Hello guys! I wanted to share with you my latest artwork as a Photographer. I went to Disneyworld on October the 27th as part of a school trip. So while being there, I decided to do some photoshoots with the Princesses, princes and villains who are there doing some Meet & Greets with the people. I brought some props along to make the photoshoots more complete and after that I selected and edited the pictures. I would appreciate if you could like, comment, share and review my pictures! Here's the link to the album in my Facebook Fanpage:

I would also appreciate very much if you could hit the like button for my page! https://www.facebook.com/SilvioLattuadaPhotography

Hope you like them and please let me know what you think of them. Thank you for your attention! Here's a small preview:

 
Liked! ... and love the photos! How ever did you manage to get the extra time for Maleficent to pose so many times? The CMs totally rushed everybody after the Villains Dance Mix & Mingle because of the limited time window that the villains have for taking pictures with people.
 
@Sheldoal: You should be able to see the album even if you don't have a FB account . And thank you! A lot of people have praised that Merida Portrait photo. I was extremely lucky that the actress that was representing her was extremely beautiful and knew how to pose. She even does that kind of faces Vogue models do that I just love ^_^ !

@YoSoyAhPuch: Thank you! I carried a fan for Mulan, a plastic apple for Snow White, a rose for Aurora and Maleficent, a fork for Ariel and a handmade Lantern for Rapunzel and Flynn which was my favorite.

@Shivatopia: Thank you very much! Your comments are very appreciated. As for the extra time to get the Maleficent pictures, I was the first person in line and the CM was busy directing the rest of the people in line, so the gave me some time. But when she saw I was taking lots of pictures, she got mad and said to her partner: "Tell this guy that his time is over (refering to me), it's supposed to be one picture per guest". So I managed to take 5 pictures. Luckily all of them turned perfect, as sometimes you can get some blurry pictures, specially at night. I also have a similar problem with the CM who was with Pocahontas, after I took her photos, she scolded the actress for possing for me, poor her :S . But overall all the CMs where more than happy that I made the photoshoots with the other princesses and princes, some even where enjoying the moment with me ^_^ .

For the other members, I would appreciatte if you could like my fanpage and let me know what you think of my Disney Portafolio. Thank you for your attention!
 

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. When the MNSSHP Villains meet-and-greet sets start up, it is very chaotic. I'm glad you were able to benefit from that. The character handlers and sometimes the photopass photographers at these sorts of meet-and-greets are usually very brusk with people, and I do understand that it is because so many people want to take pictures with the villains within a very short time span--most of whom are hard to see any other time of the year at WDW. Still, the customer service level of those CMs is questionable. The characters on the other hand are always fabulous and never rush you. They really need to have the villains from the Villains Dance Mix & Mingle do meet-and-greets in-between their stage shows, perhaps in an indoor location.

I am shocked that the one character handler at Animal Kingdom park scolded Pocahontas for taking some time to pose for you. That is rather inappropriate, given that the Disney characters are the Disney Parks stars. If she were to scold Pocahontas for that, she should have waited until they were "off-stage" and not in the presence of Parks guests. If I had seen that, I would have taken down that CMs name and reported them.

The new Princess Fairytale Hall is actually very accommodating with you to take quite a bit of time with the princesses (and w/ the princes at special events) should you actually start engaging with the characters, and many of the photopass photographers there are real shutterbugs during those interactions. This past September, I went to a few of the MNSSHP dressed as Prince Philip (in his woodland outfit) and Prince Eric (in his regular outfit), which of course prompted some chatty conversations with the princesses and princes. The "real" Prince Philip, Flynn Rider, Snow White, and Snow White's Prince were particularly engaging at the Princess Fairytale Hall, as was Ariel in her Grotto.
