Photo Holding a Drink.

Fine in moderation. Reads alcoholic if used twice. Add a few selfies once and get a version that works in about 60 seconds. Want it moving? One more click.

Why this shot works

A photo with a drink is a casual, social signal. Drinks at a wedding, a glass of wine at dinner, a beer at a barbecue. One per profile is normal. Two or more starts to read as 'drinking is the personality,' which most viewers screen against.

Questions

Should I use a photo holding a drink on my profile?

Fine in moderation. Reads alcoholic if used twice. A photo with a drink is a casual, social signal. Drinks at a wedding, a glass of wine at dinner, a beer at a barbecue. One per profile is normal. Two or more starts to read as 'drinking is the personality,' which most viewers screen against.

Where should a photo holding a drink go in my profile?

A photo holding a drink works best at photo 2. Lead with a clear, well-lit shot of your face.

When does a photo holding a drink hurt?

Multiple drink photos in the same set. Heavy drinking visible (double fisting, shots). Bar selfies that center the bottle.

What should I avoid in a photo holding a drink?

Bar shots that center the alcohol. Multiple-drink-photo profiles.

Will it still look like me?

Yes. Your face, skin and build stay yours. Magnt changes the light and the place, not the person.

How long does it take?

About 60 seconds for a photo. Videos take a few minutes.

Can it talk in the video?

Yes. Type a line and you say it to the camera, in a 5 or 10 second clip.

What if I don’t love the result?

Change one line in the prompt and try again, or ask for a variation. Keep only the ones you like.

Your photo holding a drink is ready when you are.

A few selfies in. A better photo out. Then make it move.
