Must Do PhotoPass Spots at Disney World

Disney World has a fantastic service called Photopass. They have photographers stationed throughout all the theme parks ready to get perfect pictures of your family. This means no more missing family members from the vacation pictures. Plus, Photopass is 100% free to use, they will even snap a picture on your personal phone if you ask. If you are trying to spot one of these Photopass photographers just look for someone carrying professional camera equipment wearing a tan vest with two large front pockets. However, we are going to break down the must do Photopass spots at Disney World so you know exactly where to head.

Magic Kingdom Perfect Photopass Spots
