3 SIMPLE TRICKS FOR PORTRAITS // Self Portraits Ep 4

Welcome to the 4th installment of the self-portraits series. I'd say that the first 3 represents my original trilogy, just like the original Star Wars trilogy. This new episode represents how unmistakably horrible the first installment of the prequel trilogy was. Just kidding, I just wanted to change it up and make this short and sweet
Here are 3 super simple tricks you could use at home to up your self-portrait game.

    You cannot imagine how hyped I was to find out how well the first idea came out in my testing. I just randomly thought about it and exploded in hyped energy. I hope you guys enjoyed a more simpler, efficient presentation of these ideas :)

    So, I just discovered your channel and just instantly fell in love with your work and your personality. I was literally just sitting here looking for photography tips and advice and things like that (I'm an aspiring photographer), and when I started watching your videos I was instantly hooked. I love that you make yourself laugh and you want to inspire others and that you're open to being silly and creative and trying new things. I love that you speak from your heart when you're talking about a subject that you take very seriously (ie. Entitlement). But umm... Sorry if I sound all fangirl 😅😂 I just think you're doing amazing and keep up the great work! Oh, and I subscribed!
