Hi Everyone,

I know i've been going on and on about our professional pictures, but, we just got them back today, the actual physical proofs, and I cannot stress enough how beautiful they are.

Mickey had actually pm'd me about posting with some info, he must have missed the previous posts;) . So here it goes: I found out about this service through the Disney Club newsletter, DClub members receive 10% off sitting fee. You and your family, group, etc, can have your pictures taken anywhere in WDW, resorts, parks..the sittiing fee depends on the amount of people in your group, for 3 people (and I think it's up to 6) it was $275-10%. They tell you you will receive between 12-24 photos, we got 37. We choose (with guidance from photographer) to do the MK. We made our appointment for 10AM 2 days after we arrived to WDW. We met our photographer, Vicki, in the Rose Garden, in front of the castle. She took several family pictures there. As we were finishing up, Goofy came by to sign autographs, and she was able to grab him for us, and we got 2 great shots!

She then took us over to Belle's Storybook area, on the way we passed Pluto, a DD favorite, she offered to stand in line with us and take some shots, I said no only because I didn't want it to cut into our time. At the storybook area she took several family poses, then we did DD and me, DD and DH, me and DH, and LOTS of DD by herself. The whole "shoot" took about 30 minutes, they told us to plan on an hour.

Now, as for the price, these are professional photographers, and the pictures show that. Later in the day Vicki had a wedding to do.
You are able to view online in 2 weeks. And then they come in the mail in 4 weeks, what a beautiful presentation. 12 pictures come in a portfolio, one like you get when you do senior pictures for school, then the rest come in a box, very nice.
If anyone is thinking about doing family pictures, I would say it is really worth looking into. You can do them anywhere you want, the photog's know the best location at each place. iluvwdw is having hers done in Dec at the Floridian, with the gingerbread house and all, I can't wait to see hers!! Sorry to ramble, I just wanted to get all the info out. If anyone missed seeing mine who is intrested just respond to this thread, or PM me, I'll get ya the info!
