Colin Woods Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Hi All Does anyone have any experience with "kids at Disney" photos? Do they sell? We are going in a few weeks and the big existential question is do I take the big camera and shoot stock or do I just kick back and take family pictures with the little snappy Canon. If there is a good market for these photos then I don't mind having the SLR kit with me, but if they are photos that license rarely then its a job for the little camera. Anyone with any experience in sales of Disney pictures? Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpics Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Check out Disney's terms & conditions re photography. I'm pretty sure there are restrictions, even for editorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariaJ Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 "Photography for commercial purposes" is on their list of prohibited activities. On other lists I've seen photos of Disney properties being unacceptable for commercial or editorial use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlmphotog Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Don't mess with the Mouse! I shoot stock everywhere... but I've never photographed at a Disney property. Kids in the hotel pool, playing mini golf, other normal locations you bet I exploit my children by shooting stock of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Disney even banned kids once (see #7). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ventura Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Back in 2000, I was invited to come on the first ever Disney photo press tour, it took place at the Orlando, FL location. The chief Disney photographer ran the tour and he said that he convinced the corporate suits to relax the photo rules. Those relaxed rules may have been re-tightened since, but we were allowed to shoot whatever we wanted for stock and they even hired model “families” for some set up shoots. I was shooting film then and have never scanned the photos for Alamy....maybe when they are more dated, they will have some value. One of the highlights of that trip was meeting the renowned American photojournalist, Eddie Adams, who was among the photographers invited. Sadly he passed away a few years later.
