This guide only reveals the 3 picture locations.
For a decent walkthrough use one of the several letplays.
Or try by yourself. Then the horrifying atmosphere is not spoiled

Achievement
There's only 1 achievement in Absence: The PhotoCollector.

PhotoCollector
Collect all the photos in the game.

There are 3 different photos to find.
You can find them in any order, quit the game in the meantime and continue later.
You just have to finish the game once and see the credits.
The achievement will not popup immediately but it will get registered in Steam.
The estimated playtime for one playthrough is under 1 hour (without dying lol)
The photo locations
Photo 1 = on the swing
After your first spawn point in the toilet house you go to the T-section left to the forrest hut for
gaining the flashlight. When you come back to the T-section go straight (right from spawn) to come to a pair of swings. On the left swing there's the first photograph.


Photo 2 = in the village corner
After you escaped the dungeon by shutting down all the breakerboxes you spawn inside a small village. There are some houses a chimney and a big crane somewhere. Whatever you want to do. Skip it for now. Just turn left and go along the wall to the first corner. In the corner lies the second photograph


Photo 3 = behind the locked metal door
When you find in the village an entrance to the cellars you take the elevator down. There awaits you a monster, a lavestream and a steamlocked walkout. Behind this exit there's a first hall flooded with water. The metal walkway is broken in the corner but you can jump to the other side and stop at a metal door which is locked. To come to the other side you have to jump quickly into the water and swim through the stonetube to the other side. Be aware there's something deadly in the water. If you succeed you just have to walk upstairs and left to the metal door again. This is the last one.


Last words
If you liked my guide pls rateup or comment below.

Additional pro tip: If you are chased by the monster but your pulse is going too high.
Just jump on it and rest for a while. It helped me much in the dungeon.

Confirmed: The 1. photo is to find, where Csontzuzo said. The achievement itself seems a little bit buggy, to obtain it I had to close the game twice - after I played 1 or 2 rooms further after picking up photo nr. 3. :-)

Guide wasn't much of a help sadly. Perhaps the game was changed a bit and it is now outdated. Also not helped that you literally screenshoot the floor with the photo instead of the environment from a small distance, what could have been more useful. Most issue i had with the first photo as it is nowhere there where you said. You dont need to return to the T intersection, you need to keep following the path which led to the flashlight, the swings are there.

Do you get the achievement when you pick up the 3rd picture or do you have to finish the game? :csgoanarchist:

Swings are at the left side of your spawn, not right (flashlight area) and the second picture is to the right after exiting the dungeon. Thanks for the guide tho :thumbsup:
