Hi Margaret,
Welcome Home! I bet you are super excited to be visiting Walt Disney World again, and if you are anything like myself you are now counting "how many more sleeps" until you are visiting the Most Magical Place on Earth.
I'm so glad that you took advantage of pre-purchasing your
Memory Maker for your upcoming vacation. I find that
Disney PhotoPass Service provides me with so many excellent photos which always capture the essence of my gang's trip so perfectly. From the energetic Disney PhotoPass photographers who create fun poses, to exciting attraction photos and incredible Magic Shots, there are so many reasons why Disney PhotoPass Service is the best at helping you capture your memories.
Margaret, you will be happy to know that you can indeed download your friends and family photos even if you are not in the same theme park. To make sure that their permissions are set to do this, everyone should log into their
My Disney Experience account and go to their Friends & Family List. They can then find your name and then select "Update" and from there they can select the option to share photos by checking the box that says "My Disney PhotoPass Photos". Once they have clicked the photo sharing permission box, you will be able to view and download all the photos they take.
One little tip that I want to leave you with is that when you purchase
Disney Genie+ service, you will then have access to special
Disney PhotoPass Lenses. These are so fun to play around with and provide some amusing entertainment, too!
Have a Magical trip! Please let us know if we can answer any more Disney vacation planning questions as we are always here to help you plan your best adventure yet.
See Ya Real Soon,
Brenda
