The backgrounds are gorgeous and your whole family is (relatively) happy to all be together. We share our Top 5 Ideas for making sure you capture the best family portraits possible.<\/p>\n<h3>Park Icons<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-51980\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/MFL-Fam-Icon-267x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/MFL-Fam-Icon-267x400.jpg 267w,

center;\"><em>Make sure to hit the park icons<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The number one place to take family photos throughout Walt Disney World is in front of the icons at each park. \u00a0Although this isn\u2019t a unique idea, it is still one of the top places to get those family photos done. \u00a0At Magic Kingdom make sure to stop in front of Cinderella\u2019s Castle, in Disney&#8217;s Hollywood Studios you can choose from the Chinese Theatre or Tower of Terror, Disney&#8217;s Animal Kingdom has the amazing Tree of Life and at Epcot you have Spaceship Earth. \u00a0Each of these icons offer wonderful backdrops for your family photos. \u00a0I try to take a family picture each day in front of these icons to help document where we spent our vacation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Favorite Rides<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-51983\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/MFL-Fam-Splsh-300x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\"

center;\"><em>Take pictures outside your favorite rides<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Another great place to take family photos is in front of your favorite rides at each park. \u00a0This is a great way to capture your favorites together as a family. \u00a0Make the photos even more special by adding in your emotions that connect to the ride. \u00a0Scream like you do on Tower of Terror or laugh like you do on Toy Story Mania or even pretend you are singing like you do in It\u2019s a Small World (you know you do). \u00a0Taking pictures together outside your favorite ride or even show is a great way to help capture your memories.<\/p>\n<h3>Mickey Mouse<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-51982\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/MFL-Fam-Mickey-267x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\"

center;\"><em>Don&#8217;t forget to get a photo with the main mouse<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite family picture is of all of us with Mickey Mouse. \u00a0We normally get this picture in the Magic Kingdom however you can find the big cheese throughout all the four parks and sometimes (though rare) even in some resorts. \u00a0I enjoy Magic Kingdom as this Mickey has the ability to interact more with guests through tricks, questions and even singing happy birthday. \u00a0\u00a0We have been able to capture some great joyful moments while visiting Mickey. \u00a0These pictures really show the joy and magic that is Disney. \u00a0Having a picture with Mickey Mouse captures what Walt Disney World is all about.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Non Park Icons<\/h3>\n<p>As you can imagine there are numerous places throughout the Walt Disney World parks that offer amazing opportunities for pictures. \u00a0\u00a0Take advantage of these lesser known places in each of the four parks to take pictures of the family.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><i>Magic Kingdom<\/i><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
