DisneyLAND engagement photography?

[Queenie122]

Does anyone know, can you get an engagement photo session at Disneyland like you can at Disney World? If so, anyone know how much that might cost? Or who I might call to get more info?

Thanks for any tips!

I am not sure if you can do an official DL photo shoot (with Disney photographers) however, outside photography is allowed in.

We are having a 'honeymoon" photo shoot when we go to DL in March We are getting married in Hawaii (and will have pro pics there of course) but we really wanted a fun DL photo shoot to remember our honeymoon there.

We hired Sarina Love Photography.

She was featured in the Disney Fairy Tale Wedding and Honeymoon Blog multiple times (at least twice as a wedding photorapher there, and once for an engagement shoot). This engagement shoot she did is what inspired us and I booked her asap!

I would look around the LA/Anaheim area for a photographer that you love and see how they feel about doing a park shoot (keep in mind parking, entrance costs, etc). Also, you will not have the park to yourself this route, but I am ok with that Adds to the fun vibe of DL in my opinion.

It seems outside photographers are the way to go with Disneyland.

Local photographers shouldn't charge more than $300 for an e-shoot at Disneyland. There is a great local photographer named Amanda Patrice that I recommend, and she is a passholder so you shouldn't have to pay for her ticket.

That's a great price, thank you for the info!

I'm trying to decide between hiring an outside photographer or maybe saving some money and just going crazy with some photopass pics which I can then print out myself. I know hiring someone would give me much better quality pictures. But I will also be there with three kids and I doubt they will sit still in Disneyland for us posing for an hour, lol.

We're using Beverly Hills Photo for our engagement shoot. We are getting ours for free since we are booking them for our wedding, but they are normally $295. Also, they have cast member passes, so you don't have to pay for them to enter the park! Yay!
