There are many ways to achieve a 3D photo, but these ways are far from being perfect. Each method has it's downsides, from slightly blurry images to having the viewer strain their eyes to see the image.
A new form of 3D image is currently in the works and brings 3D as close to perfection as it has ever been. This method uses 2 digital images, one polorized at 90 degrees and one normal, overlaid on top of each other. The viewer wears normal polorized glasses to see the image. The new technology is said to be HD quality and provide vivid color and sharp, unpixelated images without the uncomfortable, unsafe goggles that have been used with past methods. This newer, digital 3D was first used with mass audiances with Disney's Chicken Little and is quickly being improved.

There used to be a camera on the market named NIMSLO, as well as other manufacturers, who had a method of doing that - at least to some degree - but they did not work out really well. They printed on a lenticular paper and worked like those little things that you buy at fairs and such where you look into a little thing and if you move it one way or the other you see different images. The way the stereoscope worked, those things y ou see in antique stores, was to make two prints and put them in just the right positions so that they almost came together in the optical system in the stereoscope giving a 3rd dimension.

Stereography is the thing here. It could be considered the closest thing to 3D using 2D because it works in a similar way to the stereo-vision of human eyes.
Unlike those red/green photos that you need special glasses for. With stereography there's no need for any glasses - just a bit of viewing practice!
There's a neat explanation of how it works here:

Not on any "hard" media, no, but using laser projections you can get a three-dimensional illusion. If the image moves, then it even has four dimensions--time being considered a dimension also.

Depends on what you mean by "3D". They do have stereographs, and as the previous poster mentioned, they do have 3d holograms.

Check out "holography" on your search engine.
