Something to bare in mind if anyone has played the trial first then bought the game: this achievement might not pop. It didn't for me (therefore neither did the one for getting all photos) even though the game said I had the photo (in the episode guide bit). I had to go back and take it again for the both to pop.

It took three days to pop and there was not any notification, but popped with the correct date I unlocked it. Haven't played the trial btw. Strange indeed.

As soon as you gain control of Max in the classroom at the start of the game walk up to the table in front of the table where max was sat, on the table there should be some writing (a doodle) and when you are given the option to take a photo press x and the achievement is yours :)

From the main menu select 'Play Episodes' and then 'Episode 1'.

Find and highlight 'High School' and then 'Play this chapter in collectible mode'.

Follow the video and press (X) to take the photo.

There are a number of opportunities to take photos through the episode that are not necessary for the story progression.

Follow the video below of me taking the photo. There is the possibility that taking these photos can affect future episodes.

All the photos can be got as you play the episode through and they pop up in order during the game. Some are highly missable though.

At the beginning of the episode, after the school bell rings, you will be able to walk around the classroom. Find the desk with the words "Rachel Amber 4 Ever" carved in it and look at it. You will be prompted to take a photo which will unlock the trophy.

The first photo can be found in the classroom. It is scratched into a desktop in front of the desk you were sitting in.

You need to take a photo of the inscription on the table in the office at the beginning of the game.
