Say cheese, Amanda! I'm sure you're already smiling ear to ear as you plan for your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort vacation, and I'm so glad to welcome you here at planDisney!
Amanda,
Disney PhotoPass Service is one of my absolute favorite things about visiting Disney; I love that there are photographers at every turn, ready to capture the memories for my family and to ensure that we are all in the picture! Even when my family or travel group separates to explore the magic, we can always count on seeing everyone's vacation photos and never missing out on the magic and memories!
Amanda, to ensure that everyone's photos will be ready to download, be sure the guest who has purchased the Memory Maker is connected to everyone else on their Family & Friends List. As long as the guest is connected to the profile that has purchased Memory Maker,
all of their photos will be included in that guest's Photo Gallery on the
My Disney Experience mobile app. If you find that some photos are not showing up, be sure to click "Include Family & Friends" when visiting your Photo Gallery to see everyone's photos! Remember that only the guest who purchases
Memory Maker will be able to download and view the photos without the Disney watermark. What I usually do, once we have returned home, is create an online photo album to upload all of our photos and then share that link with family and friends so they can save whichever photos they would like to have!
Amanda, before I let you go, here are a few bonus tips for making the most of your Memory Maker purchase:
- Visit the Disney PhotoPass Studio at Disney Springs if you have the chance! There are fun backgrounds available to capture even more photos of your group, and no appointment is necessary!
- Ask the photographers about special Magic Shots! You never know who or what might make an appearance in your pictures, to add a little extra magic!
- Photographers are usually available up until about an hour after the park's posted closing time, so if you aren't in a rush to exit, this is a great way to get some late-night pictures with lighter crowds around you! I love to linger after closing for these special nighttime memories!
I hope that helps, Amanda! If you have any other questions as you finalize your magical countdown, come see us again here at
planDisney! We're always ready to watch the magic develop!
See you real soon,
Alison
