I need some creative help from my forum friends. I am terrible at thinking of photograph ideas and the whole editing thing. Please help - have a look at my profile and make some suggestions for the kinds of pictures you like to see on an appealing profile.
For the last two years I haven’t really cared but I promised myself I would from now on. I’ll take them over the next couple of weeks while off work.
PS if some of the suggestions could be serious that would be appreciated
TIA |

Again not your target audience
However
Lack of just gentials
Lack of comparing it to a can of monster
Lack of toilets in shot
Lack of a crack den x serial killer vibe
So you are already doing better than half the male profiles ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

What are you into? Any distinct quirks or traits you could incorporate?
I took some with my houseplants and pumpkins because I like growing shit. They’re probably terrible but I had fun taking them at least 😅 |

Put an outfit on that makes you feel good. Sit, stand, bend yourself in a pose that makes you feel good, take the picture.
Sometimes simple is best.
Lightroom is a good app for editing and easy to use. |

Thanks Effy, I’ll have a look at Lightroom.
And thanks to everyone else so far 😊 |

I'm not sure any of the fab girls are your target market?! However, nice suit photos, or good jeans with nice shirts always make good pics
Use the selfie screen on your phone and the timer function - take a few different angles -think about the background and crop out any of the crap if necessary.
Fun photos with a hint of personality are always good

I don’t have any suggestions. But when I think about my own pictures I try to think about what I enjoy seeing on others’ profiles and also what look I’m going for with my pictures and who I’m trying to attract. Not helpful at all, sorry! |

OP, you say "I enjoy coffee shops, walks, reading, music and talking bollocks in the forums".. Why not snap a few rinsing a late, a b&w with some phones on and a book, maybe perch ya phone on a wall and have one in your bobble hat and boots?
From total profile tips at me dot come ![](/icons/s/eek.gif) |

Go check out 'sarahugenphotography' on !nstagram. Very helpful (look at her reels for tips) 😉
...and if by chance she's here; Love your work Sarah, hope you don't mind a shameless plug from a fan! 🤣🤣

Mostly - be comfortable. It will come across if you’re not!
Suit pictures always go down well. Or shirt and jeans.
I don’t think I’m alone in liking photos of things like undoing a shirt, belt or tie.
Well taken shower shots are always good too.
Photos from daily life work well too (cropped if needed) like a running photo. Maybe a before… 😂

I think your main profile photo (Avatar) does you no justice at all as it only looks like a red splotch- or maybe ai am just blind.
Your other photos are pretty good- like other peeps have said, a nice suit photo(s) would be great. You seem to have the physique to wear one well. ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |
