Tip #1: Bring Something to Focus On

The problem that I saw when I looked through my viewfinder was that I didn't have anything to focus on aside from the items in the far distance. This of course would make for a perfectly blurry photo of me, which isn't at all what I wanted.
One easy solution to this problem is to bring something to stand in your place. Height doesn't matter so much as distance, but try to match it to yourself as best as you can for accuracy. If you have an extra tripod or light stand, these make perfect substitutes that will stand upright exactly where you need them. I was out in my yard so I grabbed a shovel from my shed, stuck it in the ground, focused and then moved the shovel. Rudimentary, but it worked perfectly.

Tip #2: Get Closer  

The most common mistake made by photographers is that they are not physically close enough to their subjects. In some cases this means that the center of interest—the subject—is just a speck, too small to have any impact. Even when it is big enough to be decipherable, it usually carries little meaning. Viewers can sense when a subject is small because it was supposed to be and when it's small because the photographer was too shy to get close.
Don't be shy. If you approach people in the right way, they'll usually be happy to have their picture made. It's up to you to break the ice and get them to cooperate. Joke around with them. Tell them why you want to make the picture. Practice with people you know so that you are comfortable; people can sense when you aren't.

Tip #3: Capture You

My last tip is to use the images below only loosely as inspiration. A self-portrait should be a very personal expression, not simply a mirror of something you've seen elsewhere. Think about who you want to be and how you want to say that. Use props, scenery, pose and lighting conditions to convey your personality. And most of all, have fun!

I picked these two photos  for casual portraits because they both have no story to tell. Its a really simple photo to look at. 

I picked these two photos for formal portrait because: the man is in the army and he is dressed in a really formal attire and he looks like a fancy person, and i picked the girl in the wedding dress because she is a really pretty person and she is also dressed fancy.








I picked these two photos for environmental portraits because they both have a story to tell and the two girls look like they belong there 


















I picked these two photos for photographery self because they bothe repersent one person plain back grounds nothing else to say




































.

My plan is to take a posed photo of myself and i wan it to be outside in the nature like in front  of a tree or something like that .. And i will really constrate on the way i take the photo and what ISO i use and stuff like that....

F2.8 Vs. F16














1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture: Are pupil because that is the part of the body that i guess focuses or you see out of.
2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture OPENING, the higher the Aperture NUMBER.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field? The size of the aperture has a big affect of the depth of field.
