Does Disney memory maker include ride photos?

Just like traditional PhotoPass pictures, you can purchase ride photos individually or if you have purchased Memory Maker, your ride photos will be included with that. Additionally, guests who have purchased Genie+ also have their ride photos included with their purchase.



Yes, Disney Memory Maker absolutely includes all attraction (ride) photos and videos captured during your vacation. This is often considered the most valuable part of the package, as it includes "candid" shots from over 15 popular attractions across all four parks, such as Space Mountain, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. In 2026, the system is highly automated: if you are wearing a MagicBand or have your phone's Bluetooth enabled via the My Disney Experience app, the photos are automatically linked to your account as you ride. The package also includes photos from over 100 "PhotoPass" locations, character meet-and-greets, and even specialized "Magic Shots" where a character is digitally added to your photo later. By purchasing Memory Maker at least three days in advance, you can save roughly $30, making it a "must-have" for families who want to download every high-speed scream and character hug without the hassle of individual per-photo fees.
