📋 About This Mod

𝔎𝔦𝔱𝔥'𝔯𝔞𝔨 𝔓𝔥𝔬𝔱𝔬𝔰𝔥𝔬𝔬𝔱

Adds Dragon and Githyanki base game animations to photo mode in 9 collections, even the ones that do not make sense.

𝔉𝔬𝔯 𝔇𝔯𝔞𝔤𝔬𝔫𝔰:

Combat Stance

Githyanki Choke Point

𝔉𝔬𝔯 𝔓𝔩𝔞𝔶𝔢𝔯𝔰:

𝔑𝔬𝔱𝔢:

The dragon models are quite large, and can be difficult to place using the default photo mode sliders. So Queen Vlaakith demands you use the photo mode sliders from Lighty Lights by rakor1 for better photos. Prince Orpheus himself has also stated that this method is superior. Such is the necessity for capturing your ascension to Tu'narath.

𝔎𝔫𝔬𝔴𝔫 ℑ𝔰𝔰𝔲𝔢𝔰:

This mod does not work with the skeletal dragon model that is in the game. Fixed using Creature Photo Mode Fix

The legs can look broken at times, move up or down on the Y axis to fix it.

Some poses are not centred and are difficult to see. I still included them and marked them with '*'.

ℭ𝔬𝔪𝔭𝔞𝔱𝔦𝔟𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔱𝔶:

This mod is not compatible with any mod that overrides the following:

DRAGON_Red_Base

DRAGON_Red_Head_A_Base

Kith'rak Photoshoot is a compact animation mod for Baldur's Gate 3 that adds a dragon and Githyanki rider animation for photo mode. With 55 endorsements and nearly 50,000 downloads, it's a niche but popular choice for players who want dramatic screenshots. Last updated in February 2026, it remains current.

✨ Key Features

Adds a dragon and Githyanki rider animation for photo mode.
Designed specifically for use in photo mode.
Recent update as of February 2026.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge download count (48k) compared to endorsements (55) — clearly a lot of people are grabbing this for their screenshots.
  • Tiny, focused mod: does exactly one thing, so no bloat or conflicts.
  • Freshly updated (Feb 2026), so it's likely compatible with the latest game version.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 55 endorsements — a small fraction of downloaders bothered to endorse, which might mean it's not mind-blowing.
  • Purely cosmetic, so if you're not into photo mode, this is useless.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who live for dramatic photo mode shots and want to capture a dragon-riding Githyanki. If you're a screenshot enthusiast or roleplayer looking for epic poses, this is a quick add. Skip if you never touch photo mode or want gameplay changes.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you're in photo mode before trying to trigger the animation — it won't work in normal gameplay.
  • If you're using other animation mods, load this one last to avoid conflicts.
  • Check the mod's posts tab for any user-submitted screenshots to see the animation in action before installing.
