Hello!

There are set time for character photos on board. They are noted in the Navigator you will receive each night in your Cabin. Some lines can get long - depending on the character but they move quickly. You are definitely allowed to take photos with your own camera after the photographer does.

Sometimes you will see characters just hanging out on the decks and those make great photo ops - there is not a photographer with them at that time.

There are character photo ops at CC as well. Some are lined up as you arrive there and then they are around later on as well.

Hope that helps!

There are designated times - they are in the navigator along with the location of the characters.

2. also, are there usually lines up? how long?
I think it depends on the character and the time of day, etc. I think the longest one we were in was for Peter Pan and it was maybe 15 minutes - but with MIckey and Minnie, etc in their various costumes before/after dinner - the waits were minimal - maybe 5 minutes for most

3. can you ask the photographer to take your pic with your camera also?
Yes, although they like to use theirs first.

Yes, we posed with Donald in Castaway costumes by the post office, Cap't Jack in front of the Flying Dutchman, we also saw photos with Mickey, Goofy, etc on CC at Shutters - we didn't get any others. Again, the times are located in the daily navigator.

also in your navigator they have a number you can call to check out which characters are going to be where. We ran into lots of them coming and going from the kids area in may. and like was said before, they like to make "surprise" visits especially up on deck nine in the gazebo area of the goofy pool
