A picture that includes yourself (see selfie) and at least one other person, usually in the background, who is completely unaware that their picture was taken.

Short for "stealthy selfie" and usually performed between friends as a good natured prank, stelfies are considered a whimsical and fun pastime.

There are those who take pictures of other people and post them in public places without their permission but mainstream stelfie enthusiasts do not support this practice.
I caught George picking his nose when I took this stelfie at the concert last night.

When a person constantly takes selfies and is also named Stefan, or Steffy. Rare cases include people with the name Stefania.
Man Stefan Mira Kuzmanovic is such a Stelfie, full took a pic of himself doing a fakey McTwisty and screaming "I'm Steffy and I know it!"

A photograph resemblant of oneself, and can look as if it was taken by someone else. People like me who use a Macbook, or people who have a laptop fitted with a camera can take these "stealth" selfies with the aid of Photo Booth, or similar programmes/apps. It is called a stelfie because you took the photo yourself without the aid of holding your camera phone up to a mirror (BAD selfie) or without the amateur shot of having your arm held out to take such a photo.

Hence, laptop photographs taken of oneself are taken stealthily and thus called "stelfies".
I can't tell if this photograph was taken by a genuine photographer, or if it's some Macbook or laptop carrying guy's stelfie.

Selfie Control 

The act of controlling ones impulse to take a picture of themself.
Guy 1: Man you almost got hit by a car trying to take that selfie, you need to have some selfie control.

Guy 2: Yeah, but I looked good though.

morning selfie

The moment you wake up, you grab your phone and take a picture of yourself while still in bed.

The rule is you are not allowed to fix your hair, put on make-up, turn on the lights, or even remove the crusty stuff from your eyes. The first thing you will see will be the flash from the camera. Then you post the picture to social media.
Jane: Is that what you looked like when you woke up?

Tom: Yes. It was my morning selfie. It is the new trend, but not everyone has the guts to do it.
