Shooting a self-portrait is a
challenging task, but can be very rewarding. The one person that most
photographers probably photograph least is themselves, and this is true
even with those who enjoy shooting portraits of others. However, taking
self-portraits has several advantages: you'll always have a willing
subject, and you may be able to interpret the "real you" better
than others can. You can also use yourself as a test subject for experimenting
with lighting or other creative techniques.
