Hi Lonnie!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I'm happy to say that the good news you've been hearing is absolutely correct. If you've purchased
Memory Maker and are using a
MagicBand, photos from participating attractions will automatically be associated with your
My Disney Experience account. I experienced this awesomeness first-hand when I vacationed with my extended family just last month. The system worked like a charm - we skipped the photo sales counter altogether and every single ride photo magically appeared on my account. Even better, if you have people in your group who are linked as Family & Friends in
My Disney Experience, you'll also be able to see all their attraction photos (both those that are added manually and automatically). That means you'll probably have multiple copies of the same ride photos on your account at the end of your trip, like we did, but the
Disney PhotoPass site makes it easy to choose which of those photos you want to download. If you're looking for even more information,
this link from the Disney PhotoPass Service Facebook page might be helpful.
Wishing you a picture-perfect trip, Lonnie!
Beth
