Breaking NEWS PHOTO SESSIONS!!!!!! :-)

Any suggestions for looking picture ready with jackets on?

all dark colored, or all light colored jackets. And coordinating scarves and/or hats.

 

[jenseib]

I personally would brave the cold for the pictures, if you have outfits picked out already.

Coordinating fleece might look nice.

Thanks for the ideas. I'm still debating.

I think we're going to brave it without jackets, but I still can't wear what I wanted to. All the guys have jeans and polos, but I was going to wear a sleeveless dress with sandals! I've gone through my closet and have a few options, they just aren't my first choice and won't look as nice colorwise IMO.

I just booked us at the Poly for a 40 minute session. There are 4 different "groups" of us...12 people total.

I too am stuck on what to wear! I am hoping that the weather warms up just a wee bit before we get there.

ooh maybe you could run out and find a sweater dress?? TJ Maxx (or Marshalls, Kohl's) has a nice selection for a decent price.

You could wear it with boots, would look really cute. Is there another female in the pictures with you?

I wore sweater dresses and boots when I was in my 20's, but couldn't exactly carry it off right now! (I'm a little too "stocky") I'm the only female and everyone else is wearing jeans and polos, so I'm trying not to look out of place. I'm thinking slacks or jeans and a sweater.

Recently back, thought I'd share, as I know I love getting ideas from everyone's photos!

Did two photoshoots - one at Poly, other at WLodge. Had planned on WLodge, but had never done at Poly before, so wanted to try it also! Would have been better if didn't have sun issues. WLodge was at 4:00 our appointment, so no sun! Had fantastic photographer both times named Beth. Liked her at the Poly, so when went to WL and saw she was our photographer again, was happy!

Had a tough time figuring out what kids would wear. What they are wearing for WL is what they were supposed to wear to Poly - but was such a hot day said eh, just keep on whatever you're wearing. But ended up that I like what they are wearing for the WL pics. This is our second year doing WL during our Thanksgiving trip - and yep, will do again next year also!

 

[jenseib]

I love your pictures! did you have to pay full price for both sessions, or did they do it like an extended session?

 

[EeyoreFan5]

I just suddenly booked a trip...Its been a year & things have changed. When can I book a session?

I had two coupons for 20% off. Did the CD for both. I think each with 20% off and then plus tax was $83, $85-ish each. The one for WL I also got 5 prints with - because I had booked that early before they changed over the packages or something.... but when picking out my 5 prints, she pulled up both sessions and I picked from both of them which 5 I wanted. Had thought about doing the - isn't there a $49 package with just prints? Was going to do that for one session, but then said eh, just do the cd.

Then I come home and load them onto walmart.com and order my prints and enlargements from there - and gotta say, for a great price they always print out really nice from there. Usually give the 5 prints included in the package to family, as I like the walmart quality of printing better than disney. Go figure!
Should have done just WL, got more pics from that session that I liked better than the Poly. Did like the Poly, but in the end preffered the WL pics. but we really wanted to try a session at the Poly. Next trip is July - and oh, no... too hot to be all sweaty in pics, so figured eh, do it now!
I think I prefer the WL ones because kids are matching, and got more shots of my son in there - he's autistic, and really tough to get a picture of! Gotta say, the shot on the bridge with his twin is the BEST picture I have ever gotten of him!

Hi there. I was a newbie to the whole photopass stuff and did not pre-order my CD. We did do a family photo shoot for $99 at the Poly and I got a CD of that. I thought I remembered reading that for that $99, I could have gotten the photo shoot, PLUS any photopass photos that were taken BEFORE the photo shoot. Is that right? I am just looking at what I can do because my account expires on the 28th and I really want the photopass CD with all the park pics that were taken, but I don't want to spend $149!

Any input?

No you are not correct. If you preordered the photopass CD, that would've been $99 and then you still had to pay the $99 for the family shoot. But you could've then added your photoshoot to your photopass as well to add borders, etc. But being that you did not preorder the CD you cannot get a discount on it it now. So if you want the park pictures, it will still cost 149. If you had your photoshoot added to a photopass card, you can still add borders etc on the photopass site. If you didn't, then I don't think there is anything you can do about that now. But basically you have to buy both. They are seperate things. But they just allow you to add them to photopass if you bought the CD at the photoshoot.
So to sum it all up if you want both you have to pay a minimum of $200 (with the preorder price) to get all the pictures.

Just booked for March for 8:30 at the GF. Having DD's 8th grade graduation pictures along with family photos (3 of us) taken. Already have DD's dress...gotta get coordinating colors for DH and myself.

 

[boltfan]

Had a great photo session at GF. Had 164 pics taken of which about 25 came out great. Luckily I had booked back in August so I got the CD AND the print package. We were running late, but their computer system was messed up, so they were also running late. The only problem was it was only about 35 degrees outside!! Needless to say we took most of our photos inside. Hopefully the 5 I'm trying to post will show! If it works I'll add more.

No they are not showing. I tried to see if I could fix the link since what you have isn't right

 

[jenseib]

Yep that worked

 

[boltfan]

Yep that worked

That's strange, because I still can't see them! I've tried 3 different sizes through photobucket and still don't show up!

Can you see them in my quote though? Thats where I fixed the links. You are posting too much. You just need to click on the pick and a drop box comes down then click on the link that starts with
