Hi Jennifer, and welcome to planDisney! I’m so glad you stopped by, and thanks for sending in your question!
There is no souvenir I treasure more than photos of my vacation memories, so
Memory Maker is the special gift I always purchase for myself! It’s one of those extras I never regret adding to my trip. There is both a one-day option, as well as the full Memory Maker package that will give you 30 days of Disney PhotoPass media. Neither of these have to be purchased in advance, but there is a reduced price on the full Memory Maker with an advance purchase of three days or more. That advance purchase discount can be a nice bonus if you already know you want it. However, all of your PhotoPass media is stored for 45 days, so you can purchase Memory Maker until they expire. This gives you the opportunity to view your photos and videos before deciding, which I find really helpful. Just be sure you activate your purchase for the specific day you want to download.
What I love most about Disney PhotoPass Service and Memory Maker is, not only do I get attraction photos and videos, but there are also PhotoPass photographers throughout all four theme parks. They seem to know exactly where to position their cameras to get the perfect shots with amazing backdrops. I’m always impressed with how they capture moments that I would have missed otherwise. If you think you will purchase MemoryMaker, be sure to take a few minutes to stop when you see the photographers to get a few photos taken. Some of the spots that I never would have chosen on my own have turned out to be my favorite photos from the trip!
Jennifer, I hope you have photo memories you will treasure forever from your visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth! If you have any more questions, be sure to
come back and see me. I am always here to help and love adding extra pixie dust to your vacation planning!
Magically,
Casey
