    Very rarely, some people are born with a photographic memory (Edetic Imagery) but they usually grow out of it, by the time they reach adulthood. Photographic memory is not acquired, but you can improve your memory by simply repeating information in your mind.

    Photographic memory is an urban legend, people cant have one. Neither do apes. you can improve your memory with memory exvcersizes. people who claim to have "photographic" memory usually just have very good memory., they practice constantly.

    You can trust me on this, I'm a psychology major who will be graduating in a few months.

    No, either you have it or you don't. You can improve it a lot with exercise, but not to a photographic memory.

    Not if you weren't born with one.
