What exactly is this and how much does it cost?

As I understand it:

There are professional photographers all over WDW. When you come up to the first one, have him take your picture; he'll give you a card with a number on it. The next time, hand that card to the photographer (if you have it on you; otherwise, take another) and so on throughout your trip.

After the trip, you can enter those numbers into the computer, edit them as you choose, and get a CD full of professional pictures of you and your family.

The normal cost is $125, but you can pre-order the CD for $99.
There are also a number of "shares" here, so you can decrease that price even more. (I'm doing a share with my sister and my friend, so we'll each pay $33.)

here's a better explanation: http://www.mousesavers.com/otherwdw.html#photopass

So anytime we see a photographer we can get our picture taken?
and there is no limit?

Not to bash the PhotoPass photogs in any way, because they do a good job -- but don't think of them as "professional photographers" in the sense that most of the shots they take will look way better than any of your shots. They know their way around a camera and tend to take good photos, but you should feel free to take your own shots, too.

FYI, we pre-purchased the PhotoPass CD for our upcoming trip.
