What is a Self-Portrait Studio?

If you've ever wanted to be both behind and in front of the camera, a self-portrait studio might just be your new favorite place. In a world where selfies dominate social media, there’s something truly unique and professional about stepping into a self-portrait studio. Imagine being in a beautifully lit space, surrounded by high-quality equipment, where you control the shutter, the angles, and the mood – all while being in the shot yourself. Welcome to the magic of a self-portrait studio.

A New Kind of Photography Experience

At SELFIELAB, Vancouver’s first mirror self-portrait studio, we’re reinventing how people capture their best moments. Unlike traditional photoshoots where a photographer directs you, a self-portrait studio gives you total creative freedom. Think of it as a space where you are the photographer and the subject. Our studio is designed to empower you to be in control, whether you’re snapping professional headshots, creative full-body shots, or just having fun with friends.



How It Works

In a self-portrait studio, the concept is simple but revolutionary. At SELFIELAB, you walk into a private, professional setup with a camera on a tripod connected to a remote or mirror system. This allows you to strike a pose, adjust your position, and capture your photo exactly when you're ready. You’re not rushing to get the perfect shot in 3 seconds like with a timer. Instead, you control the whole experience—from selecting the backdrop to fine-tuning your pose.

And don't worry about getting lost in the process—our intuitive setup means anyone can step in and feel like a pro, whether you’re a selfie enthusiast or someone looking to capture special memories.

Why Choose a Self-Portrait Studio?

Here’s what makes a self-portrait studio a game-changer for your photography experience:

  1. Complete Creative Control: You decide how you want to look, feel, and pose in your photos. There's no pressure to follow someone else’s direction, which often leads to more authentic and comfortable images.

  2. Privacy and Comfort: One of the main benefits of a self-portrait studio is the ability to relax in a private space. You don’t need to worry about being on display or judged, which helps people feel more at ease and confident.

  3. High-Quality Results: Our studio isn’t just about snapping a few casual shots. We provide professional lighting, high-definition cameras, and high-end props to ensure every photo you take looks studio-quality. You leave with images that could easily be on a magazine cover or a professional portfolio.

  4. Versatility: A self-portrait studio is perfect for all types of photography needs. Whether you’re capturing professional headshots, celebrating a milestone, or creating content for your personal brand, the space adapts to you. Plus, at SELFIELAB, you can choose from different backdrops and props to suit any style or occasion.

Who Is It For?

The beauty of a self-portrait studio is that it’s for everyone. Whether you’re a solo artist looking for headshots, a couple celebrating an anniversary, or a group of friends wanting to capture memories, this concept is as versatile as it gets.

  • For Professionals: Entrepreneurs, freelancers, or corporate employees who need fresh, professional-looking headshots.

  • For Creatives: Bloggers, influencers, and artists looking for high-quality self-portraits that reflect their unique style.
