One of the most delightful aspects of *Final Fantasy XIV*'s social scene is the incredible variety of emotes players can use to interact. This guide explains how to obtain the charming Photograph emote.
Thanks to a collaboration with Fujifilm Instax, *Final Fantasy XIV*'s Patch 7.18 introduced this free emote. The "Photograph" emote lets you simulate taking pictures anywhere in Eorzea.
Unlike many emotes requiring quests or purchases, the "Photograph" emote is readily available in your Emote menu after downloading Patch 7.18. No level or expansion is required to unlock it.

To use it, open your Emote menu (under the "Social" tab), find "Photograph" (usually under "General"), and press it. Your character will strike a pose and snap a Polaroid-style picture. Add it to your Favorites for easy access.
While not continuous or suitable for AFK activities, the emote is dynamic, working underwater (like in the Ruby Sea) and even while mounted (both grounded and flying). It's perfect for creative poses and screenshots.
Patch 7.18 precedes the larger Patch 7.2 (late March), bringing new dungeons, a return to the Arcadion, Cosmic Exploration, and more.
This concludes our guide on obtaining the Photograph emote in *Final Fantasy XIV*. See our other guides, including our coverage of the *FFXIV* Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event rewards.
Final Fantasy XIV is available now.
