Mastering Your Dating Profile: Tips and Tinder Photoshoot Preparation Guide with a Copenhagen Tinder Photographer

Having appealing photos on Tinder is crucial because they are the first thing potential matches see and often determine whether they will swipe right or left. High-quality and attractive photos can make a strong first impression, showcasing your personality, interests, and lifestyle. They help to convey confidence, approachability, and authenticity, which are all qualities that people look for in a potential match. Ultimately, having great Tinder photos increases your chances of making meaningful connections and finding matches who are genuinely interested in getting to know you.

With so many dating apps like Tinder, Bumble, OKCupid, Grindr, Match.com, Hinge, and others, knowing how to take a good photo for your profile is super important. But even though these apps have been around for a while, a lot of people still mess up their chances of finding love – whether it's for a long-term relationship or just a fun night out – by posting bad pictures. We have had the pleasure, of working with so many clients who are interested in our Tinder Photoshoot Packages. Here's what one client said after using our Tinder Photoshoot Package:

"I have started with Tinder this week and used our photos. I´m so thankful for your good work. The pictures are totally super and they show a lot of facets of me. You got me right through your lenses and I can warmly recommend you!" Inke

Remember that you can also use the images to showcase your determination or changing events in your life. For example, if you start building your body, you can use the images for Tinder and social media as well.


This is what Gleb had to say about his experience with us:

"A big thank you to Bigwig and Nertila! Great photoshoot experience and great results with amazing photos! Nertila is a professional and very easy to work with, she knows how to choose a good location, select the colors, find the right background and angles, and especially help with the right posture and mimicry. And after all this great experience I received an outstanding result of having a lot of great pictures and some of them you can find enclosed. I fully recommend Bigwig if you are looking for having amazing shooting experience and amazing photos that you will enjoy the whole life!" Gleb Vasilevskij



Here are some tips you should know before mastering your Dating App Photos:


  1. Avoid using old photos: Be honest and genuine by using current photos that accurately represent how you look. Using outdated photos can lead to disappointment and mistrust from potential matches.

  2. Avoid group shots: Standing out is crucial, so skip the crowd and focus on showcasing yourself. Group photos make it hard for potential matches to identify you and might distract from your profile.

  3. Be mindful of who appears in your photos: Avoid confusion by not including photos of people who could be mistaken for your partner or child. Focus on showcasing yourself clearly.

  4. Consider your intentions: Tailor your photos to match your dating intentions, whether you're looking for a casual encounter or a long-term relationship. Use subtle cues in your photos to convey your desires.

  5. Headshots and full body shots: Your dating profile's first impression is crucial, so choose a professional headshot over a selfie. Hire a photographer to take a high-quality photo that can be used on social platforms like LinkedIn and Instagram. Show your style with a recent full-body photo, giving potential matches a clear view of your physique and authenticity

  6. Lifestyle shot: Inject personality into your profile with a lifestyle photo reflecting your interests and passions. Whether it's pursuing hobbies or exploring new destinations, this photo offers a glimpse into your everyday life, making you more relatable and appealing.


Some of my clients go also to a Dating Expert before coming to me, they don't realize how important is to have a photographer to show their best self. Dating Experts delve into the finer details of optimizing dating profiles, it's amazing to note that 99% of them recommend the assistance of a photographer.


Here are some tips on how to prepare for your Tinder Photoshoot:


  1. Wardrobe selection: Bring outfits that represent your style and personality. Choose clothing that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Make sure that you bring the outfits of the package you have chosen together with your photographer. Discuss outfits with your photographer, send them your outfits through WhatsApp, and we will give our best suggestions. (Make sure you pack them easily in a backpack, don't bring few backpacks or huge luggage)

  2. Accessories: Don't forget to bring accessories such as hats, sunglasses, jewelry, or scarves to add interest to your photos.

  3. Grooming essentials: Make sure your hair is styled the way you like it, and consider bringing grooming essentials like a comb, hair gel, or makeup for touch-ups.

  4. Props: Bring along props that showcase your hobbies or interests, whether it's a musical instrument, sports equipment, or a book.

  5. Positive attitude: Come to the photoshoot with a positive attitude and be open to trying different poses and expressions. A relaxed and confident demeanor will shine through in your photos.

  6. Communication: Communicate with your photographer about the kind of shots you're looking for and any specific ideas you have in mind. Collaboration is key to getting the best results.

  7. Relaxation techniques: If you're feeling nervous, practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or visualization to help calm your nerves and feel more comfortable in front of the camera.
