- Think about your motivation and emotions: Blankly staring at the camera rarely gets good results. Be silly, don’t be afraid to over-act. The worst that can happen is that you fill up your memory card with useless photos; but you might also find yourself with a proper gold-nugget of a self portrait.
- If you’ve got a remote trigger, that’s usually a better and more controllable than trying to use the self-timer.
- If you can, hook up your camera directly to your computer (or, for extra-fancy bonus points, your TV) so you can see your pictures come up as you take ‘em. It’s a lot easier to iterate and to make gradual improvements to your photos that way.
Environmental Photos

These two are my favorite photos because they look very interesting. They show lots of detail. They aren't boring pictures and show lots of emotions.
casual photos
These two photos are my favorite casual portraits because they show lots of emotions and shows lots of detail. The color is very good and it isn't a boring.
When I do my self portrait assignment I'm going to shoot Frankie Torres. I figured I shoot her out in the courtyard because there is alot of open space and I can really work with her. What I will do to make the shot successful is taking clear shots. Making sure I get creative. Not stand in the same spot over and over again. Make sure when I'm outside that I'm not facing the sun otherwise the shot will come out white and you won't be able to see the picture. I will make sure to get balance and maybe even the rule of thirds.
