I have been debating on the Photopass CD. We don't normally seek out the photographers as the photos are so-so from our experience. Then again, if we go knowing that a chunk of change has been paid for the CD perhaps we will do better with our smiles! ha ha
Thanks for your tip!

Disney's PhotoPass - September 2008 gives many ideas on how to make the most of it.

Yeah the rain really scares the photographers off... we have so many from our first few days and then from the last few we had such a hard time finding them!

I heard that the photographers became quite scarce because of the rain, which is a real shame.

I agree the weather kept the photographers away. I only had 31 pictures, and didn't find any photographers outside at the entrances for most of the days that it was raining

We pre-ordered the photopass CD and never once used it while on our trip 2 weeks ago. It was raining every day but the last 2 days. I sent the Photopass people and email asking how to obtain a credit and I am waiting to hear back from them. Hopefully soon, or I will have to try and call.

I guess it should have occured to me because of my raincloud that we did not see very many photographers... Oh, well.

I was there during Fay also and I managed to get over 100 pictures. Granted, I did have to hunt the photographers down. The only place I had a really hard time finding them was AK. I found them indoors at Pizzafari and only ended up with 5 pictures that day. Some of the pictures, especially indoors with Buzz and Woody are terrible because there was no light coming in through the windows.

I didn't find many photographers out either. Some of my pictures from early in the day have very dark skies in the background.

i remembered seeing on the website that if you chose not to take advantage of the photopass cd after pre-ordering it that you could get a refund.
