All About the Photo Packages on Disney Cruise Line

Check Shutters hours on the Navigation app so you know when they are open. These are printed photos that you pick up at the end of your cruise and take home with you. Great for those who like to scrapbook, or display in a photo book or even to frame and put on your wall. Alison Meacham is the founder of EverythingMouse Disney Blog.

PhotoPass and Memory Maker in the parks can absolutely be split among many, but Disney Cruise Line is a bit different. As long as at least one person from the purchasing state room is in the photo, it will be included in the download regardless of who else is in the photo. If you’re rooming next to your besties and everyone takes a big group photo, it will be included.

If I wanted to get their pictures as well, I could do this at 50% discount (off the onboard purchase price) by stopping at the Shutters photo desk during my sailing. In another example, I recently traveled on the Disney Wish with friends. They were in one stateroom and I (an adult) was in my own stateroom, but our reservations were linked and we ate dinner together and participated in some Port Adventures together. My friends opted to purchase the photo package and I did not.

While there, you can also get access to download images while onboard. If you don’t do this, you can also download everything all at once after the voyage. I’ve had hit or miss luck with downloading everything at the end, so I’ll probably stick with downloading throughout the sailing. While it can seem a little pricy for digital images, the amount and variety we’ve received easily compares to and actually comes in lower than a lot of portrait photographers on land. If you are buying photo prints a la carte, you can do so any day of your cruise at Shutters during normal operating hours.

Is a Disney cruise photo package worth it?

The line will get longer as the morning progresses, so be sure to arrive early. At your departure port, Disney Cruise Line will swipe your Key to the World Card and take the first of many cruise vacation photos. I know that is a lot of information and I have probably left something out.

It’s about the stateroom – if you don’t have someone in the photo who has a package it will not be included in the package. They want to know how to make the Disney cruise line photo package work most economically for them. All of your Disney cruise photos used to be printed out. Dramatic video captured the moment a pregnant woman suffering medical complications was airlifted from a Disney cruise ship. Over the past decade, I've taken eight Disney cruises with my family and friends.

They are banking on you seeing their professional photos, falling in love and wanting to purchase them. To select the package that is best for you, visit  Our Cruise Photos. This is the third party photography service that is responsible for Disney Cruise Line’s photo packages. You will be prompted to select your ship and sail date. One of the best aspects of the DCL photo packages is that there are several options to choose from.

Photos are of course an amazing way to capture the memories of your Disney Cruise. Here is our complete guide to all the options of the Disney Cruise Photo Package to help you decide if it is worth it. The Coast Guard also deployed an HC-144 Ocean Sentry aircraft from Air Station Miami to rendezvous with the cruise ship. The postcards I use can be found in the desk drawer of Disney Cruise Line staterooms, and are free to take. If you don't want to send the cute postcards off, you can also keep them as souvenirs.

If they’ll want photos with just their family, then they would purchase their own package. There is an option to pre-order some items prior to your cruise by visiting mycruisephotos.com. I have never done this but I have heard that the packages are 15% cheaper than what you will find onboard but I cannot personally verify this. Hopefully one of my readers can speak to that in the comments below. Even if you don’t want to preorder, visiting the site will give you access to some ideas of the prices for sailings within the next 2 months or so.

There's also a bronze sculpture of Cinderella herself and a chandelier that was constructed to look like an upside-down version of her twirling dress. As you can see in our first-look array of Disney Wish photos below, it's a vessel heavy on technology, as well as magic. So, it’s almost definitely cheaper to buy the full package on a per photo basis. One off photos are currently priced at $20 each or 10 for $150, 20 for $250. All of these photos are attached to an account under your room number. It would be easy to spend half your cruise waiting in line for pictures.

You can tap your Key to the World Card or DisneyBand+ on the kiosk reader and you’ll be able to view the shots taken during your sailing. You can, however, make the package more valuable by taking advantage of the photographers as much as possible. My family tends to buy the photo package on every second or third sailing. On sailings where we know we’re buying the package, we make a game of seeing how many photos we can have the onboard photographers take of us. This works out perfectly for my family since we usually get two rooms for our family of 5. They will be happy to take as many photos as you would like with their camera even if you have not purchased a photo package.

If you’re thinking about selling something with a DCL photographer image on it, make sure you’re complying with the legal agreement and consult counsel if necessary. I’ve found that most of the DCL onboard photos are adequate to good, but rarely excellent. Are you couple of frequent DCL cruisers on a quick 3-night jaunt. If you are buying prints a la carte, you can do so at Shutters on any day of your cruise when they are open except on the last day. If you want to receive every photo of every person in your party you will need to purchase one package per stateroom. Just ask the DCL photographers to snap a shot with your personal camera and they will gladly do so after they have taken a few with their fancy camera first.

Just like in the Disney theme parks, you’re welcome to pose for photos for free. But if you want to download any pictures or keep any of the images taken by the onboard professional photographers, you’ll have to pay. You will have to decide on your photography purchases before leaving because there is no option to purchase pictures once you leave the ship… or so they say. You can contact their customer support and see if they can find your photos.
