Here is the thing! Whether we like or not, first impressions really matter when it comes to visibility and online dating profile pictures.
A professional photo session and photos can be a great investment. After all, a professional lifestyle portrait photographer with an expensive camera and years of experience will know how to capture your personality, convey your story and bring out your best qualities.
But there’s a catch!
You really don’t want pro photos that do not look like you as they are too posed, stylised, fake and unnatural. You do not want to look like a model. It’ll make you seem vain.
You really do not want photos that looks like they have been taken during one photo session.
You really don’t want photos that looks like you have specially hired a photographer for it.
You should aim to create pro quality photos with a photographer which are authentic, casual looking yet fun. I would love to help you with it.
Here are my top 7 tips to improve your dating profile picture (by female portrait photographer).
