Official NYCC Photo Ops and Select Autograph Presales Will Be Provided By Epic Photo Ops
Stand side by side with your favorite NYCC guest and make a memory that will last a lifetime! Click on the guest of your choice below to purchase a Photo Op or an Autograph.
Please note: Prices, times and guests are subject to change and do not include taxes or fees. Pre-purchased Photo Ops and Autographing tickets do not grant holder front of the line access, so be sure to be at the Autographing table and/or Photo Op area at the scheduled start times of each session. Schedules will be available on the website and NYCC App and are subject to change.
You MUST have a valid NYCC ticket on the day(s) of the Autograph and/or Photo Ops you’re interested in before purchasing your Autographs and/or Photo Ops.
Autograph Info
We encourage you to pre-purchase Autographs as sessions can sell out quickly and ATM lines can be long at the show.
Only Select Autographs are available for presale. If you notice someone you want to get an Autograph from does not have Autographs available (and doesn’t say SOLD OUT) that means those Autographs will only be available to purchase onsite at that specific guest’s Autographing table.
Need to change the day of your Autograph? Here’s how: using the email address you used to purchase Autograph tickets with, create an account here. After logging in, you can make changes to existing tickets such as change the day or group if sessions are not sold out.
Photo Op Info
You are welcome to have up to 4 individuals & any children under 3 per Photo Op ticket (not counting the celebrities).
For your comfort we have implemented a "group" system much like the zone system used in airports. Select Photo Ops are subdivided into 10-minute sessions per group - ex. Group 1 starts at 5:00 PM, Group 2 at 5:10 PM, Group 3 at 5:20 PM, etc. This allows you to only arrive a few minutes before your group start time rather than wait an hour or more.

Photo Op FAQs
Photo Ops are a very quick process to provide you with a high quality, professional photo of you and your fave celebrity. These are NOT meet and greets. You can't ask for an autograph or hug and will not be able to give the guest a present (that's what Autograph signings are for). You will be brought into the photo booth, given the prompt "Ready?" by the photographer, and the photographer will snap the photo. You will need to exit the booth immediately following your photo. The whole process will take a few seconds. Photo Op times are limited so this ensures that every fan in line will be able to get their photo.
No. Photo ops are now sold per session as opposed to per guest. For example, you can opt to purchase a Mr. X photo op for his Friday session, his Saturday session or his Sunday session. There will be a limited amount of photo ops per session. Once a session sells out, you can purchase photo ops for the next available session, and once they all sell out, no more will be available. Lining up more than 15 minutes prior to your photo op will result in security asking you to leave the area until it is time for your photo op. We ask that you arrive between 5 and 15 minutes prior to your photo op. Once the line moves, it moves very quickly and often those that arrive closest to the session time wait the least amount of time.
Yes, an admission ticket is a pre-requisite to getting a photo op. Please ensure you purchase an admissions ticket prior to purchasing any photo ops. If you purchase a photo op without purchasing admission, in the case that the event is sold out, we will not be offering refunds for missed photo ops.
The best way to avoid missing out is to purchase your photo ops online prior to the show. If you wait to purchase your photo op onsite, then you run the risk of it being sold out.
If you are late arriving and the Guest has already departed, you will have forfeited your photo op and will not receive a refund. If you miss your photo op, you will also not receive a refund.
If you no longer wish to obtain a photo with a Guest, you can exchange your ticket for another guest, providing the photo session has not already started. Photo op refunds will be available up to 7 days prior to the start of the event.
Absolutely. You may purchase additional print copies and/or JPEGs when you by online or onsite for an extra $10 each.

Please email [email protected] with the name of the event and the number on your receipt and someone will confirm your email address with you.
Autographs are strictly prohibited in the photo op area, but can be purchased in the NYCC Autographing Area.
Please do not bring gifts for the Guests during their photo ops. This creates delays while they hand off the gifts to someone else. As a general rule of thumb, it is recommended that Fans do not present Guests with gifts as they often do not have space to fit the gifts into their luggage or they can’t bring the gifts home with them. Gifts of food and/or beverage are strictly prohibited.
Personal cameras are strictly prohibited in the photo op area.
It is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to look how they want to look for their photo. The Guests cannot return to the photo op area for retakes, so before you arrive for your photo op, please make sure that you appear how you would like to present yourself for your photo. The photographer will try to catch things like closed eyes before you leave the photo op area.
The price of a photo is the price per posed picture, not per person. The number of Fans that can be in a posed picture is four. Beyond four Fans, a second photo op must be purchased. Children 5 and under do not count towards the four Fan limit.
If you lose your ticket and/or don’t bring your online purchase ticket, visit customer support on site to have a new ticket printed.
Photos are available for pick up within minutes of your photo being taken.
