Hi lads,
I have kind of an issue here. I recently made professional pics but still get 0 matches (it got even worse than with my old normal pics). Am I missing something or are the pics that bad? Advice is much appreciated
I recently went out for a few beers and asked random chicks how they liked my pics. Many of them gave me compliments but there was one girl that said that they all look like shit. She said to me that she is a photographer herself and my pics come across as posed pictures and give a millienial vibe (whatever this means). So said the pics should look like they were mad in the moment. Within random situations that happen through the day but posed is not good and from what I heard between the lines of what she said "like needy or desperate". And I think I understand the point she made. When I scroll through pics of dudes or even girls and I see they are posed or staged, it looks for me like "wannabe influencer" or loser because this person is following the trend and is seeking validation, instead of doing its own shit. Either I will switch to normal pics again, maybe just get normal pics that happen "in the moment" while getting a coffee or doing some shit through the day, or get back to the roots and approach chicks through the day
this girl is correct. an easier way to explain is you want pics that look natural. Like you were doing a cool activity and one of your friends took a pic w/ no prep. A good pro photographer will be able to do this without issue. The problem is most photographers suck when it comes to dating pics so in summary, you just need a better photographer.
