I believe Disneyland does magic shots like WDW does. However, when I've searched online, the most updated lists of magic shots are almost 9 months old. Has anyone gotten magic shots at DL lately? Also, where do you usually find great photopass shots? I know the photographers roam but I can't find a good list of where the "money" shots are.

If you care to share any photopass pics you just love and/or magic shots, I would deeply appreciate it!

Thanks!!
 
The only locations I know of that consistently offer magic shots (and you should still ask first because things change all the time) are the castle and Town Square facing the castle. The castle is the better bet since Town Square seems to offer the shots when there are holiday decorations in place, e.g. the Mickey pumpkin or the Christmas tree.
 
Oh, and if you can find a wandering photographer (some must stay where they are), they will take you around to do lots of cool shots! We had multiple photo shoots with my husband and I!
 

Like this topic! One I've wondered about! I'm used to WDW and there a big clue was if there was no tripod then the photographer probably does magic shots. Is this still the case in DL too or am I reading that the photographers here wander around more so I can't use this as a big clue?

No way! How did that work? Did you ask him to follow you around for a few minutes? My kids are total hams and would love to do this!
 
If you can find the roaming Photopass photographer in Carsland, they often have a MagicShot. I recall asking (this has been more than 9 months ago) and he said that the photographers with a tripod don't normally have the Magic Shot, so you'll need to find the photographers without a tripod.

I would just ask every photopass photographer that you see/visit about whether they have any magic shots. Some do, some do not, and if you don't ask, you might miss out on some opportunities.

Yes, this. I would just ask every photographer what magic shots they can do and where they can do them.
