That might sound rather vain, but let me explain myself a little.
Those who have been following me for a hot minute, already know that I am both the model and the photographer in my work. It is quite limiting to both pose and push the shutter at the same time. Well, not really the shutter, I do use a remote and a tripod, but that is quite a lot of moving parts to take into account and it does cause frustrating moments. And I definitely lack the patience to fiddle hours and hours with the tripod, and a remote that refuses to work unless it's close to the camera and in a certain angle.
I have a lot of ideas for shoots that are virtually impossible to do just by myself. I could always work with another photographer but I only trust myself. Everyone has their own style which usually differs drastically from mine and what I'm trying to achieve with my photographs. Though definitely the biggest problem for me is that I retract to my shell when I'm not the one in full control. We might get some alright picture and the photographers might even be exited for them but I can see that there is a lot of emotion missing, just a pretty picture to show, and that does not do the trick for me.
I'm always trying to think of ways to improve, and make easier, my self portrait work. If anyone has some killer tips or tricks, help a girl out!
