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

Hi All……..I’m not sure if this info has been posted. But I did call Disney/POLY and Beach Club and was told the following information (I called both resorts to make sure I wasn’t going to be getting conflicting info)

There are many choices now for a photo shoot and also regarding the Disney Photo Pass.

If you choose to do a private sitting at one of the resort hotels Here are some options

$49.99 + tax (6%) it includes 20 min with the photographer it about 60 to 80 shots
1 of the following Choices
Two 5x7 + 6 poses 2 of each 4 sets of 4x6 so that would be 10 prints all together

Or

Seven 5x7’s

Or

Two 8x10’s + Three 5x7’s


2nd Option
99.95 + tax (6%)
You get the CD of ONLY your photo shoot plus one choice of the above.
This has changed because your no longer allowed to add you park photo’s you take in the theme parks to the CD

There is a different option NOW with the Photo Pass while being in the park
$149.99 + tax (6%) and that includes all your pics in the park you can take your CD home and edit the pictures if you wish (add borders, black & white ETC) this doesn’t include any photo session. This to me doesn’t sound like a very economical option. Because you still get the photopass card and can go home a pick your pic’s and edit them. They did say thou that prints start at 12.00 or so.

I hope this info was helpful :flower3:.
 
Ok thanks,, i was not sure if you could edit the photos on the photopass site or do you mean edit the photos of the CD on my PC?

I'm sorry, the way I said that was confusing! I meant that you edit the photos on the photopass site before you order the CD. I really liked the look of the black & white ones!
 
Here's a few from our photo session at Animal Kingdom Lodge in early June. It was hot. But, the photographer worked with us and was very patient with my little kiddos. She also accomodated all our ideas. She took family shots inside on the stairs and sitting in a few areas and then outside. Then we did the kiddos together and by themselves. The Lodge is beautiful and the pictures turned out wonderfully. I wish we'd had some with animals behind us, but I forgot to ask and she didn't bring it up.

I posted some of these in a different thread but I'm not sure where that one went...

Did they happen to mention anything about the discount for pre-ordering the PhotoPass CD?? I'm just wondering if that is still an option. I think it was that you could get the $99 package for $70.
 
We had our session at the GF on Friday and will post photos ASAP! We got the package for $70. (for pre-ordering the Photopass CD) We also received the Photopass card that he used so we can add them to our CD when we order it. :goodvibes
 
So I booked the Poly resort shoot this morning for early September at 5:30pm, which is the last time slot..... and now I'm concerned about lighting.... I'm really worried that the pictures will turn out too dark but I believe the sun doesn't set until around 7:30 in September.... has anyone else done the 5:30 in September and how did your pics turn out? I'm really thinking of calling to change it and make it earlier in the AM..... also, I had planned on dressing up and wearing my new black dress but other posts I've read had said they suggest to wear light colors, can I ask what is wrong with wearing black? Also, if you don't like any of the pictures taken, do you get a refund? And if you want an extra half hour, do you have to decide that before the shoot, or while its going, can you make the decision to add time on? Thanks for any info!!!
 
OK! I have a stupid question but do you pay for the package when you make the appt? or when you get the session done? or get there?

Cant speak for the poly specifically, but we had our photoshoot last September at Beach Club at 5pm - they were taking pictures until about 5:45 and we didnt have any darkness issues! Hopefully you wont either - although I would suggest getting there a bit early just incase they can take you early to really avoid any concerns!

Yes we did the poly last Sept at 5:30 or 6pm and it was good outside, except when she took us on the hill past the beach, the sun was in our eyes.
The pictures outside were not dark at all. This year we are trying the Beach Club resort for the photopass session.
 
Brianheather, could you possibly post some of your photos from your 530 Sept session at Poly? I'd love to see! Thanks!
 
I just booked a photo shoot for 4:15 at the Wilderness Lodge on Aug 24th. I'm worried that it's going to be too hot, but that time worked out perfect since we have a 6pm ADR at Trails End at FW. Does anyone have any insight into this? Do they take pictures inside if it's too hot and humid outside? Does anyone have any WL pics they could share with me? I didn't want the typical beach pictures as both my parents and in-law recently got beach photo shoots done in Myrtle Beach and we wanted something different. I'd love to see the way the WL photos turn out.

Thanks!

Ok- about the black dress thing- I don't see a problem with it- I know when we get pictures down the shore its either white/khaki/black/jean ...some combination of that.
 
We had a shoot at the poly on August 14th and it was wonderful! we had it at 930 am and although the sun was in our eyes for the outdoor photos she just had our eyes closed until the count of three and they turned out wonderful! I am sorry, I cannot remember the girls name, but we had 139 photos that turned out great with eight of us in the group no less! She also gave us a photopass card beside the cd. We were very pleased!
 
does anyone have any current pricing info if you book 2 sessions? I do plan to pre-purchase the regular photopass so I know the session is typically $70 but if I book 2 sessions are they $70 each?
