It is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/parks\/photo-pass\/\/\">Disney PhotoPass<\/a> package that includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unlimited digital downloads of all your Disney PhotoPass photos and videos<\/li>\n<li>Select Attraction photos and videos<\/li>\n<li>Select Character dining photos<\/li>\n<li>Discounts on prints of your photos<\/li>\n<li>Magic Shots &#8211; featuring Disney Characters and more, added to your photos<\/li>\n<li>Digital borders and stickers to personalize your photos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>(According to<a href=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/memory-maker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Walt Disney World&#8217;s website<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If you buy the package in the parks, it is $199 to purchase. <strong>But if you buy it at least three days before you want to start downloading pictures, you can get it for $169, a savings of $30.<\/strong> Your photos expire after 45 days, but you can download them an unlimited amount of times during that period. Also, if you have family or friends at the parks with you that are linked to your My Disney Experience, you can get their pictures as well! All you have to do is find PhotoPass Photographers in the parks (or at character meet and greets), have them take your picture, then scan your Magic Band or PhotoPass Card. All your photos then show up in your My Disney Experience account. It&#8217;s pretty easy!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Let&#8217;s now see why you should pay the extra and get this added to your magical trip!<\/p>\n<h2>You get everyone in the picture with characters and at park landmarks!<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is huge!
