The Best Cinderella Castle Photo Spots
No Disney World vacation photo album is complete without a picture of the iconic Cinderella Castle, and you might be tempted to just stand at the top of Main Street USA and point your camera front and square for that classic castle shot.
But today I’m sharing 19 more creative shots of the castle for you to try out for yourself! You’ll end up with a magical photo that’s not only worthy of your instagram feed but also of framing and putting up on your wall!

Try to capture the details
Not all of your photos of Cinderella Castle need to be straight on or include the whole castle, try getting up close or down low and capture some of the details.
Or include your children
Don’t forget your family when you’re capturing the beauty of Cinderella’s Castle! Katie has spent hours mastering the art of taking adorable pictures of her kids in front of the Castle and if you click here you can get her FREE guide where she’ll tell you all of her secrets so you can do it too!

From lowdown off to the side of the Partners statue
So that you get the full view of Cinderella Castle in along side the statue of Walt showing Mickey the view down Main Street.
In front of the Partners statue
This shot works best when crowds are low, so you might need an early morning breakfast reservation at one of the Magic Kingdom restaurants.

This night time shot is stunning but if you can capture it during the fireworks you have a pretty magical shot of Cinderella Castle for your scrapbook!
From behind your Minnie Ears
Or put your Minnie Sucker in the picture instead
Capturing Cinderella’s Castle as the background of a “food selfie” is pretty popular on Instagram right now! There are so many fabulous looking snacks available at Disney World you might as well take pictures of them to show your friends!
During the Fireworks spectacular
From the bridge into Liberty Square
This is one of my favourite places to take a photo of the castle, from the bridge crossing into Liberty Square. Throw in a sunset and you’ve got a memorable photograph!
Or from Tomorrowland
During the afternoon parade
If you watch the parade from just in front of the castle you can capture any of your favourite floats with the castle behind. This one of Minnie and Mickey in their hot air balloon is my favorite.
All lit up for the Holidays
As the Holidays approach the castle is covered with fairy lights and it’s the perfect time of year to get a different shot of the castle.
Tilt your camera
From behind a bunch of balloons
Keep your eyes peeled for the cast member selling balloons on Main Street for an excellent castle photo opportunity!
In the rain
Don’t be put off if it rains during your trip, a stormy night is the perfect time to capture the castle looking magical!
