The lenses are also a special way to capture memories during The World’s Most Magical Celebration, the incredible 18-month event commemorating the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort.
Whether you’re in your Disney Resort hotel room, traveling on the Disney Skyliner, or waiting for the character cavalcade to begin, you can capture photos and videos with Disney PhotoPass Lenses to your heart’s content. While many Disney PhotoPass Lenses can be used across Walt Disney World Resort, others like the Remy lens will be available exclusively in specific areas of the parks.
The fun continues even after your Disney vacation – you can also enjoy some Disney PhotoPass Lenses up to 45 days after the day you visit with Disney Genie+ service, including one of our favorites, which lets you recreate one of the most iconic scenes from “Lady and the Tramp.” Just open the My Disney Experience app and be sure to try it with your dog or cat!

At Disney, innovation and storytelling are at the heart of everything we do, and by collaborating with Snap, we’re excited to further transform how guests experience their favorite stories. Every day, we are exploring new ways for technology to help us bridge the physical and digital worlds in what we call the “theme park metaverse” to further immerse our guests in experiences they cannot find anywhere else.
These lenses will join the many other ways to capture your vacation memories with our amazing cast of Disney PhotoPass photographers throughout Walt Disney World Resort – from family photos in front of park icons to Magic Shots, the Capture Your Moment photo sessions, and Augmented Reality Lenses for Disney Genie.
The Disney PhotoPass Lenses featured are just the beginning, as we’re creating more for you to enjoy in the future. Stay tuned to the Disney Parks Blog for more details!
