Yes free. If you want to buy the photos it is kinda costly though.

It is a fun background and the characters are really fun and really welcoming, at least they were when we were there. Photog and assistant nice too.

We did this today with Minnie and Pluto. Like everyone said its simple. They gave us a photopass and a voucher and on our way out this evening we stopped to get our print.

Two questions...
1. Are you able to use the voucher on other photos on the photopass card or does it have to be one from the actual Visa M&G?
2. Do you have to use the voucher the same day or can you use it on another day. Also, is the Photo center at Epcot the only one you can use the voucher at?
At Disneyland, they were very lax with the vouchers and let you use them on any photo on the photopass card.

For us, they pulled up just our meet and greet photos to chose from. They asked if we were interested in purchasing any of the others.
The voucher said, I believe, to go to the EPCOT camera center that day.

As a new card member as of this year, I am really looking forward to this! Planning on going our first day when we get to Epcot later afternoon before our FP+ rides. If it is free, why not! Can't wait!!!

Occasionally people report being able to purchase a different picture than the ones from the M&G, but I think it was normally only when there were no good pictures during the session. The voucher is supposed to be used that day, and can only be used at the Epcot photo center.

Ok, so to clarify this in my brain, if you have purchased photopass+, all the pictures they took at this M&G will be on your PP+ card, or just the (free) one you pick? B/c it would be great to get all shots taken (I assume something like 3 or 4) on that PP+ CD.

Close, but not quite. Short answer, yes, all the pics they take will be on the CD.
Long answer, any picture that you have a photopass photographer take and add to a card or a Magic Band can be added to your Photopass account online. Magic bands get added automagically, photopass cards you need to add to your account. A PP photographer can add pictures to a PP card, PP+ card, or MB, all work the same for normal pictures. At the Visa M&G they can load the pics onto any of the 3.
Since you purchased PP+, you will get a voucher for a free Disney Photopass Archive CD. When you redeem that voucher, any picture in your account, along with any edits you made will be included on the CD. So every Visa M&G, every ride picture you claimed, every magic shot with Tink, every Princess hug, everything that ends up on your card or band.

Yes, all of the pics taken will be in your account to add onto your CD.

It is located inside Epcot so if you were in MK all day and couldn't park hop, then no.

What a shame that the former Communicore is now a credit card meet meet and greet.

All your photos from the visa meet n greet do show up on your photopass account!
We actually went to redeem our free photo and I specifically asked the CM if all these will still show on our account. There were a few of our younger son that were so adorable, but we thought if we were gonna get a photo it had to be of both the kids. But we did want those other photos, do we made sure to ask. The CM said yes they will be on there.
Sure enough we get back to the hotel to look at the pictures from today and somehow none of the visa meet n greet photos appeared on our account?!? We had to email photopass to try and retrieve our lost photos. 2 days later we for an email saying they found our pics and were added!
Yes these pics will show in your account, but we just so happened to have a glitch, which does happen with photopass pictures from time to time.

Also, if you have a tablet, you can "view slideshow" and screencap the photopass picks so now you can have them without having to pay for them! Sneaky I know, but I had to let others be aware that you can do this
