We present the preliminary results on direct photon interferometry measurements in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 62.4 and 200 GeV using the STAR (Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC) detector. Photons are reconstructed via $e^+/e^-$ conversions in STAR Time Projection Chamber(TPC) and energy deposited by photons in STAR Barrel Electromagnetic Calorimeter(BEMC). The two-photon correlations are measured using (1) both photons measured using BEMC; (2) one photon from conversions and the other measured with BEMC. Both the methodologies and the possible constraints in the correlation function measurements are discussed.
