Self Portraits vs. the Selfie
1. A selfie is a photograph that you take of yourself, typically with a smart phone, etc. and posted on social media. 2. A self-portrait is a portrait of an artist produced or created by that artist. 3. I do think there is definitely a difference between a selfie and a self portrait. As most people know a selfie is where you just hold the camera up in front of your face and snap the photo. Selfies are a more casual and less creative way of taking a photo of yourself. A self portrait takes a bit more time to plan out and it is a bit more formal of a photo. 4. I really prefer both selfies and self portraits. I like selfies because they are quick and fun and easy to snap, unlike self portraits. I like self portraits though because of the creativity you can put into it, etc. 5. I do not believe one is more important than the other. They are both photographs of yourself, so in the end, it is the same.
