Not sure if this is talked about much on here, but wanted to pass this along. I noticed on Disney's site that they do professional photography in Magic Kingdom and have for awhile now. Although, I swear I looked into this when we went in October of 2016 and found that they went to Epcot and the resorts, but not Magic Kingdom. (or maybe they did and the price was out of this world for us)
Anywho, now they do a mini session for $195 (15 minute shoot) using Cinderella Castle as the backdrop.
We just signed up for an afternoon session in June. We are a family of 4, a son and a daughter. They said we can do pictures together and separate, etc.
Wasn't sure where the location was in Magic Kingdom until we booked and then they sent as an email with a map pointing out the exact spot. Obviously you can see the star on the map, but their description in the email was "....head down Main Street and follow the walkway to the right of the castle. Proceed onto the walkway that is closest to the castle that heads towards Fantasyland. The Portrait location is a short way along that walkway to the right hand side."
We also asked about if there was rain, what we could do. They setup a raindate, for another day that we will be in Disney (later on in the trip).
I didn't think the price was too crazy, as we had pictures done where we lived by a professional photographer for more than the cost of this. Granted they used a few different backdrops and had a longer sitting, but this sounded great for us. The wife has been on me about getting professional pictures of our 1 year old (as we had some done for our 6 year old girl when she was about that age). So she is thrilled.
Here is their website showing a map of where they do the pictures:

Has anyone done this and liked/disliked the results?
