What photos you should upload to your dating profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to setting up a dating profile, you should always have three types of photos of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. A close-up of your face –<\/strong> This allows potential daters to see your facial features, the colour of your eyes, and your beautiful smile. We recommend a friendly smile, either with or without teeth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. A full body photo – <\/strong>This shows daters what kind of body you have and shows off your unique personal style. Wear a nice, flattering outfit. Stand with confidence and give your best smile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. A fun photo – <\/strong>This photo could include one of your pets, or maybe a hobby or sport you enjoy doing. Give the potential daters an idea of what you\u2019re all about and where your interests lay, without having to say it in words.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Lighting is everything<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Make sure you have good lighting when you take your photos. Good lighting is not only extremely flattering but lighting determines not only brightness and darkness, but also tone, mood, and atmosphere<\/a>. Ring lights are great for lighting if you have one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"sugar<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Filters – to use or not to use?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Filters are a big NO when it comes to your dating profile. Not only does it make it difficult to distinguish your face and features, but it\u2019s also not the time or the place to be using filters. Filters can lead to massive disappointment when meeting the person in real life and noticing they don\u2019t look anything like their photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Overall, the best advice one can give for dating profile photos is to be yourself, smile, be honest and boast your best features. After all, relationships are not all about looks, but largely about personality, morals and behaviour patterns. Good luck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
