Interesting approach.. only one suggestion.. get a wireless not IR remote which requires a direct line of sight and also use the delay trigger option.. It will hopefully cut down the obvious and awkward hand trigger position and body language..

I have been there. And they are lots of thievery incidents there. Pick pockets every where. My tour bus also got rob during our dinner time.

Im planning to get mirrorless camera such as Sony A5100 with tripod, then use SMART REMOTE CONTROL (SONY PLAYMEMORIES) on Iphone to view and shot (Timer 10 sec) my desire photograph. 

Thanks man for your kind words 
I'm sure the shot would be better if taken by another person haha

Hoho, dedicated selfie camera Can use also ma if you want

Perhaps you can take a look at the Sony A5100, should fit your shooting style. Iinm, it can also be used to take shots using your handphone 

Get A6000. I've never use it before, but a lot of people are praising it for it's auto focus and specs.

I shot this using camera's built in timer and tripod, I don't have a remote, but I will try to get a remote next time I want to do this. Had to run back and forth to set camera and check image, it's tiring.

First, I like your portait photo! I love to shot close portrait (shallow depth of field) and environmental portrait. Need your professional suggest on lens.
 
Yes, with remote apps we may skip those tiring run back and setting camera, and just set the timer to hide our phone! 

A6000 is very near A5100 only different is A6000 have viewfinder and higher ISO as i survey at internet.

I have a dream, which is to travel all around world with my love one!
Of course i will bring along my camera to take down those moment as our memories.
Thus, this inspired me to have a idea, which is to take pre-wedding photo/couple photo(not selfie/wefie) at every place/country that we travelling, i wish to take it by myself (not possible to hire a professional photographer to follow me to travel around the world to take those photo )



Now i am looking a lot of pre wedding photo/couple photo to get the idea of how to take it and the solution is to bring Tripod and take the photo by myself.

Hi all the LOWYAT professional, any guidance/tips/suggestion/comment to my idea?
Thanks!

Both the a5100 and a6000 allows you to wirelessly take photos using your smartphone ("Sony Smart Remote Control" App) right? 
You can adjust where to focus (this one is the trickiest part, especially for solo shots), and even all the other camera settings too- extremely convenient. Just need to think of where to hide the phone 

[I don't have a Sony, but I have a Fujifilm that allows remote control through smartphone as well, should be similar]

you mean something like this?

I think every brand have their remote control apps, like Canon, Nikon...
For portrait photography, which lens is best? Normal prime? Wide angle? With or without zoom is better?
Thanks!

I tried on last Friday   


I think the photograph idea is the most important, then camera setting and camera quality.

 

Sorry im the newbie..

Tripod (if oversea I recommended Manfrotto Pixi, tiny and easy to bring), camera with wifi support (you able view from phone app)

Sample from mine


#X-T1 + 23mm f/1.4 + Pixi

Nice shot!

Haha nope, low % will happen in Japan
