Thank you Jan for the beautiful silhouette of my family dog! Thank you to all the cast members that were courteous and welcoming once I walked in!
There are only two locations in Disneyland Park where you can get a silhouette: Silhouette Studio and Disneyana. Both stores are located on Main Street.
Disneyana is located on the right once you scan into Disneyland Park. It is a small store that can easily be missed, so make sure to read the signage. Disneyana not only offers silhouettes, but they're mainly known for selling collectible figurines and limited edition and original artwork.
It wasn't too busy when I visited. There were only 3 other guests in front of me. Once I entered, I was immediately greeted and felt welcomed. The initial Cast Member (did not catch her name) asked if I would like a silhouette done. I told her I'd like a silhouette of my family dog. She filled out a small laminated sheet and handed it to me to hold onto until my name was called. You can either wait outside or shop around inside.
I went to Jolly Holiday to grab coffee and came back. Shortly after, I was called for my turn. I had multiple photos of my family dog ready. They can ONLY take side pictures as a reference. They are very specific in the types of side pictures they can do, so make sure you're prepared. They'll let you know whether the picture is acceptable or not.
Cast Member Jan did my silhouettes. She was very sweet, quick, and efficient. She finished the silhouettes under 10 minutes. Cast Member Sarah "glued" the silhouettes onto a 5'7 paper card stock. I decided not to get it framed, but they safely placed them in a folding card.
There are two tiers: standard and premium. The standard tier is $11.99 for a human silhouette. The premium tier is $14.99 for anything other than a human silhouette. The frame is sold separately starting at $19.99. I'd say it is absolutely worth it. I love every little detail of the cut outs! They do two silhouettes. The frame is cute with 42 hidden Mickey's, or you can customize your...
Read moreUsually a great experience here but the employee by the name of Angela destroyed that for my family and I when she treated me like a criminal for taking pictures of the artwork there. She approached me in a confrontational way, unlike 99% of the other Disney employees I’ve encountered during my frequent trips there. She said the pictures were copyrighted which I understood but her tone and attitude were just way out of proportion to the offense, if you could even call it that. And to add insult to injury, after I stopped taking pictures, she had a male employee come out and tell me the same thing (as if that was going to intimidate me lol) and pretty much escalated the situation rather than let it be. I wasn’t taking anymore pictures at this point but just browsing. However, if you provoke me be prepared to finish what you start. Anyhow, I reported it to the lead and to a manager and may still report it to her union leader since it seems she will only get a slap on the...
Read moreHistoric Disney stop when at Disneyland if you enjoy Disney art. In the location of the old Bank of America building on Main St. The old vault is still visible. Constantly changing art that can be purchased and often the location of artist signing. Fun for a stop even if you don't plan on...
