The price for pre-purchasing the Memory Maker photo package has increased from $149.00 to $169.00 (plus tax). The non-advanced purchase price will remain $199.00.

With Memory Maker, your whole family can be in the picture at Disney PhotoPass locations and select attraction and dining locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort. All of the photos taken will be yours to keep forever when you purchase the Memory Maker. You no longer have to purchase individual photos as you once did with Disney’s Photo Pass. The all new Memory Maker allows you to purchase ALL of your digital photos for one price ($169) when purchased at least 3 days in advance of your arrival. If Memory Maker is purchased at the advance purchase price, any photos taken within 3 days from the date Memory Maker is purchased will not be included. Should you wait until you arrive at the Parks to purchase Memory Maker, the price will be $199.00, sold at select merchandise locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort.

Memory Maker has seen a few updates this year including the introduction to on-ride videos of certain attractions (including Seven Dwarfs Mine Train and the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror). Another addition are the Animated Magic Shots. This is the same concept of adding a character to your photos (see below). Basically the new additions of these characters now appear in animated form, via a video clip.

I cannot promote this product enough! If you are planning a vacation to Walt Disney World, you absolutely will want to have the Disney Photo Pass Memory Maker! Trust me!!! You can book this as an add-on to your package and pay for it with your vacation. Talk to a Disney Travel Agent today about adding this on to your vacation. In my opinion, the price increase is warranted given the benefit of having your digital photos and attraction videos to keep forever!
