The present invention provides an automatic picture taking system at a theme park. The system is passive, with guests photographed automatically from a plurality of cameras distributed throughout the theme park. When a picture is taken, the camera broadcasts a code signal that is associated with that picture or image. A code receiver carried or worn by the guest receives the code and stores it in a memory associated with the receiver. The system assumes that any guest that receives the code must have been in the picture when it was taken. At any time, a guest may elect to review the pictures taken so far of the guest by visiting a location for that purpose. When the pictures are taken digitally, for example, the pictures can be provided by a central server to any of a number of locations. The guest may elect to purchase some or all of the pictures that include the guest. In one embodiment, the images are photographs, while in others the images may be videos or a combination of photographs and videos.
