As we recently reported, PhotoPass photographers are starting to disappear throughout Walt Disney World as new automated photo boxes are popping up.

When the news first surfaced on the internet, fans were outraged, and some even reached out to Walt Disney Guest Relations, but that didn’t seem to change their minds.

A couple of days ago, new automated photo boxes appeared at the Mickey and Minnie meet and greet and Tinkerbell’s meet and greet in Magic Kingdom. We even heard about some showing up at Star Wars Launch Bay at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, too, and the Anna and Elsa meet and greet in EPCOT.

After seeing how these photographs come out, fans are even more upset and outraged. It seems as if the photos aren’t centered, the images aren’t zoomed in, and some even reported that not a single shot captured had the family posed and smiling.

Since emailing and calling Disney Guest relations didn’t get their attention, Disney fans started a petition on change.org that quickly surfaced on the internet. The petition has almost 51,000 signatures, but the numbers are rapidly increasing.

I signed this petition as new automated photo boxes broke my heart. The Disney PhotoPass photographers help bring the magic to Walt Disney World. They are trained with such a great eye that helps capture the memories and the laughs so families and friends can look back at the photos are remember that exact moment. I have thousands of images that showcase laughter with my family, my friend, and Disney characters that a box would able to credit: change.org

If you want your voice to be heard, you, too, can sign the petition at change.org.
