Life Is Strange Reunion: An Empty Home Photo Guide
This quick moment in An Empty Home is easy to miss if you are just walking through the house without checking everything. The photo you need is right there upstairs, but the game does not force your attention to it, so it slips by fast if you are not looking closely.
Here is exactly where to go and what to interact with so you do not miss it and have to replay the scene later.
Where To Find The An Empty Home Photo
Go upstairs and take a photo of the poster on the reptile tank.
That is the full requirement for this one, but the game does not spell it out clearly, so here is how to line it up properly.
Step By Step Location Walkthrough
Head upstairs during the An Empty Home scene and take your time looking around instead of rushing forward. The spot you need is not hidden, but it blends in with the environment.
Go up the stairs to the upper floor
Look around for the reptile tank setup
Walk up close to the tank and face it directly
Focus on the poster attached to or sitting on the tank
Use the camera and snap the photo
If the prompt does not show right away, adjust your angle slightly and move closer. The interaction can be a little picky depending on where you stand.
What To Watch For So You Do Not Miss It
This one trips people up because it does not stand out as a typical photo target. It just looks like background detail at first glance.
The reptile tank is the key landmark, not the poster itself
You need to be fairly close for the photo prompt to appear
Make sure you are aiming at the poster, not just the tank
If nothing pops up, reposition slightly and try again
Take an extra few seconds here, it saves you from replaying the whole section later, which nobody wants to do.
Why This Photo Is Easy To Miss
The game treats this like a small environmental detail instead of a big collectible moment. There is no major cue pulling your attention to it, so it blends into the scene naturally.
It also happens during a slower exploration section, which makes it easy to walk right past while focusing on dialogue or moving forward.
Final Blurb
This is one of those simple checks that becomes annoying if you skip it. Just remember, upstairs, reptile tank, poster, snap the photo, done. Take your time in these scenes and you will catch everything without needing a cleanup run later.
