How does professional photography work at DL/DCA?

Hello all!

I love buying the pictures from the professional photographers at the park. When I went a few years ago, you just bought them on Main Street. Do they now have something different- like a CD or package?

Thanks!

I really wish that they would do the photopass like WDW, maybe in the future!
When we were there in September, they gave you a ticket with a claim number on it, and was told that you could see/buy it at the end of the day at a white tent that was stationed right outside of the exit. Whenever we were exiting the park at closing it was always WAYYY too busy for us to wait for. We had tired kids, and the last thing that we wanted to do was wait in a long line, and just to spend money, no doubt! LOL

I do not know how early they have the pictures available before closing. This would be the only way to beat the crowds....be one of the first ones in line when they open. But since you have to exit the park in order to get to this white tent, it may not be feasable with your family's plans. (It never was for ours.) Either no one was there, or everyone was! So most people just go on their way out of the park....

I was disappointed there wasn't a photo pass system as well! They give you the slips of paper and we had to go to the photo shop on Main Street and view them and pay for them!

You will get a little photo slip that you can turn in anytime of the day. The tents outside the park were only temporary while they refurbished the building so you can retrieve your photos at the end of main street again. But they have also added a little cart outside the gates on the west side where you can also retreive your pictures (this kiosk does open up later in the day though). The photo slip you get is good for up to 48 hours, so you if you are going to be there more than one day you can wait until the afternoon the next day to pick up your picture (when there is less of a line.) And then of course there is the photo pick up at Greeting from California in California Adventure for pictures taken there.

Thanks- it sounds like the same as when I was there a few years ago.

All our photos in October were so bad but we did use one a CM took with my camera for our Christmas card.
I am hoping for better ones next trip, but I treasure our splash mountian picture!
By the way I love my Lap-band too!

Sorry about your pictures. I love when they take the pictures so I hope mine turn out okay.

Nice meeting a fellow bandster!
