How to unlock the Irony achievement in BioShock - Definitive Guide
Take a picture of his body.
Can also be done in Fort frolic
After you have completed the "Completed Cohen's Masterpiece" achievement, Cohen will be standing in front of his 'masterpiece' adoring it. Save your game, kill Cohen, take a picture of his corpse and the achievement will be unlocked. After the achievement is unlocked RELOAD the game! Otherwise you will miss out on another achievement further into the game.
I killed Cohen in olympus heights and totally forgot about this achievement.
Tonight I went back to the apartment (apollo square in the bathysphere) and his body was still on the floor so I still got the achievement.
(This would have to be done before you get to the finalé though from what I've read once you get to the ending you can't go back) ×
You can get this one of two ways. During Fort Frolic, once you finish his masterpiece, he comes down the stairs and does a speech, then just stares at the pictures. Save your game and then kill him and take his photo for the achievement, then reload your save.
The other way is to leave him alive and leave Fort Frolic, then later in Olympus Heights when you enter his apartment, kill him and take the photo here.

This achievement is highly missable!
This achievement is earned by taking a photo of Sander Cohen’s corpse with the Research Camera. If you are following this guide, then you will want to refrain from killing Cohen when you have the opportunity to at the end of the Fort Frolic level.
Later on in the game during the Olympus Heights level, you will come upon Cohen’s apartment. There is a pair of Splicers dancing in the middle of the living room, straight ahead from where you enter. If you disturb these two dancers (shoot at them), Cohen will become enraged and will emerge from a side room. He will be considered an enemy at this point and you are free to kill him. You now have access to Cohen’s personal quarters which will also unlock the “Found Cohen’s Room” achievement. This room also contains a Power to the People station that is missable if Cohen is killed in Fort Frolic.
