because my whole life has basically been undocumented aside from mandatory school and ID pictures, i bought my first ever DSLR (canon T7), for the purpose of changing that from now on.

i aim to shoot myself doing things i like, and being in places i go, or even set up some sort of props and LARP like a model to make myself into more of an artwork, imagine a tryhard dating profile or videogame character bio.
the thing is.. i have been taking photos of random things but i realized none of it is of people, and i find it hard to get myself into shots, i do have a tripod.

should i just use continuous shooting and try to be creative at home?
start with simple headshots?
does anyone have tips, ideas or knowledge i can use?
