All Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Photo locations

The Spider-Man 2 Photo Ops locations are spread all across New York, with various scenes and locations you can find across the game and photograph for Robbie Robertson at the Daily Bugle. There'll be a mission early on where you're tasked to photograph some rooftop frisbee (with one of many Spider-Man 2 Easter eggs concealed within) but then there'll be plenty more to find as an optional collectible. If you're struggling, don't worry - for all the aspiring shutterbugs out there, here's where to find all the Spider-Man 2 photos and what you're looking for!

How to collect Photo Ops in Spider-Man 2

When you get close to a Spider-Man 2 Photo Ops location a green camera icon will appear on your map, and if you click the right stick to scan the area then the same floating icon will also appear in the world to guide you to the correct spot. Once you're in position, swipe up on the touchpad to access the camera then hold L2 to aim it. Look around until you see one of the following three notifications on screen:

• Subject Obscured
  You're looking at the right target, but something is blocking your view so adjust your position.
  
  
• Subject Not in Focus
  You're not quite looking at the right target, so adjust your aim a small amount.
  
  
• Subject in Focus
  You're good to go, so hit R1 to collect the Photo Op.

Hidden Oasis in Williamsburg

For most of the Photo Ops in Spider-Man 2 it's quite easy to work out what you need to capture when you arrive in the designated area, but there are a couple that may cause some confusion. For #20 Hidden Oasis in Williamsburg, you need to get up on the rooftops and then take a photo looking down into the water tank that's been converted into a bar.

Now That's a Bridge in Downtown Brooklyn

The other potentially problematic Photo Op is #21 Now That's a Bridge in Downtown Brooklyn, as the camera icon designates where you need to stand rather than the target to capture. Position yourself behind the group of tourists, then aim your camera above them at the Brooklyn Bridge to get the perfect shot.
