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

[Couturier]

I am still working on last year's Disney scrapbooks! I am trying REALLY hard to get it done before this trip! Wish me luck!

Stacy

Me too! I just started scraping so I am starting with our last DW trip! That was 2/07, lol. I think I am going to try to do a few basic pages up ahead for the next trip, so i wont be taking forever to get them ready when we are home.

Thanks, Dana

Thank you everyone so much for the wealth of knowledge and for sharing your pictures! It sure makes planning our trip so much easier! I LOVE your photos and have decided this is something we will also do for our December trip. Now I just have to decide what resort we will do it at.

I cant wait to book this for our trip either. I am excited to see pics from the newly added resorts. Right now, I am leaning towards Poly, since that is my kids fav hotel to visit. Although I may be persuaded to switch when I see the new pics!

I thought that I had posted pictures on here, but not seeing them. Here are a few from GF. I can't wait to see some from the Poly. Please share when you get them!

How beautiful! I hate to take time away from the parks to do this, but I think I will! I just love your clothing choices! I think we might have to copy that I certainly hope you have that family shot up and framed somewhere in your home, its just beautiful! BTW, we also have a boy and a girl, the dd is older, so maybe I can see in your pics what I want mine to be like

A couple of questions:we are going with a group of 16 to celebrate my parents 50th anniversary. I will be prepurchasing the cd, but we will share it with the other family members. In other words we are only buying one cd. I would love to do this photo shoot. But with so many of us, I want one with just us, and then another with the group. It could be that other individual families would want one too. So, my question is how many sessions can I reserve at $25? Or will the group and other families have to pay $50? does that make sense? Thanks for any info!

Thanks for all of the luck! I just picked up 100 more photos from Walgreens of last year's trip. I am going to try and work on it tonight!

Thanks, Stacy

One @ $25; the rest @ $50. However, if you look at my post earlier on this thread, you'll see that we had couples pix of just the two of us, plus pix of each family group plus all 16 of us - all in the 20 minute window!

Yes, I did see that thanks! But, I'm selfish and want a whole session just for my family. We are in need of a family pic badly. Thanks for the info!

Thanks Haleysmommom!
For the sweet comments! You will have fun having pictures made and it doesn't take to long. Hope your family has a great time and I hope to see pics when you get back!

Hi Stacey,
Someone here on the DISboards posted recently that they were on the phone with the Photopass private photo session CM and they said that three more resorts were going to be available starting in August. And they thought that Beach Club was one of the three. Also Wilderness Lodge and Animal Kingdom Lodge. But nothing official has been announced that I know of.

Could someone please tell me from your experience when is a good time of day to do the photo shoot?
Thanks

my photo session was at 4 at the GF and it was CRAZY sunny still, the photographer helped by placing us in spots away from the sun and all out pictures came out great

So do you think the sun would be a little more comfy if it was planned at say 6?

Anyone know what time it gets dark in FL in Late Feb, lol.

We had ours done at the GF June 1st. We had the 6:30 time slot and we still had very bright sun in our eyes. I was a bit disappointed with the photographer who didnt stop to realize that part of us were in the sun and part werent. I chose this time because I didnt want to worry about the sun either, but the last time they schedule for is 7PM. So Im not sure what is a good time.

 

[highsmith]

Thanks Chris4Disney!
I guess I will schedule it at the Poly and we can all walk through Epcot and take the monorail. We have a dinner resrvation there one night, so I am going to see what they can do for me in conjunction with that.

I hate staged pictures, but my mom will think she has died and gone to heaven at Disney if I surprise her with this!

I do, too!! However, we did the Poly shoot, and I loved the pics! Some were posed, but others were completely not. I don't have my CD yet, but when we were by the waterfall, my DS decided to stick his tongue out (which he's never done before), and the photographer caught it on film (card? ). Granted it's a little fuzzy because it happened so fast, but they do get a lot of candids, as well.

Hi ..... Just thought I'd share that I've booked our photo session! We're doing it on Sunday, July 6th at 9:00 AM at the Poly!

When I was on the phone making the reservation, the VERY NICE CM I was speaking with actually made the suggestion that our family of 5 dress in coordinating colors. Although, we were already planning to do exactly that, I thought it was nice that he did make the suggestion for folks that may not have thought of it on their own.

We are going with the white theme as well. The girls (me, DD14 and DD11) will be in white sun dresses and the boys (DH and DS8) will be in khaki shorts with white button down shirts. Hopefully, these will work out great with the Poly setting ....... tropical flowers, beach, etc.

I just bought my dress last weekend & found it on sale! I was so excited. I've been shopping for this specific photo session for a couple of months now! Wish me luck though ...... DD14 lives with her mom & won't be here for us to go shopping for her dress until 5 days before we leave!!! Please send pixie dust ........... please

I will post photos when we return! This is probably the day I am most looking forward to on our upcoming trip! Thanks to everyone who has shared photos & information so far!

Ohhh, I would love to do it at AKL! It's my favorite resort.
