Capture Your Adventure Book Moments with a Photoshoot Opportunity
Some houses are built with bricks. This one was built with dreams.
Our Disney-authorized UP House is more than a replica — it’s a place where real memories are made.
From the moment you step onto the porch, it feels like something special is about to happen. Whether you’re capturing a proposal, a family milestone, or just making today count, our photo opportunities let you step into a space full of heart, color, and storybook charm. It’s not just a photoshoot — it’s a page from your very own Adventure Book.
Step into the living room where Carl and Ellie’s adventure began. From the iconic chairs and mantle to the cheerful mural above Paradise Falls, every detail invites you to pause, pose, and feel the magic. Combo Indoor + Outdoor sessions are limited, but unforgettable — just like the couple who inspired it.
Want more time? Book 2 photo opportunities back-to-back! You’ll get 60 minutes on our property to snap all the photos your heart desires.
