Forget selfies and learn to create proper self-portraits using a tripod and a camera. Once you find the right location, set your device to self-timer mode; if you don’t like using a timer, you can also activate it using a remote control. When you’re ready, press the shutter, walk to your position, and pose. If you want self-portraits on the go, you can also take a photo of yourself in front of a mirror. Why you should do it: Self-portraits are the ultimate form of self-expression in photography, and to a degree, it is also a right of passage. A little research will reveal that almost every famous photographer has produced at least one self-portrait in their career. Apart from the artistic aspect of this exercise, it also teaches you firsthand how to recognize and fix bad and awkward poses.
