Hey Kristie!
Welcome to the Disney Park Mom Panel! Thank you so much for bringing us your question.
You will be happy to know that you, as the
Memory Maker 'owner', DO NOT need to be present when members of your traveling party are collecting their photos. As long as all members of your traveling party are connected in
My Disney Experience via the
Friends & Family feature, then you will be able to view, customize and download all the images they collect using their MagicBand and/or a PhotoPass card.
Once the photos are downloaded you will also receive a release allowing you to print and share the photos to your heart's content. This includes taking them to a commercial photo printers such as CVS, WalMart or Walgreens.
I hope this helps with your planning. If you have any other questions please come back and see me.
Wishing you a magical vacation and a pixie-dusted day!
Sue N., IN
