Photo

This feature is exclusive to Minecraft Education.

This article describes content that has been officially made unobtainable in Bedrock Edition.

It can still be obtained using third-party software. However, this can cause unexpected behavior such as bugs and crashes.

A photo is an item containing a picture taken with a camera.^[1][2][3]

Obtaining

A photo in a portfolio can be saved as a photo item by selecting the "Save to Inventory" button underneath it.

In Bedrock Edition, portfolios cannot get photos and therefore the photo item is unobtainable. It can be obtained using glitches, inventory editing, or add-ons, but the item has no texture or data. It can be moved in the inventory, but causing it to render by holding or dropping it crashes the game.

Usage

Photos display an image when held in the hand or when placed in an item frame, similarly to maps. Photos can have captions added to them by renaming them in an anvil or by adding a caption while they are in a portfolio. Photos can be added to book and quills and portfolios by selecting the "Add Photo" button in the book and quill or portfolio.
