Anyone have a link to this site. I did it last year, and it worked out great. Thanks.
mcj79 said:We are going April 23- May 1, how do I find a group?
Also, If we get the photo pass do we still have to pay for the prints? Is there a different charge for larger prints? If so how much? Is there a discount with the photo pass for calendars & other items..? Shipping?
And how does the photo pass sharing work? Has anyone had a problem with false deals/ money being taken with out getting the photo pass?
Does disney really allow in related travel groups to share the same pass? What if our dates are a few days off of each other? We all get the same pass number and then add our cards later? Is there a limit to the number of cards/people on each photo pass? How long do we have to edit the photos & order? Will they allow different credit cards/billing addresses and shipping addresses?
Please feel free to PM or email me.
Help?!?!?! and Thanks!
hmm, so sorry didn't realize the sharing thing was not on the up & up. I think we will just get our own. We have never been to Disney and this is a adult/couple trip so we were trying to learn more about it before buying. It seems a little silly to spend so much on pictures for just us & know kids, but are hoping to get some really nice pictures. We have not had nice professional pictures taken sense our wedding!
So, if you can help me out here...
What happens when I order the PhotoPass? Do they send me a card/tag in the mail or do I get this at the resort? (Staying onsite) If you order the regular photopass, they will send you a card as part of your package reservation booklet. It is not a special card. It is a normal Photopass card. We just leave that one at home and get one from the first photographer we see. If you order the Photopass PLUS, they will send you a voucher that you must bring with you to exchange for a hard plus card. This is the card that must be present for ride photos and meal photos. All other photos can go on that hard card OR a regular Photopass card.
Okay, so when you order the Photo Pass you get up to 30 days worth of use and another 30 days after you trip to edit your pictures? For regular Photopass, you get 30 days to enter your card number(s) and then 30 days from the date they are entered to edit your pics with different borders and sizes. The Photopass PLUS card is valid for 14 days once it is first used, but the entering and editing timeframes are the same.
And we can upload any pictures to edit & add Disney themed boards & such?? Only Photopass pics will be included on your CD. No personal photos can be added, but they do have a Personal Archive CD that has very, very limited border options that can be added. It is about $20, but the borders are very basic, not like the Photopass borders at all.
Once we have done the editing they send us a CD with or digital copy with all of our pictures? Yes. Once you complete your editing, you add the Photopass CD to your shopping cart. If you preorder the regular photopass, you have to pay shipping (about $4). If you preorder the Photopass PLUS, the shipping is included and you have to enter the code that is mailed to you before your trip.You must save any photos with borders or signatures in the size you wish to print. The default size for all photos is 4x6, so make sure you save your favorites in bigger sizes so they will print correctly.
At that point we have the right to reproduce/print the for our own use in anyway we would like at anyplace (Walgreens/shutterfly and so forth)? Yes
If I want to order a Disney after I have my CD & after the 30 days can I think go back to their website and create on with my CD/photos? You can upload any photo from your CD and create anything you want on the site at any time.
On our arrival date we are getting in late most of the parks will be closed or almost closed. But my understanding is there are some photo pass locations in Downtown Disney so we could start our using out PhotoPass that night right? Does anyone know where or how late the photopass people & places are open in Downtown Disney?The only Photopass location I know of at DTD is the BBB, so maybe someone else can give you more info on that.
Thanks.![]()
smitch425 did a very good job of giving you a Reader's Digest version of what Photopass involves. I recommend that you check out this website for a more detailed look at how it works. They have a great amount of information on where to get your magic shots and the locations of the Photpass Photographers in each park.hmm, so sorry didn't realize the sharing thing was not on the up & up.

Hi,
I am looking to share a photo pass if anyone is interested, but I'm confused how to go about it. We were there January 27-February 1, 2014.
Thanks!
How long does it take to get approved. We are leaving Thursday and I made my request yesterday to the FB group and still not approved.![]()
