Can anyone tell me the prices of the pictures they take and do you get a discount for like buying more than 1 or 2... does anyone have any they can share ? I would love to see how they do it.. and how many do they usually take?? I can't wait for our trip!

Thanks for any advice!

I am so excited.. and so is my little 3 yr old princess!

I have had very good luck with PhotoPass. The 5x7's are about $12.95 and the 8x10s are in the $18 range. There are discounts for AP holders and maybe DVC folks. I don't know of any others out there.

As far as how many they take, it all depends on the photographer. I have had some photographers take as many as 7 at one time and others only 2 or 3. The nice thing about these photos is that when I get home, they are there on my computer and I can mess around with them. Some I have zoomed in and it has turned into a whole different photo. If I couldn't have done that I would not have bought the photo...just didn't like the distance or what might have been in the shot. So, Disney gets more of my money because of this system. Also, some of the photographers will have the adults stand out of a few shots. This way only the little ones are in the photo and who can resist a shot of just the kids??? Very smart Disney!!

Adding to this question, when I booked through CRO, they said something about 1 free photo with my package. Has anyone gotten this and how does it work?

I ordered 4 5 x7's and just got them yesterday. Since my order was over $50 I got a 20% discount. I did not know there was a special for AP holders!
Anyway, I think if you buy over $100 worth - the discount is 30%.

I would like to know this as well. I received a coupon in my intro packet for a free photopass picture. What do you get?
Only 2 days to go!!!!

I'm assuming with this photopass, that you cannot print the pictues yourself from your printer, can you?

Correct.

You can pick prints up later that day at the park where they were taken, or you can do what I did and not even think of looking at them there but instead accessed them online. I didn't want to have to mess with transporting expensive prints.

Online, all you're able to do is view them and buy them. You can also crop them and add a border or logo. You can't print them directly, you can't "right click" and save them to your computer.

I bought 5 prints.

Separate from PhotoPass, if you go to Hoop Dee Doo Revue they take your photo outside before you go inside to be seated. Once inside, they show you the prints and offer them for sale at that time, take it or leave it (no Internet access, etc.).

The photos on the photopass website are fairly small with low resolution. The only way to get high resolution prints is to purchase them. So even if you were to print the ones you see on the website, they wouldn't come out very clear in the print. You can get an idea of how they look by checking out my PhotoPass page in my signature.

I was referring to the Magical Express packet that contains your luggage tags. And I apologize, what I thought was a coupon was actually just an advertisment. I should read more carefully before posting!
I leave tomorrow!
