Added by ButterscotchboyPhotos are clues that can be collected in Silent Hill: Homecoming. They are taken by Joshua Shepherd, with what seems to be a Polaroid camera, and left behind in key areas and sometimes hidden away. Their purpose is to provide a background to the people and the story involved in what has befallen Shepherd's Glen. As well as Alex Shepherd's description, it is implied that Josh also writes notes at the bottom of the photo. There are a total of 11 photos in the duration of the game.

Meaning
The photos and their accompanying descriptions serve to elaborate on the people of Shepherd's Glen. They also reveal Josh's opinion of the people, and offer subtle clues to the plot and details of the story. For instance, the photo Alex finds of Nora Holloway reveals Nora's fondness of books, her and Josh's opinion of the characters, as well as (if the player notices) the connection Nora has to Asphyxia's design.
