Magic Shots are special photographs taken by Disney photographers. For each shot, Disney adds a little bit of magic into it! Walt Disney World has adorable new Moana-inspired Magic Shots. Let’s take a look to see where you can find them.

These are so cute and all we can say is, “YOU’RE WELCOME!”

Set sail for Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park where you can snap a Magic Shot with Hei Hei by visiting the photographer located closest to the Tree of Life on Discovery Island. It’s boatloads of fun.

Want more Hei Hei? Well fellow voyager, it’s time you knew that a visit to Sir Mickey’s is all you need! Make way to this Disney PhotoPass Studio in Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom Park (it’s located right next to Cinderella Castle) where you can capture a variety of photos with Hei Hei and another one of Moana’s pals. No reservations are required to visit.

Just how far would you go to take a Pua Magic Shot? Thankfully, when you’re in Magic Kingdom Park, you only need to visit the photographer stationed near the entrance to Adventureland from Main Street, U.S.A. to take a photo with this precious pig! It’s a shot sure to hog all of your smiles.

Head over to Disney Springs at the Disney PhotoPass Studio to catch one of these fun shots.

Here you can capture photos in front of both classic portrait and Disney-themed backdrops, including a few inspired by Moana! Here’s a tip: Your photographer can conjure Maui’s Fish Hook for you to hold in your photo (magical powers not included), and maybe even a Hei Hei Magic Shot. You’re welcome.

Be sure to ask your photographer for these backdrops and the prop or Magic Shot when you visit. The studio is open daily from noon to 8 p.m., and reservations are not required to visit.
