This was brilliant advice. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. The background music is engaging as well.
Thanks, glad you liked it :)
How do you change the pose position on Xbox?
I really like this. I'm so glad I watched this because I love taking pictures of my sim family but it's so hard.. I was wondering how would you be able to take a picture with a family that has a toddler .. I really want a family picture with the toddlers in the photos :) thank you for sharing your awesome ideas
Hello Nicole! Toddler photos would be cool! Hm, I don't expect the studio object to work with toddlers technically, but I did not test this yet. But it should be easy enough to let a sim carrying a toddler walk onto the studio, not using the "take photo of..." function, not of adult nor toddler, but using the wall top hide a 3rd sim you'll actually be photographing. Or, it might be even easier to arrange for using the ordinary cameras, not the studio object. I'll post again when I get to test this.
Simmerville okay thank you :)
Just o add - toddlers can also be seated. You might need to arrange for the session on their home lot though, as they can't travel everywhere.
Thanksss this is so far the coolest and easiest trick to take nice photos without having to use photoshop and sims4studio to edit :)
Glad you like it :)
Best one I've seen that doesn't include mods!
Wow I never thought of using the cheat with this item before. Glad I watched :) Thanks!
Hi & thanks! That cheat opens up for so many possibilities, glad you watched :)
thank you so much for making this video. it's going to be really helpful to get my sims posing for tumblr edits without being in cas!
@Em Lew A bit late, but hello and thanks for posting! :)
You deserve more views for this! Such great advice
Thank you so much! I'm planning an additional vid with tips for the studio :)
Love this idea, thank you so much for sharing, cant wait to use this in my game and lets play
Thanks. Great ideas. I'm going to have to try this out sometime.
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Awesome Video.
Thanks!
idk but it give me a cute vibe
Thanks so much!
Yay! Also check out my 8 new backdrops available from my blog at simmerville.blogspot.com
This is a lot of help thanks!
Gload you liked it! :)
this content right here!
This is genius
Quick tip: You can have the sim sing and then catch them during a long note. The sad songs make for good spooky pics. :)
Thanks for the tip! I never thought of the singing expressions, but that sounds cool! Will try def try that!
This video is great! Thank you so much!
Thanks for commenting, and I hope to record more!
woah--this is so cool! im happy that i dont need mods
AWESOME IDEA I loved your video
Thank you, QueenBean! PS: Love your nick :)
Brilliant!!
I wish we could do that on PS4.
I put columns and stuff as props
Brilliant!
Thanks for watching! :)
What about kissing or holding a baby
Hi! Kissing should be possible only for sims that are not posing. I suppose a non-posing sim can be holding a baby, too? Hm, that would make a cute photo, I never tried it.
Interesting, this info is helpful thank you for sharing. Good video!
Thanks!
Simmerville You are welcome!
Thanks !
Anytime! I'm planning on a part to with a few more tips and experiments involving the photo studio :)
@@simmerville9666 I'm waiting for more tips~! what about family picture with two kids?
Good to knows you are waiting :) It will be up right after Easter.
Thanks for the tips. I love this music as well. Where is it from?
Thanks!. The music is provided by UA-cam, it's in their audio library.
Thank you so much for these tips
This is awesome tips I honestly never thought of really using the photo studio. How did you get them to pose like a family? I have some legacy pictures
Hi and thanks! You will need to position the seating without blocking the spot that the photographed sim(s) will walk to. Additional sims an also be standing, but it gives better phots when those in front are sitting down.
How did u make them pose like that
Tysm this rlly helped
Glad you liked it! :)
Is there a trick for Flash Photo Studio?
Is possible use reall foto?Like background ?
Hello. If you want to use real photo as the background, you would first need to create that RL photo on a TS4 object, which can be done with ie Sims4Studio. It takes some tech skills, but is not very hard to handle. Photo can be added to the Photo Studio object, wallpapers, or you could add it to a poster that you would then enlarge in game. On my blog you will find 3 custom versions of the Sims Photo Studio object, which gives you a total of 24 new backgrounds - none od them are RL photos, though. simmerville.blogspot.com/search/label/Downloads
anyone know a mod to get more poses for the studio? That does not involve the pose player mod
Nope, sorry.
Wow thanks ^^
When you take the photo with a chair in it how do you get them to sit in on it
Hi! I don't recall there was any problem sitting on the chair. But maybe you placed it too far back on the studio object, blocking the slots where sims would normally stand? Try positioning the chair slightly forward. If this won't work, pls let me know, there might have been some patching changing stuff.
@@simmerville9666 Ok thank you I will try that😀!
How do you great the pictures though, I have taken the pictures but I dont know how to get then to put them up are they in my household inventory?
Hi! The pictures your Photographer takes will go to that sim's personal inventory. It's the same as using an ordinary camera or taking pictures with the phone.
Do i have to get Get To Work?
And if not, how do i use poses in photos?
You need GetToWork to use the Photo Studio object. But you can take similar pictures with the cameras that I believe are available in base game. Then you can download Pose Player (a CC made tool, easy to grab and install) + there are many CC poses out there to use with Pose Player. There also exists a stuff pack with photographer career and a few more tools, but you don't really need that to just take some family pictures for the wall or shelf.
I tried to do the chair thing to take a maternity photo however my sim still posed. Help?
Hello! When photographing a sim on a chair, you must technically photograph some other sim. If you don't want that other sim to show in the picture, you need to build that wall to hide him/her. Build wall first, then position the studio objects so that the spot is still available behind that wall (moveobjects on). When not using the poses, it might be easier using a regular camera, though :)
Oh thank you. I thought you might not reply bc this video is old. I hate that with the cameras the Sims can only take a picture of themselves with a selfie. Plus I'm trying to take modeling type photos for her simstagram and I can't, it sucks
Did you dl some cc poses? They exist, but I never tried them. And you can take good photos of other sims with the most expensive camera. Did you miss out on some of the menu options?
Hey there awesome video! I was wondering how would you make your sim sit, play a instrument, etc while taking the picture?
Hello and thanks! Turning Free Will off will make all those actions easier. Once they get seated, they will not get up unless their needs are critical etc. If you place a tv in front of them (out of the picture), they will all look in the same direction. For instruments, you might need to try a few times, because they might take a step aside or turn away from the camera, but with some luck it should work :)
How do u get the actual photo stufio
The studio object comes with the Get to Work expansion pack.
Is there a way when you're taking pictures of two sims at once to have them swap positions? For example have the one on the left move to the right and the one on the left move to be the one on the right side?
Hello! No, unfortunately, I've never found a way to do that. I think if you first take a photo of just one of the sims, then add the 2nd sim, it might be possible to sort it out, but I never tried.
@@simmerville9666 Alright cool. I got the moschino pack now too which helps a lot for this stuff.
Quick question, so for the xbox one do you know how to take pictures at random time like for example if your sims are getting engaged and you want to capture that moment, what button do you need to take the picture?
Sorry, I never played on xbox. Hopefully someone else might leave a hint.
@@simmerville9666 oh ok
hi do you have an updated download for your studio recolours?
Hello! There are 4 versions of the studio object on my blog simmerville.blogspot.com (downloads). Not sure what you mean by updated, do they no longer work with your game? I still use them frequently with no problem.
@@simmerville9666 its saying file not found when trying to download from your blog?
@@ThoughtfullSimmer Oh oh... I found the error - fixed now :) Sorry!
@@simmerville9666 aw thank you 😊 love your tips and tricks :)
Where is it in The Sims 4
You will need the GoToWork EP. The studio object is in the Skills&entertainment (?) category. But I think most of the cameras are now available in basegame (same main category>Creative).
How do you make them pose?
My sim just stand still doing nothing 😩
Hello! The sims you chose from clicking on the studio object will pose. The others, if you place more than 2, or various ages, will just stand/sit, so I put the tv set there to make sure they at least look "into the camera" :)
Also note that their mood will affect what poses they use. I noticed that a sim might use the same pose again and again unless you send him off tyhe studio object, so trhat he needs to reposition - then there is a bigger chance he will choose a different pose.
I don't understand
I have is expansion pack but cannot find the item anywhere:(
Hello! Did you find it? It's in the object group Activities and Skills, Creative. You can filter the catalog to see only Get to Work objects. The icon is a bit hard to understand, it's black and white, and I too overlooked it several times in the past.
@@simmerville9666 thanks for you reply. I'll try again tonight!
so the photo studio is already there when you download get to work expansion pack?
Sorry for my late reply. Yes, the photo studio object is included with TS4 Get To Work EP. It can be used as is, you won't need to build or add anything. It's more fun though to have a photographer residing your town.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !!! HOW DO I USE YOUR CHEAT THOE ?
Hello. You hopefully figured already, but you need to press CTRL + SHIFT + C to open the cheat window.
This was great!! Thank you so much! :) If you are interested, I make speed builds and CAS Tuesday through Saturday! The support would mean the absolute world
Cool! I'll check out your channel :)
awesome! Thank you so much!!
Is there any way to photograph toddlers?
Hi! I think it should be possible either let the toddler walk onto the studio thing (being like a requisite), being placed into a highchair already strategically positioned, or an older sim could carry the toddler (not the main sim photographed, though).
i dont get how im supposed to get the studio
Hello! The object comes with the Get To Work expansion pack.
Simmerville yes i bought it but it was all hard to find through the new objects. I found it and put up a studio, a great video thank you.
how do you get the set up?
The photo studio object comes with the EP Get to Work.
How do i make them do specific poses? Usually they just do a random pose
I normally make them watch TV, because then they will all have a common focus point. There exist numerous pose downloads though (custom content), but I never downloaded any of those. I prefer expressions that are already in the game.
