I am going to try to make a Tinder profile again, I have done this many times but don't know what to do or have the experience to set up my profile in a way that will make it successful. It all starts with the pictures, the only pictures I can take right now are selfies. My friends wouldn't want to take pictures of me, they would but asking them to help me get pictures for a profile would be like pulling teeth I feel. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can set up a solid profile with the limited resources I have?

damn bro. If your friends are unwilling to take photos of you then their not actually your friends. I can't imagine even my acquaintances giving me shit over that.
Also you can ask your mom or any random girl you know. but the best option would be to just get a pro photoshoot

How many pro photoshoots should I get? And I have no good pictures so I'd be starting from scratch and they'd be all winter pics is that ok for a profile?

just one pro photoshoot should be enough if it's with a really good pro photographer. The fact that it's all winter pics shouldn't matter so i wouldn't worry about that

Start with 1. Look at their catalog; I'd go for portrait photographers that take pics with a magazine model vibe - not a wedding/family photographer vibe. Tell them your profile is for dating and you want a fun vibe - not a linkedin vibe.

I feels like work for them, also usually it helps if you take pictures for them, either way photos can come out trash if you push friends to take photos of you who are not interested

the simple solution is just to offer a photo trade. But if someone is really your friend then they should wanna help you get a good photo, this is like the lowest level of favors

I hear ya there, I don't want them taking a picture because they feel obligated to. Do you get some good pictures with your tripod setup?
