Anyone not happy with the photopass - Page 3 - The DIS Discussion Forums

Photopass is the only way my wife gets in pictures ! Otherwise she is always taking them while I take the movies. You don't have to preorder this trip. Use it see pics you like order them when you get home. Maybe hubby will see the value of preordering next trip.

We just returned from 7 days at Disney and I'm so bummed I didn't know there were different photopass options (+ and regular) or the option to preorder. When I look at my photopass account, it shows the cd is $169. Since I didn't preorder, am I now paying the same price for a regular photopass account as I would've if I preordered the photopass +?

We did dinners at CRT and Akershus, breakfasts at Ohanas and 1900. Is there a way to get these pics added to our photopass?

I think you had to do it there with in 24hrs. I am not sure though. I would call customer service and see if they can locate them.

I bought the photopass + today. I am so excited to use it..... I plan on riding all the rides that take it, so I am sure I will get my monies worth.

If you purchased the photos at those restaurants, there is a photo pass number in the upper corner. You can add this in just like you would an additional card number, and the photos will be added to your CD. If not, I am not sure.

How does the photo pass work? Does a photographer walk around with you and take pics all day or only when you're doing a meet and greet?

Disney has photographers stationed in several areas around the parks as well as the m&gs. The maps will show you where to find them. You just give them your photopass card ask them to take your pic and ask if they can do any magic shots, if you'd like little cartoon characters added. At the character meals that offer a photo, give them your photopass+ card so it can be added to your CD or you can purchase it separately if you have the regular photopass. Photopass+ also lets you add certain ride photos to your CD as part of the package.

How do you find people to do photopass share? We are going in Dec. just DH and myself. I would like to do photopass, but seems like alot of money with no kids. I do want photos with characters etc. Would be interested in knowing more about sharing as mentioned in this post. Thanks

There is a Facebook group set up. Just do a search for Disney Photopass share Facebook group. It's pretty active...but give yourself some time to get a group. It took me a couple of months. At the end of the day, I ended up setting up my own share as I wanted a photopass+ share and I couldn't get the logistics to work with the existing shares.

Thank you I will check it out.

I haven't done a character meal in years. I'm assuming there are not photopass photographers that come are with the characters to your table correct? The only place there is a photographer is with the character you meet when you come in right (ie Donald at Tusker House)?

I won't do a Disney trip without it. The one con I have is that I don't think they have enough photopass photographers. But here is a reason why I would never go without. I just don't have the skills to capture moments like this.

I LOVE PhotoPass. My daughter and I went 9/20-9/27 for a Mommy / Daughter trip. I bought the Photopass +. We ended up with over 800 pictures on our CD. Some of the pictures are just amazing. This is one of my favorites!

WILDERNESS FAN 55 · 10-10-2012, 02:15 PM

I have never bought the cd all these years but have purchased pictures from photopass. After looking at some of these pix I think I'm going for it next May!
