Can You Take Engagement Photos at Disney?

The great thing about Walt Disney World is that there is no shortage of spots where you and your partner can take engagement photos together. Whether you want to snap some shots while holding your partner's hand or engaging in a kiss, Disney World is home to more than 25 hotels and dozens of attractions (safety-permitting) where you can do so. And for couples who want to look beyond Florida, you could even consider Disneyland in California or one of the brand's many international parks, like Disneyland Paris or Tokyo Disney Resort.

How Much Do Disney Engagement Photos Cost?

If you opt to have a Disney Photopass cast member capture your moment literally with an official "Capture Your Moment" photo shoot, be prepared to spend $99 for a 20-minute shoot. However, you can include up to eight guests per session which can be beneficial if you'd like to take a couple of shots with friends and family after you pop the question. However, it is important to note that the $99 is the session cost and you will need to purchase your photos separately–unless you have purchased Memory Maker (starting at $185 when you buy it in advance) or have an annual pass with the additional Photopass add-on (for $99 per year).

However, if you opt to have another photographer photograph your special moment, the cost of your Disney engagement photos may vary depending on the photographer, your needs and their available packages. Pro Tip: You can find a wide range of great photographers on The Knot Vendor Marketplace.

If Winnie the Pooh is you or your partner's favorite Disney character, head over to The Thotful Spot at Magic Kingdom. Since Pooh Bear and Tigger frequently meet at this location, we'd recommend stopping by early in the morning or during the midday break they typically have from meeting guests. Although this couple opted to hold hands and gaze into each other's eyes for their photo, you could both look at the camera for a different look, too.
