While we all know there’s magic afoot at the Disneyland Resort, it’s little-known that the magic can even appear in your Disney PhotoPass photos. Disney PhotoPass photographers capture picture-perfect memories of your whole family – and sometimes, photographers sprinkle even more pixie dust on your photos. We call these Magic Shots. Let’s dive into my favorite Disney PhotoPass Magic Shots currently available at the Disneyland Resort.
Balloons
Location: Disneyland Resort
Don’t float away! This magical photo op features iconic Mickey Mouse Balloons and is captured at many locations throughout the Disneyland Resort. It’s available year-round and is often available with limited-time theming for various celebrations. Right now you can enjoy balloons themed to the Disney100 celebration! Be sure to ask your photographer if they are offering this Magic Shot at their location.
Cheshire Cat
Location: Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland
Is it your unbirthday? This Magic Shot is the perfect way to celebrate. The Cheshire Cat is sure to make you grin when he pops into your Disney PhotoPass photo over at the Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland.
Huey, Dewey and Louie are excited to have you in their photo! Make sure to stop by the photo location to the left of the Hyperion Theater in Hollywood Land and get these three troublemakers in your photo — you just have to promise not to tell Uncle Donald Duck about their shenanigans!
Violet’s Force Field
Location: Bridge to Pixar Pier
I hope you haven’t disappeared like Violet yet! We still have a few incredible Magic Shots ahead. Located on the bridge to Pixar Pier, this Magic Shot gets the whole family in the frame – and in Violet’s force field! With her superpowers, Violet shields you from Jack-Jack’s unpredictable superhuman abilities.
Porg
Location: Millennium Falcon
If your travels bring you to the remote planet of Batuu, head over to the Disney PhotoPass Image Scanner (known on our planet as a photographer) by the Millennium Falcon to get this inquisitive creature in your photo!
Minnie Mouse
Location: Sleeping Beauty Castle & Partners statue
Minnie Mouse is the star of the show in this Magic Shot! She’s stylish, creative and an icon! A classic and must-have for your collection, this Magic Shot is located in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle, as well as the Partners statue.
Buzz Lightyear and Woody
Location: Bridge to Pixar Pier
Are you looking for a rootin’ tootin’ good time? Another great Magic Shot can be found on the bridge to Pixar Pier! To round up the end of this list, Buzz Lightyear and Woody are flying into the frame with this “toy-rific” photo op.
