Disney World Adds NEW Private Photo Sessions to Two Deluxe Hotels

Ever wanted to have gorgeous photos taken of you and your significant other, your family, a close group of friends, or just yourself at some of Disney World’s most beautiful spots? Previously, the only option was the Capture Your Moment photo sessions available in the theme parks, but now there’s a NEW option that takes things to the next level.

Now, Disney World has a new offering called Signature Portrait Sessions, which are longer, private photo sessions with your own photographer, but now at select Disney World Deluxe Hotels. If you have a special event coming up soon and you know you’d like to book a session, these aren’t cheap, but they may be exactly what you’re looking for.

Signature Portrait Sessions are NEW at the resort, and are described as a “private 40-minute photo session with Disney PhotoPass photographers at select Disney Resort hotels, currently available at $399.” You’ll receive all your photos from the session, and they’re all retouched as part of the price!

Currently, the only hotels offering this experience are Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, but indoor and outdoor locations around the hotels are available. Your photographer will help provide suggestions on where to shoot and guide you around to the different spots. You’ll discuss your top spots during the booking process, so you don’t feel like you’re taking up precious time during the shoot — 4o minutes goes by fast!

You’ll also have the opportunity to use special props in your photoshoot that may not be available during other shoots in the park, such as the ones included in the Capture Your Moments sessions in the parks. If you’re interested in booking a session, you’ll want to email [email protected] — keep in mind that full payment is due at the time of booking. The experience may be booked up to 60 days in advance of your trip beginning.

If you’d prefer to shoot in the parks, a Capture Your Moment session is going to be a better fit. These are 20-minute sessions that are available in each of the four parks, and you are allowed to book two sessions back-to-back for more time. However, the photos are not included in the $99 cost and must be purchased separately.

As this offering is new, it’s possible we could see changes to it pretty frequently as it finds its footing. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on all the news we hear about it, so stay tuned to DFB!
