iPad Shutter button next to camera lens

[YMark]

Sorry for the newb question. I just bought my wife a new iPad and can't figure out this camera. The front camera is on the right hand side when holding the iPad in portrait position. If you want to take a selfie in this position, the shutter button is also on the right hand side. So when you go to tap the shutter button, your finger is in the way of the lens.

Hopefully someone on this forum can tell be the trick on either how to move the shutter button, or what the trick is to taking a picture without my finger being in the way. Is using the front camera in landscape the only solution?

Thanks

If the iPad is not connected via USB-C simply turn it by 180°. So the front facing camera is on the left.
It has speakers on top and on the bottom so it should make no difference in regard to audio.
Or, keep its orientation as is and use any of the two volume buttons as shutter instead of the software button.

EDIT: Here's a workaround for an additional 'shutter' button that can be placed anywhere on the display:
In 'Shortcuts.app' create two automations:

When:Automation > Create Personal Automation > App > Camera > 'Is Opened'
Do: Set > Turn AssistiveTouch 'On'
Disable Ask Before Running
and
When:Automation > Create Personal Automation > App > Camera > 'Is Closed'
Do: Set > Turn AssistiveTouch 'Off'
Disable Ask Before Running

Then create a Shortcut named 'Take Front Photo':

And link that Shortcut with tapping the AssistiveTouch button once:
Settings > Accessibility > Tap > AssistiveTouch > Tap Once > 'Take Front Photo'

Now every time you open the 'Camera.app' an additional icon appears that you can move around and tap once to take a photo with the front facing camera.
