Got 2 photos using this method! First one I got was Dom’s which really surprised me because I don’t really give him much gifts and he’s one of my more recent villagers. Second photo I received the day after Dom gave me his was Flora’s. This one I was expecting because she’s my oldest villager. Haven’t received any other photos yet after these two but I’m definitely sticking with this full inventory method for now since it seems to be working the best for me at the moment.
 
I really appreciate the info. I do have a question. If you give them the gold wreath or any expensive wreath does it replaces one of the 32 furniture?? Could I use this to farm for the photos and have a near original interior?

Yes, a wreath is still a furniture item.
 
I understand why I didn't get photos from my villagers anymore now... Because before this change it was quite easy just by offering them wrapped fruits every day !
Thank you for sharing this, I will change my strategy.
 
only reason I'm asking is because the wreath does not counts toward the crafting furniture achievement.

It should still show up as a hanging furniture in the nook shopping app I think. I can't check right now.

If it doesn't, you are more than welcome to test it and see if furniture disappears.

Also note that the starter peppy house does has a wreath hanging on the walls.

Ill play around with it ty.
 
Updated original villager definition.
Assessed fossils are considered to be furniture.
Including link to the furniture replacement guide
 
Tried it yesterday and today i got ankhas photo in the mail ty op it workss!
One pic left before i get all 10 of my villagers :D
 
Oh man. I've been giving Bunnie wrapped fruit to get her picture but I guess I need to stop now. Or rather, get her friendship level to 5+ and then try the fruit stack. >_<
 
it works, but i'm too impatient to wait for next day's gifts and/or i don't tt, so i ended up gifting the iron wall lamp still for some. i just gift, exit without saving if it's not the pic, repeat-- just so i would not make their inventory full. it could take around 4-5 reset, but i get their pics so it's cool. i quit if i still don't get it, do the stacked fruit trick & wait for next day.

it's not advisable for everyone, but personally i could settle for the wall gifts (after doing the wrapped fruit until i reach best friends status) because i don't gift that much furniture AND i don't sell my villagers and label them as original, i most definitely redesign their houses. but i doubt i have even gifted 20. most furniture gifts i've given them are still displayed. i'm not posting this as advise though. just sharing what i did so don't quote me on this lol.

I've been giving wrapped fruit to get them to level 5 which is working and in the meantime did the stacked fruit trick with the one villager I knew was already level 5 and it worked perfectly! 9 more villagers to go ;)
 
I remember in Wild World the photo giving was based on true friendship.

It didn't carry a monetary value.

Eloise was the first animal to ever give me a photo back in 2005.
She used to talk about how she would give me something special if we became good friends.

After giving me her photo she would even ask about it.
"Are you taking care of that special item I gave you?".

Word for word.

Now.. it's like they don't exist.
It's a random exchange based on the value of what you've given them.

Yes cuz friendship levels dont exist. Time to stop comparing things to previous games. If u aint enjoy it then dont play it. Plus it takes a long time to actually get the pic as friendship builds for a long period of time.

Maybe don't jump to the "if you don't like it don't play it line".

You may not know this, but people who have been playing for fifteen years know what the older games had, and can have an opinion on what the current game lacks, reguarding friendship, without being put in the "Oh, you must hate the game" pile.

My post was about this topic, and how Wild World was reguarding friendship and photo giving.
 
doesn't friendship level exist?

not gonna lie, it's a bit weird that getting the photo is tied to the worth of your gift. in animal crossing land, style & color trumps worth. especially with villagers. if the style is not their preferred i think the worth of it doesn't matter. or at least it used to not. it's somewhat weird that if it wasn't for datamined info or guides online, you wouldn't be able to get the pics now with little gifts here & there if you're already best friends with a villager.

Gifts isn't the only way to acquire photos. You could wait until they give you a quest, they are sick, or the treasure hunt for that photos. I think it's possible to get in the mail randomly but the fruits stack tricks forces them to mail you something from a pool of items.

oh true. you can get it in the mail randomly probably very low chance. i just mean with gifts, i didn't elaborate. but requests are much rare now than in previous games. i've gotten all my best friends pics now & none of them were from other ways of acquiring them. i think it could be heavily based off luck, i know people have gotten it through quests. my villagers have gotten sick and never got a pic as reward from a medicine. i wish i got it that way. it makes it much more special. but never happens to me, not even on their birthdays 😿
i guess it could just take a while without guides. if i did the fruit trick (got it from the 3rd time) and the exit without saving trick (after 4-6 tries), then i assume there's also about 1 out of 4 chances you'd get a pic as a gift with those quests--which i feel like only happens once a month.

they must've designed it so that we'd get pics after a long time, like 6 months naturally without any tricks. but we'll be lying if we say we're willing to wait that long, or else why are we all in this thread right lmao.

it took time for me even with guides! got fauna & jeremiah's pics this week, who are residents since april!
 
Got one photo from a lost item and also another from the full pocket method, guess the wrapped coconut era is over for me 😔
