our Halloween- and Christmas-themed props always seem to receive the most attention, but we also offer props that celebrate other special occasions like Lunar New Year, Valentine’s Day, the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival, Spring Break, St. Patrick’s Day, Party for the Planet, Star Wars: Galactic Nights, Independence Day, Bastille Day, Thanksgiving, and so much more.

Feeling inspired? Many of us have those essential items like toys and accessories that we always carry with us in the parks, so why not feature them in your photos? PhotoPass photographers love to get creative and incorporate your beloved “props” into pictures!

With or without props, when you visit Disney PhotoPass photographers, you won’t just be taking photos, you’ll be taking creative keepsakes that tell your Disney story!
