Wedding Photo

Suit/dress photos work; bride-and-groom-adjacent photos don't.

A wedding photo works when it shows you well-dressed in a clear social context. It fails when it includes the actual bride and groom, because viewers register 'whose wedding is this' before they register your face. Crop tight; remove other identifiable people.

When it works

  • You in a suit/dress at a clearly-formal event
  • Other guests blurred or out of frame
  • Position 2 or 3

When it fails

  • Bride or groom prominently visible — confusing
  • You in a wedding party with similarly-dressed people — blends in

Do this

  • Crop tight on you
  • Use as your one 'I clean up nicely' photo

Avoid

  • ×Photos that include the bride/groom
  • ×Wedding party group lineups

Best position

Position 2

Use this photo type at position 2 of your profile. Photos in the wrong slot underperform even when the photo itself is good.
