Props for Character Photos

[addiemon]

Hey guys, I've been scouring the Internet for more tips to make a little extra magic on our trip in October and I'm curious about character photos- it seems like it's okay to bring (reasonable) props for the photos, like an apple for Snow White or that sort of thing.

I don't expect us to take a suuuuuper lot of character greeting photos- it's just hubs and I, he's not as into Disney as I am and I'm only really interested in some specific sets of characters and only if the lines aren't too crazy -but I was thinking that it would be really cute to bring a few books for a photo with Belle.

Then I realized 1) there aren't a LOT of other characters that books would be particularly thematic for, and 2) books are heavy and I probably wouldn't want to lug them all over a park for a day!

So I was wondering, do any of you bring props for character greetings? Do you have particular props that you find work well across a variety of characters? Any other fun prop tips or stories to share?

If you check out Kennythepirate - I think he has a list of props there - like play tea cups to use with Alice...

I've never brought props with me, however when myhubs and I were there in December 2015 we were preggo and hadnt announced yet so we bought a childs mickey mouse ear hat from one of the stores on main street and had our picture taken with Mickey (me in the middle of mickey and my hubs while they held the hat across my belly and the chest of my shirt said Preggers) - Super cute I thought and totally fitting since we love Disney! - I know this wasnt really your question but just thought since you like taking themed photos, this would be a good one to have in your arsenal should you ever need it!)

Enjoy!
