Link to video 10 Self Portrait Ideas When the Camera Doesn’t Love You:
• 10 Self portrait ideas...
In this video I’ll show you a bunch of tips how you can take self portraits both with a smartphone or your camera. I love to take self portraits and do almost all my photos by myself, and I’ll show how you can too! :)
I’ll also show you how you can do those really fancy top-down photos, both by building a crane thingy for your camera plus 2 ways you can do it with your phone.
Thank you so much for watching!
PS. Subscribe to my channel yay!

if you aren't gonna print the photos in huge sizes, and you just want your photos for social media or small print, the latest phones have fantastic quality and do the job, I print a lot of my iphone photos in small sizes and I love them!

I just found your channel today and it's been very helpful for me, thank you! I'm a professional photographer but I haven't been shooting for over a year now, just because of lack of motivation and feeling very jaded about the whole process. I used to do conceptual, fantasy, and surreal photos for various alt fashion magazines but I find them pretentious now. I don't know why but I can't get over the attention getting factor, so I started spending a lot more time outside and completely embraced nature photography which is my one true love! haha But I still like to do self portraits but I am so stuck in a rut with them because of the same reason as before. I don't want to try too hard or it just seems so fake. Like I literally get a uncanny valley feeling from the images and it becomes disturbing. But I love your ideas, they are exactly what I am looking for to spark my creativity again. Soft, simple images, so much more introspective without being extra.
Your way of explaining is really energetic. Nice tips
Thank you so much for sharing these tips Kika! I can’t wait to try snagging an interesting self portrait 📸 You’re a breath of fresh air and so fun to watch 🙏🏼
I’m so glad I fell over your channel you are amazing and so talented 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I have tried almost every app but I think it's reallt about Imagination. 🌻 If you need just filters, you can stick with VSCO.
Clear, straight to the point, and visually pleasing. I got a dslr and i dont know what to use it for except point and shoot. Now I know what to do. Thanks a lot, Kika!
All I need is a camera+background+ colorful outfits
It always makes me so joyful watching your love for creating! Your lightheartedness and enthusiasm for play is just inspiring ❤️🙏🏻🥰

I have that nude tulle skirt!!! I don't feel it flatters me anymore but I love it and it brings me so many memories...
I’m in the middle of an Instagram makeover course and I’m to the self portrait part and you popped in my feed just like magic happens all the time in my life I loved your first video I’ll probably bench out on a few and I already subscribed to your channel to make you really happy not that I need to because I see that your joy comes from the inside thank you so much for the tips they’re amazing.
Very nicely covered few more tips in yours then I covered in my "how to take your own photos" Good job
Found this channel today. Thank you so much for this. I've been worried about how to do this coz I have neither a tripod nor someone else who can take photos for me. I've also watched the other videos on creative self portrait ideas. Thank you so much.
I so love your work...your ideas and your generosity of sharing what you know...im so looking forward to seeing more and more videos from you...Much thankx! ❤️

It’s not about needing a boyfriend as a photographer. It’s a specialty that he had. And i have a blog so after dating him for so long i have almost forgot how to take my own self portraits. It’s nothing to laugh when someone had a heartbreak

Really glad to hear you got inspired by these tips :) The top down pics can be a bit of a hassle in the beginning, but with a bit of patient and some trial and error it's one of the most fun angles I think to try in your photos :)
Thank you for this one! I especially loved the clever method for taking photos from above. Definitely going to give that a try!
I just came across your channel and this is the first video I watched. Loved it and will watch the rest. I have been doing photography for a little while but am pushing into it seriously now and loved everything in this channel because I would like to get more shots of me as I travel around and I do get around most of the time alone. Thanks for the ideas, keep up the great work can't wait to see the rest of the channel. Had a quick look at your Insta, and it looks very cool.
Cute kitties! I love the playful concepts and ideas you create. Wonderful!!!
Love your quirky DIY tips on how to take or film flat lays!

Thank thing you do when you click your tongue, and talk, and make mistakes, but still include those in the video: it's so me!! I do that all the time!! But besides, this is a HUGE thank you for sharing this precious video!
Good job on this video and so many beautiful photos you took. Loved this!🌞💗
Some good fun ideas here.
Thank you! I’ve always wondered if there was an easy way to take the pictures from above. I haven’t tried those OR the forced perspective. I will have to soon. Love your videos, Kika.
