All Polaroid locations in Chapter 1 of Life is Strange: Double Exposure

There are three polaroids to gather in Chapter 1 of Double Exposure. Here’s where to find them, and♛ how to track them down if you’ve already completed the chapter and are going back in through Chapter Select. ;

Polaroid #1 – Reggie and Diamond

The first of the three Polaroids to be found in Chapter 1 is in the Snapping Turtle, and can be found relatively early in the chapter. After you’ve arrived at the Turtle with Safi, and you’ve discussed Chloe🙈 and Amanda, Max will be free to roa🌜m around the area to gather information. This is your opportunity to pick up the Polaroid, so make sure to use it. 

To find the Polaroid, head left from the bar and into the🔴 separate room where the fireplace is, passing by Reggie and Diamond at their table. The Polaroid is located in the room beyond them, on the high bar table along the right-hand wall. 

If you missed this Polaroid during your first playthrough of Chapter 1, you can explore the scene and pick it up by selecting “A Drink to Remember” under “Still Life” in Ch﷽apter Select. 

Polaroid #2 – Snowman

The second Polaroid shows up after you’ve spent time with Safi and Moses on the Astronomy department balcony. After you’ve left the balc💙ony yourself, and had some time to admire the campus under snow, head towards the beheaded snowman and then continue down this path. 

Eventually, the path will briefly branch off to the left, before being blocked by a wooden gate. The second Polaroid can be found in front of this gate on the𓃲 floor, and is hard to miss as there’s nothing else in the area to interact with. 

To get to this Polaroid through Chapter Select, you’ll need to replay or explore the “Things Are Looking Up” scene under💫 “Still Lif💮e”. 

Polaroid #3 – Mascot Plushie

The third and final Polaroid iꩲn Chapter 1 can be found after the tragic events, and after Amanda decides that she’s coming over to Max’s place whether she likes it or not. While tidying up the place, make sure to look out for this one. 

To find the third Polaroid, head downstairs and cross the main living space of Max’s house towards the telescope set up by the window. The third Polaroid can be found on the table just left of the telescope, and features the same plushie that you could take home earlier in the chapter.

If you need to go back and🅘 pick up this Polaroid after finishing the chapter for the first time, head to Chapter Select and then select “Upstairs, Downcast” under “Still Life”.
