Hi again Nicholas! Continued thanks for your follow up questions! I love how much thought and preparation you are putting into your vacation! I'm so glad you decided to add Memory Maker to your vacation package. I see from another question you asked that you have a 2 1/2 year old princess. Memory Maker will be worth every penny now and for years to come as you look back on your vacation memories!
You have picked three amazing Character Dining Experiences and I love that your dining reservations are prior to park opening. You are truly working to maximize your time while on vacation. The PhotoPass Photographers are not out prior to theme park opening but have your personal camera available as you will be able to capture some amazing moments with very low crowd levels (in particular at Magic Kingdom).
Because you are pre-purchasing Memory Maker, your account will magically activate automatically. When you see a PhotoPass Photographer, simply ask them to link your pictures to your account by touching your MagicBand. You will be able to view your photos right away on your
My Disney Experience mobile app.
As you are enjoying your time at Walt Disney World Resort, you may be given a Memory Maker or Disney PhotoPass card. If this happens, link the card to your account. When you are using your My Disney Experience mobile app, simply scroll down below "My Plans" and you will see "My Photos." There you can view photos and link photos and cards if needed. If you are given a Memory Maker or PhotoPass Card and are unable to link it immediately, I would recommend that you take a picture of the back of the card with your personal camera. If the card gets misplaced, you will still be able to link the photos because you will have the card number saved.
Thank you again for your questions! You have made my day and I appreciate you so much!
