Photo pass - how does it work??

[prestonsmomma]

I can't find much information on it for some reason. You get a card from the first photographer and they take your picture. Any other photographers you just hand your card to and they take your picture. Is there any charge for this??? I know there will be if you order pictures from them but what if you don't??

This is a good question! I'd love to know, too. We are going in about 4 weeks and I noticed we get a discount for having an AP, but I'm not sure how it works!! Come on, let's hear some responses!

I think it works like this..

Everytime you get your photo taken in a park you hand the photographer your card. You can either get your photos in the parks or at home on the computer. (That is what we did) There is no charge unless you order photos.

That's pretty much it! If you don't order pics there is no charge. You have about 30 days after your visit to change your mind and order prints from their website.

Sometimes you have to ask for the first card...and there's a shop just inside the entrance to MK where you can pick up a card as well.

I would strongly recommend that you check that card periodically. I know the store near the front gate lets you check it, and there is a place to check the card at Toon Town. Lots of folks have reported missing pictures and you want to make sure your images are on the card before you leave. Try to remember the names of the folks taking the pictures as well (especially if that image is particularly important) and sometimes they can find the images if they aren't on the card within a reasonable time.

When we were there in September, we went to Toon Town and had our pics taken with Minnie, Donald, and Goofy. Goofy really went out of his way to make our picture special. When we went back into the store part, we checked the images...all the ones for Minnie and Donald were there...but not the Goofy ones!! We panicked because we knew those images were going to be special. We talked to the CM's there and told them what happened and why the images were special...we described the photographer and they were able to go back to her and confirm the images were on file so we could access them!! And we used that particular image of us and Goofy for our wedding announcements (we were married in WDW the day before).

So...just keep in mind that if someone else in your group isn't taking the same picture as the CM, you might want to check the card a couple of times during the day to make sure those images get there before you leave!

Thank you so much!!!! We are thinking of giving a family picture to our parents for Christmas and this is the perfect way to do it.


OK Now let's go get packed. We leave in 39 1/2 hours.
