Title: photo souvenir pass
Post by: mickeymike on July 13, 2014, 11:26:09 PM
Hi guys!
I was wondering how do you get a photo souvenir pass?
And can you also get a + pack? And what price do they ask for? Cause I'm planning a next dlrp trip for 3 days this November.

Thanks! °o°

There is a Photopass+ pack scheduled to be available from August, which you will be able to buy at DLP and use it to load on-ride photos as well as photos taken with characters such as Mickey or Disney Princesses. There are also a website and an app available, where you can create an account and manage all the photos that have been loaded onto the Photopass+ card. You can download your photos or even order prints and have them delivered at home. The Photopass+ pack will cost €49,99 (offer price) and will include an exclusive lanyard card holder, a main card and two mini cards.

Visit www.disneyphotopass.eu for more information.

I'm confused on what this photo pass is - is this something that you can load all the photos they take of you in DLP and then choose which ones you want to purchase ?

Yes, that's part of the idea. What happens is that all your photo's (linked to your photo pass) are uploaded to a website where you can choose to purchase some or all of the photos. Either in print or digital download. Photos will be stored for a year, so you don't have to choose and order on the last afternoon of your DLP visit, but can do so the week after when you are at home and have plenty of time.
Photos can be added in a window of 10 days, starting with the first photo taken and remain available online for a year to order. To link a photo to your pass just present your photo pass to the photographer that takes the picture. He'll scan your card and that's it. Also onride photos can be added to the pass. Either by scanning a QR code on the monitor or presenting your photo pass at the booth.
The welcome package will be a nice price to have all your photos (no selecting needed) for a fixed price. It seems to me as a good deal.

If there's more than one of you and you have a lot of photos taken I agree it is a good deal.  However I'm going solo in September and will probably only have a couple of photos taken so for me the normal photo pass is a better and cheaper option.  I'll just pay for the photos to be printed while I'm there as I did last time I was there in 2004.

You apparently can add the photo pass+ onto your booking if y have booked direct with DLP and doing this means you get a special offer price of 39.99e.

That's really useful, thank you!

We've paid our balance but I think I will ring and add this to ours. Last year we purchased 20 photos, so I think this will be a much cheaper option for us x

How much are individual photo's typically, we have not been for quite a few years so I'm sure prices have gone up since....

So let me get this right (sorry) if you upload all park, studio etc photo's taken by DLP onto the photopass and pay the 40 euros then you can have all the photos printed for no extra cost at a large size or wil it be 7 x5 for e.g.

Sorry just trying to work out if it is worth adding (2 adults & 2 young kids) before we leave

I sent them an email through the Photopass site asking if I could buy the package in advance and they told me that I can buy it at the park when I visit in September. Not sure if anything has changed since.

If I'm not mistaken the 39,99 € offer price is for the Photopass+ kit only and it doesn't include free prints. But I believe it's a great value for money for someone who stays at the Park for 3 days or more, as you can get lots of photos loaded onto the card and then choose which ones you want printed. Plus, all images loaded onto the card are yours to download and keep forever. You can even share them with your friends on social networks.

What's the differnce between the photopass and photopass+ ?
Title: Re: photo souvenir pass
Post by: DisneyManiac on July 24, 2014, 11:02:11 AM
PhotoPass was the original way. Get all your pics on a card and print them (if you want) then that was really it.
PhotoPass+ allows you access all photos at home or on a mobile device.  You can either print, download or share them to social networks.
Title: Re: photo souvenir pass
Post by: swindonboy on July 24, 2014, 01:59:45 PM
So your paying the 39.99 to be able to have access to all the photos taken and download them and print what you want wherever you want (e.g. snapfish, tesco etc) and own the copyright or do you still have to order the photo's through the disney site
Title: Re: photo souvenir pass
Post by: DisneyManiac on July 24, 2014, 02:27:45 PM
Well msRavenswood answers that question, yes!

By paying 39.99 e, you can get all the photos that taken at the parks and will stay on your account for 1 year after that, they are deleted. But you can just download them and print whatever one you want!
Title: Re: photo souvenir pass
Post by: swindonboy on July 24, 2014, 05:47:04 PM
I'll put a call into DLP and see if I can get this added to the account before we go I reckon

If you download the photo pass+ app it states you can buy it in advance! the offer price was info gained off the dibb.

It does indeed state it in the app FAQs, but it doesn't on the Photopass site FAQs. Also, when I contacted the customer service three weeks ago to ask if the card is available in advance they told me that I can get it at the park when I visit in September as it will be released August. What's more, it would supposedly be launched in July and yet the CMs at the park hadn't even heard of the new + service! Looks like the site and app are up and running but the CMs aren't properly informed.

If anyone contacts DLP about the Photopass+, please let us know.

No, for that price you get the digital download and must print yourself. No prints included in the 40 euro package.
Prints can be ordered when in the park or online (as plain prints, calendars, photo books, mugs, etc...) on the site:

Just got a response from Disney:

Thank you for your enquiry.

The PhotoPass website is designed to receive digital image files that were purchased during a visit to Disneyland Paris, either as individual photos, or as a "Portfolio" of all photos taken during the stay with PhotoPass+.
This is a new service which is planned for release from the end of August. Although the exact date has not been fixed yet.

We would advise that you enquire at the hotel shop, if you are staying in one of our Disney hotels, or at any photo sales point in the Parks, to determine whether the product is available when you are here.

For your information, PhotoPass+ will have a retail price of 49.99€

We hope that you may have the opportunity to use the PhotoPass+ service in a future visit.

Best regards

Disney PhotoPass Support team

Hopefully this will be live in 2 weeks when we go !!

The official Twitter account of DLP tweeted about the service, but still no word about its release date. It would supposedly be available in August, but nothing yet...

Are there going to be Photographers in the park during Extra Magic Hours, seeing as we won't have Characters in the hotel anymore, and therefore won't get our picture taken there?

Just thinking if the photos are only going to be Ride Photos, it's not really worth it as I'm not hugely bothered about ride  photos.

Thanks! :)

Oh no, it's not just Ride Photos, every Meet 'n' Greet that has a photographer is eligible to Photopass services!

With EMH, likely yes! Although I do not know.
