The white background is considered their "Lifestyles" portrait and we got them on both formal nights and pirate night. I'm pretty sure she was stationed there every night (in front on the gangway doors where you board in the atrium). Each night they varied another background (ship, sunset, night) and that one was set up along the windows near guest services. They also have a station in front of the stairs, usually with a character and then up on deck 4 outside of Studio Sea and also in front of Walt Disney Theater. I start early in the night. We hit the line I want most for that evening first and then go around depending on who is where. Now they make it a little easier in that the Navigator will tell you which character will be where at what time so there is no waiting around to find out you missed so and so. On the evenings that weren't Pirate or Formal the lifestyles portrait (white backdrop) is doing some really cool photos now. She (or he) has the kids jump in the air and they come out really neat. I'm excited to try this. She does spend a bit of time with each family and takes multiple poses. My favorite family portrait ever is our pirate night photo from 2005 in front of the white background. If someone walks me through Photobucket I'll post it.
We said, "No thanks!"
