Magic Shots at WDW

[Felicis]

@cyndiella I LOVE that. I would love to have Tinks in my hand with my daughter looking, similar to that with a close up. Gorgeous shot.

I actually cropped this picture myself - I was making an unattractive face - so poof! gone! IMHO: some PP photogs have not been up to par - shooting into the sun, or chopping off parts of heads, etc. and you never know until you see the pictures.. so I ask EVERY photog if they have MS's and it wouldn't hurt to double up on the same MS/different photog.
Anyway, thanks - glad you liked my picture. I thought it made for a better picture myself!

This was taken looking into the sun with no filler flash.. I had to lighten it considerably to even see our faces. Still the colors are not natural. Thank you photoshop!

We got both of these at MVMCP last year.

* The ugly sweater one was taken against the wall by Ariel's Grotto.

Love your Home for the Holidays t-shirts, did you order them from Disney?

Thank you! I have tons of Disney shirts, but these may be my favorite! I actually ordered them on Etsy

I have that same Guest of Honor badge with my name on it. I get questions about it almost every time I visit WDW. Occasionally I will get some kind of freebie or special treatment because the CMs don't know anything about them!!

I wear mine EVERY trip... bought it online somewhere (don't remember) about 12 years ago. I always get questions too..... like, Where is the nearest restroom? hahaha Way back in the day, all CM's name badges were red, I believe...

Thank you for putting this thread together! Really looking forward to using the tips for our upcoming family trip.

Yep, and this is why I have a problem with paying $169 for MM!

Don't get me wrong.. there are a lot of great PP photograghers.. just a few that are well, perhaps, not focused to make every shot great.
And then, sometimes we forget to take the sunglasses off at photo time! yikes!

Has this been mentioned yet? There's one in Epcot for F&W Festival, although I'm not sure if it qualifies as a "magic shot" because it's like a video animation.

I asked for the Remy magic shot, which I got, but the photographer asked me to take a few shots sitting by the fountain before we did the Remy shot. Didn't realize until later that one of these had special effects.

Anyway, I guess when sitting by the fountain in France you can have this taken. They take a still shot and apply animated effects so that it becomes a video with grapevines growing around the border and a wine cask complete with flowing wine, and some music. It's 17 seconds long. Trying to upload it here but keep getting hit with file-too-large error msg.

I'm not sure if this is set by the photopass photographer, or if the memory maker system has an intense algorithm that identifies still shots in certain places around F&W then applies the effects. Probably the former

I have animated shots like this too... One with Baymax and another with Sully from Monsters Inc. Love them but I also am not sure how to up load these..

I also am not sure how to up load these.

I would think you could upload them to YouTube and then put a link here.
