sk8rmomof3 Posted March 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Just curious.....we live near Cedar Point and we can purchase a season picture pass along with our season passes to get in. This means that everytime we go to Cedar Point and they take a picture of us, we can get access to it online and do with it what we want. I know the cruise ships take pictures that are for sale. Do they have a package that you can buy so you can get them all? Or is it just one price per individual picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefffrompawpaw Posted March 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 15, 2017 It's per picture and it's expensive in my opinion. They have 3 different sizes 8x10 5x7 and 4x6 if I remember right (my wife is the picture purchaser). No there isn't a package to purchase them all either like there would be at an amusement park or like a Dolphin swim for example. It's per picture, and did I mention it get expensive cause you buy so many because they are so dang good. Also there isn't real incentive to buy more , like the more you buy you get a discount or a freebie. They do have a punchcard system that gets you some stuff like a travel mug or luggage tag.

CruisingBeans Posted March 15, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Good question. We were on X 2 years ago and my brothers family got the photo package - every pic they were in they got. It was pretty funny cause on formal night they went to photo spots in their PJs. Sad that Carnival doesn't have similar for our Vista cruise. Shout out to CP. My hubby and I lived off of Cedar Point Rd for 3 yrs. Still go every summer we visit my family in Cleveland- my kids rank a weekend at CP right up there with cruising😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish they still had that option to purchase everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolalife Posted March 15, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Carnival does have a package that I purchased. It included 8-10 pictures choices, we received 8x10's and 2 large family portraits. The selling point for me was the drive that included access to the pictures to share any way that you wanted. We made Christmas cards. It was expensive... Check with you ship about any deals or packages, but none include all of the pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demib Posted March 15, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2017 We also purchased the pixels preferred package two years ago. We got every picture they took of us, a 20x30 canvas picture, a tote bag, travel mug, lanyard, luggage tag, and usb shaped like the ship with all our pictures on it for $350 or $400. I wish they still offered something like that. Sent from my SM-G928T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog73 Posted March 17, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Just off the Sunshine and there was no package like that offered other than the Dreams Studio photo shoot which is way expensive and does not include the Pixels normal daily pictures. And by the way, the normal pictures are not that expensive if you research how much a photo shoot is at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Txcamper Posted June 26, 2017 #8 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I was so hoping Carnival offered a usb photo package of all photos taken. We just got off RCCL and purchase a usb with every photo taken for $200 (212 photos), then for an additional $14, we got 5 8x10 prints. I LOVE my photos and we were able to get so many great ones, there was no way, I could of chose just a few to print and walk away with. I hope before our Carnival cruise next summer, they'll get on board with photo packages, like other lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillifiedrn Posted June 26, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Disney does that too (and I also LOVE Cedar Point, been going my entire life!), and I've always thought it would be a great idea for Carnival to do. They'd make a killing, I'd be more likely to purchase a photo package electronically than prints. I would think Carnival would save money from not printing all of the photos too?

Rare cruisewithwife Posted June 26, 2017 #10 Share Posted June 26, 2017 That would be great if they offered a package with all the images....wonder why they don't as they would be making money still and they already take all the photos anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarmat1 Posted November 6, 2017 #12 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Carnival tested out packages on various ships in the past. I know we were offered something on Valor a few years back. If I remember correctly, it was very expensive. I'm guessing the test didn't work so well for them if they're not offering anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisewithwife Posted November 6, 2017 #13 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Ya I know like Disney world does the photo thing where every pic you take is attached to a number essentially and then you pay to get all the digitals which I want to say is around $200 which I think would be worth it on the cruise for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another ship trip Posted November 7, 2017 #14 Share Posted November 7, 2017 We quit doing the portraits on cruises when packages are not offered, so we wait until our next NCL cruise (or other line) and buy the package when offered, plus we get a platinum discount. But to be honest, we have hundreds of photos from past cruises, and after a while they all start to look the same. (though still nicely done). We will usually buy the embarkation photo for our scrapbook or one photo we like (maybe two). and that's it....but apparently Carnival has done the math and it is more profitable to charge for their photos one at a time. If it is your first cruise, or a big family cruise, or if you have kids, the line is pretty sure you will want to buy lots of photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
