Photo Ops

Photo Ops Terms

You must have an admission ticket for the day of your photo op in order to redeem your photo op ticket.
Your photo op ticket includes a 9×6 glossy full colour photo of yourself with the guest and can include up to two attendees (1 photo op tix = 2 fans in one photo). Two photo op tickets can include up to four fans in a photo (2 photo op tix = 4 fans in one photo). This is the maximum number of people allowed in one picture.
Personal photography is not allowed at any photo op session.
All photos are printed ready for collection as you leave the photo area. Photo prints and jpegs of your photo ops may be used for personal use only
Please be aware a Photo op is just that – a photo opportunity with your favourite guest. It is not a meet & greet and should not be viewed as such. It is very fast-paced so that the guest may accommodate as many attendees as possible.
Please be courteous to the guests and staff. Any inappropriate behaviour will result in your immediate removal from the photo op area without refund. Also, please follow any specific instructions given to you by the photo op staff for a particular guest
Please do not assume you may hug or touch the guests. Always politely ask first and respect the guest’s decision. Some guests will not want any physical contact whilst having a photo shoot but may well pose with you.
Special poses are always at the discretion of the celebrities. Physical contact of any kind is at the discretion of the actor, hugs are not guaranteed. Please keep in mind we are strangers to them, so don’t do anything to them that you wouldn’t want a stranger to do to you. Please be respectful of the guest’s personal space.”
Most props are ok unless deemed inappropriate by the guest or staff. Items which will not be permitted are those that pose a safety risk, putting on or taking off clothing, those which require clean-up or may delay the photo op session. Every item brought into a photo op will be checked at the photo op line prior to your photo op.
Photo Op times and locations are included in the Schedule of Events, which is available for download on the website by Wednesday of the week of the convention. Printed copies are also available on-site at registration. Photo Op sessions may take place at the same time other activities are going on at the convention. Please make sure to note the time and location of your photo op, so you don’t miss it. Unless indicated in the schedule to wait in the main theatre for your photo op, please go to the photo op location and queue up five minutes prior to the Photo Op scheduled time. Unless your photo op session is called by number, photo ops are done on a first come, first serve basis. If you have a special event (meet & greet) that might conflict with a scheduled photo op and/or autograph and the instruction to handle your conflict is not listed in the schedule, please go to registration before your conflict happens so we can help you.
