How I take my own photos - self portrait brand photo challenge 📸

No photographer? No problem. Today I'm challenging myself to shoot all my own brand photos for 2023 - and I've only got two hours in the studio to try to shoot 3 outfits, in a bunch of different settings, all with just my camera, a tripod, and an app on my phone. And I'm going to show you show I do it!
