A selfie refers to a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone and uploaded to a social media website.

A selfie is usually accompanied by a kissy face or the individual looking in a direction that is not towards the camera.

Example: After the Oxford Dictionaries recently named "selfie" the word of the year, the "world's first selfie" has been found.
