The person who takes a selfie will be the first owner of copyright in it. For the purpose of establishing ownership of copyright in a photograph, it does not matter who owns the device that was used to take the selfie.

Did you know it is almost certain that the term selfie originates from Australia where a drunk youngster first used the word to describe a self-portrait made a decade ago?
