What’s your favorite trip souvenir? I’ve brought home lots of “tangible memories” from trips – from mugs and t-shirts to magnets and tote bags. But my absolute favorite souvenir has to be pictures! There’s just nothing like a photograph to keep a cherished memory alive, and while things may break or end up in a garage sale, pictures become a record of the times we want to remember forever!

Memory Maker is a photo service offered at Walt Disney World Resort designed to capture and preserve the magical moments of your visit. By adding Memory Maker to your vacation package, you get several benefits that enhance your experience:

Benefits of Memory Maker:

1. Professional Photos: You get access to professional-quality photos taken by Disney PhotoPass photographers throughout the parks. These include photos at iconic locations, like Cinderella Castle, and at character meet-and-greets.
2. Ride Photos: Memory Maker includes photos taken on select attractions. This way, you can capture those thrilling moments on rides like Space Mountain or TRON: Lightcycle/Run..
3. Unlimited Downloads: With Memory Maker, you can download an unlimited number of photos and videos from your trip. There are no extra charges for additional photos or downloads.


4. Magic Shots: Some PhotoPass photographers provide various enhancements and special effects, like adding surprise characters or themed borders to your photos, which can make your memories even more special. Special PhotoPass opportunities can change with the seasons, special events, and new park features, and your Middle of the Magic Travel planner can make sure you know what’s available during your trip.
5. Ease of Use: Photos are automatically linked to your My Disney Experience account, making it easy to view, download, and share them from your smartphone or computer.
6. Share with Family and Friends: You can share your photo gallery with family and friends, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the memories from your trip.
7. Pre-Purchase Discount: If you purchase Memory Maker in advance, you can often take advantage of a discount compared to purchasing it at the park.
8. No Need for Personal Photography: You can focus on enjoying your vacation rather than spending time taking and managing photos, knowing that Disney photographers are capturing your special moments and everyone will be in the picture!

Memory Maker can be added to your vacation package, or can be purchased a la carte if you are staying off property and have park tickets. Memory Maker is the perfect way to make your Disney experience more enjoyable by letting you focus on the people you love most, knowing you’ll return home with high-quality photos that become part of your family’s story! Reach out to us today and let us help you add Memory Maker to your next vacation!
