# Cheat Sheet: Photo Mode

## Summary

**Last documented update**: January 6 2024 by [mana vortex](mailto:undefined)

This page acts as a look-up table for photo mode. Use the Table of Contents or your browser's search (Hotkey: `Ctrl+F`) to quickly find what you're looking for. Any links will lead you to additional context.

### Wait, this isn't what I'm looking for!

For theoretical knowledge, check the [Animations](/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/animations.md)section

For creating own photo mode poses, see [Creating Animations - Poses for V & NPCs](/cyberpunk-2077-modding/modding-guides/animations/animations.md) in the Modding Guides section.

### .anims

You can find all photo mode animation sets in the following folder:

```

```
base\weather\24h_basic\luts\photomode_lut
