When we do a session at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, we like to go to both parks, including the previously neglected Disney California Adventures. Graduation photos at Disneyland is something for the bigger Disney fans that have fond memories of this ecosystem. So join us on a grad portrait session journey through Disneyland and DCA!

Starting Graduation Photos at Fantasyland

Gotta love starting the session with a Genie to grant three wishes as you transition into another phase of life!

The Sleeping Beauty Castle is an icon of not just Fantasyland, but of the whole of Disney. So of course we have to use it as an essential background for our graduation photography.

And of course it’s not a graduation photography session without a cap and gown photo.

Some more Fun Grad Photos in Toontown

Toontown is a great place for silly and fun graduation photos, with the cartoony curves and theming.

Finishing the Graduation Photos at DCA

We hopped over to Disney California Adventures to finish the session in front of the DCA Pixar Pal-A-Round ferris wheel. It’s definitely one of the most recognizable and iconic backgrounds in Orange County.

Some graduation portraits aren’t done at a school or university setting. We can choose a location or backdrop that is convenient for the graduating student, and in this case we got our Old Ranch Country Club graduation photos locally in Seal Beach. We also mixed in some family photos with her husband and little baby girl while we were at it.

Starting the Graduation Photos at the Old Ranch Country Club

We started the grad portrait session at a beautiful water fountain at the country club.

Grad Photos with the Setting Sun

We used the strong backlight of the setting sun to get a lovely warmth and glow to the graduation photos.

And whenever there is a fence, we just can’t help ourselves but to use it in the grad photos!

Our graduating student decided to have her grad photos at the nearby Old Ranch Country Club in Seal Beach, which gave us a great backdrop for graduation photography. We have many examples of graduation portraits taken of many different students from many different schools and settings. Make sure to look around our family photography blog to see many more examples of family and graduation photos in so many different locations and settings.
