I'm so glad to know that some CMs don't mind this!! We took the KTTK tour on our Disney wedding/honeymoon trip and asked our tour guide if we could take a picture with him at the end of our tour. We wanted the memory of our honeymoon trip, it was right before they changed their costumes, and he was a WONDERFUL guide! He seemed a little reluctant, so I felt bad the rest of our trip because I hoped he wasn't just complying to please a guest. We've never asked another CM since then because we didn't want them to feel obligated. I hope he was ok with it because we got a GREAT picture out of it that I have in my office even now, 4 years later!!
Well, I can't speak for your CM, but I do want to comment that any reluctance almost always tends to be more of a "what, they want a picure/autograph of little ol' me? Really? I'm not a character or a performer, but they think I am special?" It's much more a humbleness and in awe reaction. Maybe the other CM can relate, but any time I got asked for a pic (never got the autograph quesion, and only a couple times a pic) I was hit with a little bit of "shock", so any stuttered "ok", or "really?" was definitely because I was just in awed surprise that I was thought "worthy" of a picture. But you better believe that all throught the rest of the day I was smiling, and for much longer after, anytime it popped and still pops in my head.
