Why this shot works

A professional photoshoot for dating profiles produces consistent quality. The risk is using only professional photos. Which makes the profile look staged and triggers viewer skepticism. Mix one or two professional shots with phone-camera candids for the best result.

01

1-2 professional shots, 4-5 candid/casual

02

Hire a photographer who's done dating profiles, not weddings or corporate

03

Mixed in with non-professional shots

04

Photographer specifically trained on dating profile photos

Three steps. No photographer.
