You have you photo taken, the photographer scans your band, and then you can log into your MDE account and see the photos. It also takes photos on some rides and adds it to your account automatically.
Oh I didn't know about the ride photos! That's great to know. We have MM for the first time next year, and I'm now really looking forward to seeing the ride photos.
If you are staying at a Disney Resort, there are manned desks in the lobby specifically for MM (you can buy prints there, or wait until you get home). Cast members can scan your band and your photos so far appear on the big screen at this desk. You can view your photos there daily -- we did this each night to be sure we got good shots, got a good mix of locations, or knew what locations needed a do-over before we left. When we got home, everything was on MDE for editing, ordering, etc.
Sometimes you can see them right away, sometimes it takes a bit longer for them to be added to your account (a few hours). You can see them on a smartphone from the PP site. Editing them I find to be much easier from a laptop.
