Photo equipment for self-photographing!

Hi everyone,

We are planning on a private ceremony with just the 2 of us. Possibly outdoors in the mountain, but possibly also just in our hotel room if there is a nice balcony? Anyway, we won't be hiring a photographer for this, but I still want good pictures. So I am wondering, what are your recommendations for lenses/tripods/apps/other photography-enhancing equipment?! We have an iPhone X and XS between us, if this info is helpful. Thanks in advance!

I highly recommend a photographer even if you find one on Groupon ($100) I tried this route: iPhone engagement vs pro photographer engagements and the iPhone route sucked the photos didn’t capture the story of the day. From posing, to quality , to not enough pictures. I tried two engagement photo shoots with iPhones and it was awful

Hey there! Would you consider visiting a store, such a Best Buy and getting some expert advice on equipment to invest in? This may be best to ensure you’re not wasting money. You could also do a test before hand!
