Flexbox - Aligning item 1 to be on top and item 2 and 3 to be on the bottom side by side

I'm trying to align a header to be centred at the top and an image and paragraph to be beneath the header side by side. So Item one is at the top, Item 2 is bottom left and Item 3 is bottom right.

Here's the code I have so far..

.owner-pic {
    display: flex;
    flex-flow: column wrap;
}

section .owner-pic h2 {
    align-self: center;
    margin-bottom: 5px;
}

section .owner-pic img {
    border-radius: 100%;
    max-height: 200px;
    max-width: 200px;
    align-self: flex-start;

}

section .owner-pic p {;
    align-self: flex-end;
    flex-grow: 2;
}

I'm guessing a bit since I didn't see the HTML that goes with it, but here's a few ideas:

  • Use row instead of column as your direction
  • add flex: 1 100%; to the selector for the h2
  • substitute text-align for align-self in the h2
  • add flex: 1; to the image
  • change flex-grow to flex in the paragraph

That should get you close.
