In this Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 guide, we're going to highlight the game's Photo Mode, explaining how to find it and what you can do with it. You'll need to use Photo Mode for certain in-game challenges, as well as Trophies like You Look Like Tony Hawk and Omelette du Fromage.

How Do You Enter Photo Mode in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4?

Fortunately, getting to Photo Mode is easy to do. While you're in a level, simply pause the game with Options, then select Photo Mode from the pause menu. Hey presto, you're in Photo Mode!

What Can You Do in Photo Mode in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4?

As with all Photo Modes, you're given control over the in-game camera so you can set up some really cool shots to capture favourite moments or share with others.

One thing that's quite unique about THPS 3 + 4's Photo Mode, however, is that the Free Camera really means free camera; you're not tethered to the player character at all, allowing you to fly around the entire stage.

There is also a Player Camera if you do want to lock your skater to the centre of the frame, though.

Aside from that, you have all your usual controls — you can change zoom, roll, field of view, exposure, lens flare, brightness and contrast, visual filters, and more. You can also choose whether to show the player character, NPCs, and game items (such as Collectibles).
