Just purchased the digital photo package for our Southern Caribbean cruise. I want to maximize my investment. Any tips on getting the most pictures ?
I believe that DCL uses facial recognition to get those CC photos (without using KTTW card) into your folder. Just a guess, but that is probably why they photograph everyone (that stops) as you board the ship and they ask for a KTTW card then...might even happen when you check in, too. Hang around various photo op locations mentioned above and seek out official photographer at CC if they don't find you. Also, check your photo folder at least every other day. The last day is a zoo and you may find some other folks shots in with yours. There are also some stock photos that Shutters has of the ship and characters to add to your scrapbook, if needed.
If you go to the character breakfast take your own camera or phone because the photographers are not there. Seems like a perfect opportunity for them but for some reason they are not there.
We've gone to 4 character breakfasts and have always had the photographers at them. Our last cruise was just 2 months ago.
My last one was in dec on the fantasy no photographers at the character breakfast. I have been on too many cruises to get pay for pictures. One time somebody started a thread here are there photographers at the character breakfast. I answered yes. I honestly thought they were there. I Come to pay attention they are not there. Got some comments from people telling me they are not there. Which they were right but I honestly thought they were there. Maybe they have changed it. Seems like a perfect opportunity for them to be there. There are people from the wdt shows that will take your picture but on your camera.
