What Are Magic Shots?

Magic Shots are enhancements added to your Photopass photos at Disney World. This can be a prop that the photographer might have, a digital enhancement to your photo (like a character), or a lighting effect.

The Magic Shots that are available change regularly. Currently, the best way to find out what Magic Shots are available are by following Disney Photopass on Facebook.

This photo was not being done during my party. I asked the photographer, and she said instead they were doing a different Magic Shot that wasn't party specific. Be sure to ask the photographer if you are unsure what shot you might be getting. The photo below is courtesy of Disney.

How Do I Purchase Photos?

When you take a photo with a Photopass Photographer at Disney World, they will scan your Magic Band or park ticket. This will link your photos to your account.

You will be able to find your photos by going in to your My Disney Experience app, and looking under the photos section of the menu.

If you have purchased a Memory Maker package, all Magic Shots are included with your purchase. You will be able to download the photos from your phone or computer.

If you have not purchased Memory Maker you can purchase photos individually through My Disney Experience.
