    If I buy a memory maker one day how do I select which day to use it? Do I purchase it before I go or after?

    Welcome to planDisney, Jessica!

    The purchase of Memory Maker is a great way to take home magical memories from your stay. With a one-day Memory Maker, you can enjoy your Disney PhotoPass pictures from the date you choose, including attraction photos, Magic Shots, and more. My personal favorite is the Tiny World Magic Shots. They make fun, unique additions to your family photo collection!

    When you purchase Memory Maker One Day, you get to choose which day you want to use the service. Here's how it works. Anytime you use Disney PhotoPass Service, your pictures can be linked to your My Disney Experience account with a tap of a MagicBand or by scanning MagicMobile. All images will have a watermark display. Once you know which day you want to use the service, you will select a photo to download in the My Disney Experience app. This will remove the watermark and activate the one-day Memory Maker. Watermarks on all photos taken on this day will automatically be removed, and you can download them to your device. You have 45 days to download images before they expire. You can choose to purchase Memory Maker before you arrive, or after you get back from your adventure. 

    Jessica, you can also enjoy a Capture Your Moment session during your stay. These private photo shoots are offered in all four theme parks. Downloads of the photos taken are included with your Memory Maker, and you get a ton of great shots! Just be sure to schedule your session on the day you have picked to use your Memory Maker One Day. My Ohana and I recently did a session at Disney's Animal Kingdom and received some of our best family photos. 

    I hope your upcoming adventure is magical!
