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

Sorry if this is already answered somewhere...and I am new to this posting stuff so I am apologizing ahead for the posting etiquette rules I am sure to break :-)

My question is...we will be at WDW in April '09 on the MYW Platinum Plan which includes the photopass CD as part of the plan. Does this mean we only have to pay the $25 for the GF photography session? Does anyone know what our cost for the session will be?

Thx!

Grand Floridian Photo Shoot - You can arrange for a private photo session with a Disney PhotoPass photographer at the Grand Floridian Resort. The session includes around 40 photos taken around the picturesque resort and its beach. Pricing is as follows: $49.95 for a Disney's PhotoPass card containing your photos which can then be added to your disneyphotopass.com account; $124.95 which will get you a PhotoCD with your images. If you choose to get the PhotoCD, you can save your receipt and CD and exchange it later on during your vacation for a new PhotoCD containing all of your Disney's PhotoPass images. The only catch is you won't be able to make enhancements to any of the photos; or bring the required proof that you pre-ordered the PhotoCD and the cost is only $25. Reports from guests who have participated in the photo sessions are overwhelmingly positive. Call 407-824-1700 to make reservations up to 30 days in advance or for additional information. These sessions may be extended to other deluxe level resorts in the future.

From what I understand, the price has gone up from $25 to $75 if you pre-order the CD. I called the 407 number yesterday and this is what they told me. I was a little disapointed because I had thought that it was going to be $25. Your best bet is calling the 407 number yourself and explaining that you are on the Platinum Plan.
Good luck!:thumbsup2

There is a big difference between daytime light here in the summer vs. the winter. The sun is blinding in the summer but much milder during the winter months. Does anyone know if that is true in Florida as well?

The reason I ask is that I am trying to figure out when to schedule our shoot. We are planning for our non-park day which is Dec. 11 at the WL. I would like to do the session after our late breakfast so probably around 11:45ish.

Thoughts? I'd appreciate any input. TIA!

Any thoughts on this?
 
iluvwdw4ever....BEAUTIFUL pictures!!! Everyone did such a great job...I am planning to have the whole family (5 members) pictures done on our next trip but I am so worried about getting at least one good pic of everyone. My husband & I just had ours done at GF on our "adult only" anniversary trip and it was hard enough with just the two of us! Again...WONDERFUL JOB, you should be very proud!
 
I just booked our Family Photo Session..
:woohoo: Nov 14th at 4:30 pm at the Poly...:woohoo:

I hope I picked a good day.. This is the Day we fly in.. Our flight should have us landing about 11:30, and I figured time to chill, grab a bite to eat and then get "cleaned Up" a bit.... and still have time to hit Epcot after for a couple hours, or just chill if we like...

Planning on Jeans and red polos for DS & I... DD wants to wear a denim dress... DH has a cute red plaid"ish" that looks nice on him.....Does anyone think DD will need tights in November??? She does here now, the dress she wants to wear doesn't look that great with them.....

Just tickled that it's all coming together.... Getting SOO excited !!!!

hugs

Hmm does anyone know if the email stated rate has gone up? Is that the reason.? Will they honor the old email that says $25?

Thanks for the info!

Faith (the photographer) told DS to give Jen a kiss thinking he would kiss her on the cheek... he has to give kisses on the lips so he grabbed her face and planted one on her.

That is the last of the GF photos. Next the Poly pics which are better. GF photos we were a littel tired from being at MK all day and we were a little wind blown.
 
Congrats on wonderful pics Staci!!! Altho, I have to disagree with you. I like the GF ones better. You don't like tired in the GF ones and it looks like there was some light/shading problems with the Poly ones. How wonderful they are of all parts of your family! Priceless! And the one of your sis with your son kissing her made me want to cry - Hallmark photo. If mine looked like that, I would have paid double the $75 fee!!! (unfortunately they didn't)

Thanks! The first of the Poly ones had lighting issues, but the best are yet to come! And we don't have shiny faces...
