Frequently Asked Questions
What is the process of photo ops like exactly?
With Leap Epic Experiences, we streamline your convention photography sessions to save you time and help your attendees enjoy more of your event. It should take your attendees no more than 5 minutes between having their photo taken and walking out of the photo-op area with it. The process goes something like this:
- Fans should arrive in the photo op area with their ticket at least 5 minutes, but no more than 15 minutes, before the photo op session starts.
- A friendly usher will direct them to and from the talent and have a place for attendees to put their things.
- Then, the magic happens! Attendees will meet their favorite celebrity and pose for the photo. Once they're done, they’ll pick up their belongings and head towards the photo pickup tables, following the signs in the area.
- One of our print runners will give fans their photo upon arrival, so they’ll need to make sure to have their ticket ready.
- Fans will take the photo and their ticket to the checkout station and have both scanned out. If they pre-purchased a digital copy, we will have emailed the photos to them automatically. Any pre-purchased extra prints are also automatically printed.
- Should fans want to order any extra prints or digital copies after their experience, they can do so at our reprint station.
What are the group numbers on each ticket for?
For ease of operations, we’ve implemented a "group" system that works much like the zones used in airports for lining up. This way, select photo ops are subdivided into smaller sessions called “groups”. For example, fans may be lined up for Group 1 starting at 5:00 PM, Group 2 at 5:10 PM, Group 3 at 5:20 PM, etc.
This allows your attendees to arrive just 10 minutes before their group’s start time, rather than wait for an hour or more. Onsite, our Leap Epic Experiences team will usually have a PA system and TVs that will show which group we are now queuing or lining up. An important note for attendees: please always check onsite to make sure the group time for your photo op has not been changed!
What is the difference between a photo op and a meet & greet?
A photo op is just that – a quick photo opportunity with a certain celebrity. Meet & greets, however, tend to be longer where fans can have longer conversations with that given celebrity. When offering photo ops, it’s important to understand these are very fast-paced so the talent may accommodate as many fans as possible for this once-in-a-lifetime moment. Out of fairness to everyone, conversation with the talent, aside from a quick hello, is not permitted. However, the autograph area is a great place to have any kind of conversation with the talent!
What exactly are fans purchasing for a photo op? Do photo ops include autographs?
For photo ops, they’ll receive a high-quality, glossy 8x10 photograph of them with the celebrity of their choice, taken by one of our professional photographers. They’ll also have the option to purchase a digital version of the photo, buy additional prints, and more. As for autographs, these are purchased at a separate time and location from photo ops.
Do fans have to pay per person for a photo?
Nope! The price of a photo is the price per posed picture, not per person. The limit of individuals per photo op ticket depends on the event organizer and will be posted in the information section of the online Epic Experiences store or listed on the individual talent’s purchase page.
