Did Disneyland bring back photos with Santa Claus this year and is it different this time?

[DodgerGirl]

I was wondering if Disneyland brought back Santa photos this year and has there been any changes made to the way the Santa Claus photos are done? Because I know that Disneyland didn't have them due to the pandemic and Santa only waved to people. Also does Santa give autographs in addition to photos or are autographs optional?

Yes, you can get photos with Santa now (not separated from him by a rope). Photopass photographers take several shots, which you can view in the app (if you have photopass, which comes with my MK so not sure how it works if you don't already have PP). The thing that's different is that you can no longer have them printed at DLR, which was a bummer.

It must be a while since they've printed them, I know when I got one in 2016 they didn't print them then
