Bucket List: Anniversary photo shoot at Disneyland
One of the items on my Disney Bucket List was to have an in-park photo shoot. You can’t do them at Disney World unless you go directly through Disney photography – and not only is that a ton of money, you don’t get to choose your photographer! So we decided to do an anniversary photo […]
