You have such a cool job right now. So many people would like to work at Disney World and play the characters but you want to quit doing it? Is the pay not so good? I agree with what others have said. Try taking some basic classes and watch alot of the online tutorials. In addition to the hardware you will also need to learn the software which is actually just as important. By the way those pictures are awesome. As an employee do you get to walk around Disney when it is closed and there are no tourists around? That would be such a great way to get great shots. Its definitely an advantage you should capitalize on while you are still working there.
