Marisa Alvarado, Photographer

Hi’ya pal, my name is Marisa Alvarado. I’m super excited to be a part of the Dad’s Guide family! I developed a deep passion for all things Disney at a very young age, intrigued by the art of animation. As an artist and avid photographer, I look to capture a bit of the Disney magic while at the most magical place on earth. When I'm not visiting the parks or collecting Disney pins, I can be found teaching art or creating works of my own in a variety of media.
