Same with me - I got the 10 achievements for the individuals photos, and then this one *Lab Master* simply did not unlock. Nice guide, however - thanks, MAKA!!

OK - so here is what I did to unlock it. I went back into collectible mode and replayed 2 different scenarios - the first one (pic 2) did not unlock the achievement, but when I took pic 9 for the second time the achievement did properly unlock. MAKA - you may want to add this information to your great video, as more people may be having the same issue.

Great guide! Have the same problem of some people with the achievement not unlocking and I have played the last sequence twice now (also wanted to get a better ending). Will see if another picture will pop it.

I had a little trouble during the bottle hunt finding them, but I found this guide, which was really helpful

This didn't unlock for me at first even though my journal showed all 10 photos. I looked through my achievements and noticed that individual photo #5's achievement hadn't unlocked either, despite having definitely taken it. I went back to that section to retake the photo and both achievements unlocked.

I had the same thing happen as GhostJohn325, except mine was photo 9. Thankfully, you don't have to play through the entire episode. You can just start right at the section you missed.

Once you take all 10 optional photos in Episode 2, this trophy will unlock. If you prefer videos, check out this excellent guide (credit to Maka) for a visual walkthrough of each optional photo location.

After taking all ten photos you will receive this achievement as well. If you miss any pictures during the story, you can load various areas in "collectible mode" and get them this way without affecting any of your story choices or having to start a new play through. You can check your progress at any time by hitting the Back button and going to the third tab. The pictures there in black and white show hints of what to look out for in finding the other photo ops.
