Disney Park Photo (CM takes them of your fam.)

[Corryn]

Hello,
Does anyone know the answer to this one:

We're going down with a very large group and we want a photo taken of our whole group in front of the castle; you know, when the CM takes your photo and you pick it up at the end of the day.....

Do we just walk up to one of them and have them take the photo or do I have to make a "reservation"?

No reservation is needed, whenever we wanted a CM to take our picture we just walked right up to them and asked. The greet thing is that with the photopass system they take your picture(s) and swipe it onto a card (or even more than one for other family members) and with the card you can view the pictures at home and order at your leisure in stead of or in combination with picking them up at the photo shop, which you can still do.

The disney visa was offering a discount on prints from the disney photo pass site and just the other day I received an email with a buy two get one free print deal from the photo pass.

You can have all your pictures from any park 'placed' on a single photo pass card, which is pretty much what we did. we still left with 3 of them because a couple of times it wasnt handy enough or i didnt realize a photographer was around to take pictures at character greets.

Are the photographers hard to find, or are they everywhere? Is there a long line up of people waiting? TIA!

I had a real hard time finding Disney photographers in MK - but in EPCOT.....they were everywhere, which is evident in my Photopass.

If you want one in front of the castle at MK there are quite a few photographers along Main St.

Hi,
In January I made PS at the Crystal Palace at 8:15am on a non-early day. There were many photographers just waiting to take our picture. I had wanted one with my daughter hoding the super-imposed Tink and it turned out fabulous! Plus there was no one else on the street behind us.
