I've been seeing all these wonderful pics in the photo gallery. So the bigquestion is simply, "Who took that one". May it's your wife, girlfriend, partner, lover, you get the picture.

I take my own photos, using a tripod and a camera with a timer.

Digital camera, tripod, shutter timer, some extra lighting in addition to flash. In other words, me. If I ask my wife, she'll take a few, but I always take more than a few, so again, me.
I haven't taken any photos yet. Still easing into this with my wife. I was thinking if I get to the point that I want to see myself dressed I would take a photo of myself...tripod, digital timer etc. Glad to hear that others are doing that as well. For me though I am not sure if I want to see what I look like dressed. I have never tried to make myself up with makeup except maybe some lipstick. I like the way the clothing looks and feels on my. Not to be self deprecating but I think I would be an ugly women, I hope that isnt wrong to say but I am quite masculine looking. Just today I painted my toenails for the first time ever, they don't feel different but my feet look great
Normally I take my own but there are a few that have been taken by a female friend.
I get help occasionally. But, my best photos r taken with my camera timer!
U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.
Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!
Some of mine are from professional makeovers, some are taken by friends and others by the camera timer

I take my own. Sometimes with a cannon digital, but now, more often with my COMPUTER camera. A really good Idea, is to take high rez VIDEO then you can pause and snip some really good and unexpected frames. I also play around a bit with contrast and brightness, and sometimes zap out a mole or two. But that's about it. I wanna see what I'm supposed to look like, and not some distorted or altered form.

I usually take my own. I have a friend with a camera that’s pretty good at taking pics. He knows I dress but hasn’t seen me dressed yet. I might ask him about taking pics for me soon...
I use my good digital camera, additional flash unit on top rather than built in, sometimes turn on other local lighting. A good tripod and the 10 second timer. I have used the WiFi and smartphone app to control it remotely, but then need to get phone out of the picture. I process them in Photoshop to autocorrect lighting levels and contrast. Sometimes I blur out hair on arms and chest. And save a smaller version for posting here (cropped and lower JPEG quality). I have confirmed this website strips off the metadata from the picture, so the GPS coordinates are lost.

I have a camera with timer, my current avatar is a phone selfie.
Here today, gone tomorrow....
There is a great article on the sister house site about taking photos.
I have gone the camera timer route in the past but never liked the running to get into position. On a lot of cameras you have to reset the timer which with long nails can be problematic especially on touch screens on a smartphone.
When I got a wireless remote for my DSLR I was in heaven. I could calmly pose and take multiple photos of the same pose easily. I now use a $10 bluetooth remote and tripod with my iPhone and would never go back to using a timer. The iPhone takes acceptable photos but I wish I hadn't gotten rid of my DSLR when I moved to Australia.
Regular camera on a tripod using the self timer set at 10 seconds.
Be yourself. Everyone else is taken!
I just use my phone say "shoot" and it takes it automatically.
When I get the opportunity [which seems less and less these days] I use a tripod and wireless remote. I'd previously used the 10s timer and also a shutter release cable, but paying AU$30 for a wireless remote was the best investment ever; so many more shots are in focus and have a better pose.
A small tip - even with a wireless remote, put your camera on 2s delay so you can re-position your hand or conceal the device.
My trusty tri-pod, I wore out the first one so invested in a better one. I use the camera timer set it to take 3 consecutive shots and try to move around a little. Usually need about 10 pictures to get something not too scary.
I enjoy being a boy, being a GIRL like me!!!
I wish mine would take 3 in succession. I looked thru the manual and didn't see that option.
That would be handy for sure
All me whether in the mirror, or with a camera/tripod/self-timer. Luckily since we're now in the digital age, I can afford to take 100 and keep the 2 good ones lol

Majority of my pictures are done by my friends with their cameras and my life partner with my camera. Rarely I do selfies and never liked any used by the self timer. A transgender friend hosted professional photo nights for the local crossdressing social group and I did not like the experiences of being told to pose in a certain way, when to smile, etc stuff that needs to be done to achieve a successful picture. For some reason I just can’t get the smile timed to the delayed “cheese” or hold the smile or pose long enough. I am more comfortable with short notice camera posing and tend to like when someone takes pictures when I am naturally enjoying the fun outings or socializing
I usually setup my Nikon D3100 on a tripod and put it on a 10 second timer when I take most of mine. There's some I'll take with my phone and maybe use a selfie stick too.
Bathroom mirror, DSLR on tripod, 10 second timer. Will add a flash or two off camera in slave mode usually.
I shoot into the mirror so I can see how stupid my posing looks
before hitting the shutter button LOL

Own pictures are taken by me. I use a camera with a timer, tripod, and sometimes a flash if needed. Most of mine are taken with the same back drop. Have thought I might try and take a few outside on the back porch with the same procedure. Digital is the only way to go, also get a camera that has a ten second timer and can reset with a push of the button.
I use a DSLR with tripod and timer.

My wife does take some of my photos, but the majority are taken by me. Nikon DSLR, remote shutter, tripod, inexpensive lighting kit.
