Photography/Photo collections

There are many collections of subjects for a Sim to photograph in The Sims 3: World Adventures. These are shown in the skill panel after the first subject has been captured from that set. When trying to capture a photo for a collection, make sure that the game gives it the caption for the shot.

Plants and Flowers
24 subjects. Pictures of various plants. The common plants can be found around your base Neighborhood, but some require travel to all three vacation destinations. Having the Gardening skill will help.

The plant has to have sprouted to be recognized as a subject for the picture.

If you are having trouble photographing garden plants, check to see if you have a sprinkler covering them.

Architecture and Buildings
12 subjects. The Academy in Shang Simla is also a subject. There is a problem reported by some player that some rabbitholes are not registered as the subjects of this photo collection, to get the subject players must move their sims to another town and capture the picture there, or alternatively use Edit Town mode to temporarily add a base game rabbithole to their town.

Travel
20 subjects, all around the world.

Around Town
13 subjects, buildings and vehicles around your home town.

There is a problem reported by some player that some Rabbit holes are not registered as the subjects of this photo collection, for example Brunton's Boxcar Diner is the diner for Twinbrook but when you try to capture the picture, the diner subject doesn't appear. So if the player want to get a diner subject, they must move their sim to Sunset Valley or Bridgeport and capture the picture there, or go to Edit Town mode and add the base game Hogan's Deep-Fried Diner.
