Photo feedback for client

2 posts (+1) · 6 comments (+0)

I took some lifestyle portraits of a client and I'm curious which you think are best for online dating. Some of Alex's criteria:

Activity shots preferably
Not posed/try to be candid
Good lighting and angles (at least the subject should be exposed properly and not shoot from a downward angle)
Image quality
Generally don't look into lens (although there are exceptions; one of Alex's pics which he uses a lot where he's sitting on a ledge, he has eye contact with camera)
Photos should be contextually congruent, e.g. don't wear a 3 piece suit in the middle of a forest

Any feedback in terms of how to improve this style of photography for online dating is appreciated. FYI these are all 1x1 cropping which is compatible with most apps.

1 2 3 6 10 are great and this guy would get good results with them.
Dont know if i prefer 1 or 2. 1 looks more natural + he looks taller as its taken from a lower angle but 2 is just a great face shot and also looks pretty natural
Only one i dont like is 8, i get what u were going for but realistically nobody stands like that and it just looks posed.. still better then what 80% of guys have on their tinder tho

Thanks. I just realized in 8 that his elbow isn't actually resting on the barricade which makes it look extra unnatural, haha. Got it.

Also, if anyone is in the SF bay area and needs pictures, feel free to DM me.

Most of these look quite posed unfortunately. Take a look at my IG for examples I use @siralexz
