Self Portrait

 

The objective is to create a nice portrait of yourself that expresses something about you.  The photograph must be taken INDOORS and WITHOUT FLASH.

 

• Give information about yourself.  An environmental portrait is okay but not required.  Be expressive.
• Self-timer and tripod suggested, though a long cable release will also work.
• With a tripod a slow shutter speeds will work.
• May use a mirror.
• Be careful with your focus.  You may be shooting with a wide f-stop so your depth of field will be rather small.  It is helpful to have someone stand in for you, or set up a prop to focus on where your face will be.
• Try several types of shots.
• Pay attention to lighting and composition—be careful of sharp lines in the background.
