Hello,
I hired a photographer for a photo shoot but they cancelled on me last minute and now I have some lighting equipment and my iPhone 7+ instead of their pro camera gear.
Nevertheless I need to take a couple of portrait type photos of myself and figured my iPhone 7+ is more than capable of taking some good shots, however considering I'm shooting this alone I was thinking about setting up a tripod and instead of setting the photo timer and then posing for the shot, I was thinking instead of to just film at 4K 60 FPS and then take screenshots of that video and use the screenshot as the photo and edit from there.
I mention this approach because I would hate having to set the timer and quickly run in front of the camera in hopes the shot comes out good and hate the idea of having to this repeatedly 50 times in the course of an hour. With the filming of 4K and 60FPS at the phone's highest quality Id rather just film myself in front of the camera and screenshot the good poses.
Any ideas or tips on this is truly appreciated. Thank you!
