Verdict about taking pictures for Online Dating (Tinder Pics)<\/p>\n

What makes a great online dating photo (or Tinder pic)?<\/h2>\n

If you thought that being good-looking did the trick, you’re not wrong.<\/p>\n

But you’re also not right.<\/p>\n

Great pictures include how you look, yes, but also how you pose, how you stand, where you take the photo, the light, the surroundings, what you were, and even if you were groomed that day.<\/p>\n

Let’s see them one by one.<\/p>\n

\"tinder_taking_pics\"<\/span>We will focus on guys here because girls are generally superb at this, while guys need a more significant push.<\/p>\n

Posing the face + Facial tips<\/h3>\n

First, you need to learn how your body looks, behaves, and what looks best, especially for your face.<\/p>\n

So spend some time in front of the mirror and look at your face from different angles. Figure out which ones make you look better and which ones you should avoid no matter what.<\/p>\n

Here are some tips for posing your face:<\/p>\n

Posing your body + Body tips<\/h3>\n

Posing the Hands<\/h3>\n

Your hands are pretty important when taking pictures. They can also make you uncomfortable. So here you get some quick tips on how to handle them.<\/p>\n

Posing with your legs<\/h3>\n

When it comes to your legs you can do different things. Try several options to give variety to your photoshoot. Here are some ideas:<\/p>\n

Show a smile<\/h3>\n

This is semi-controversial because OkCupid once published a potentially fake article where they claimed that not smiling was better (The article was from 1938, so we’ll forgive them).<\/p>\n

Smiles work if they are genuine.<\/p>\n

If you are not the smiling type, you can approach this in two different ways:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You don’t smile at all.<\/li>\n
  2. You start pretending until the gesture becomes natural, at least for the photos.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Hovalo tip:<\/span><\/strong> We don’t notice it consciously, but the brain knows that a smile is genuine by the wrinkles around the eyes and the instant change in looks. That’s why it’s said that “a smile is the best makeup”.<\/p>\n

    Here’s a video about it in case you don’t believe me:<\/p>\n

    Pulling off the no-smile photo<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    You might’ve seen dozens of pictures where people don’t smile that are great. <\/span><\/p>\n

    The trick? You need to pull it off. <\/span><\/p>\n

    Some people are naturally inclined to smile, while others don’t. It’s just a matter of practicing which pose is better for your features and personality.<\/span><\/p>\n

    To see if this works out, get your photo evaluated by girls or use <\/span>Photofeeler<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Blinking \/ Winking<\/span><\/h3>\n

    Avoid at all costs to end with pictures where you closed your eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you are sensitive to lights, weather, or are very tired, try to get your pictures under different conditions that help keep your eyes open.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Winking isn’t recommended, but you can still make a good shot with practice in front of the mirror to make sure it looks well.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Pro Tip:<\/span><\/strong> Before taking the photo, close your eyes. When opening them do this slowly. Then you are ready for your shot!<\/p>\n

    Why it’s more okay for guys to catfish but girls do it more often?<\/h2>\n

    I\u2019m going to be a bit controversial here but bear with me.<\/p>\n

    I know many couples that wouldn’t match online since the girl would focus too much on the looks.<\/p>\n

    We guys are primitive. Our focus is still mostly on the looks of the girl. <\/p>\n

    It is only the appearance? Not for a high quality guy like myself. My girl needs to look good and be smart…<\/p>\n

    But the baseline is there. She needs to have some looks.<\/p>\n

    What makes guys attractive is only 30% looks. The things that matter are:<\/p>\n
