1. Wedding Photos
That’s right, wedding photos. But, I don’t mean the kind where you’re standing at the altar (although I’ve seen 1 successful profile do this… 😬 not a maneuver for beginners). I mean you at someone else’s wedding. Wedding photos are THE KING of mens online dating photos. Think about it, you’re looking damn good in your suit and tie, attending a luxurious event. You have friends and family all around you making you look charming and popular. Use a wedding photo in your profile and you will look SO good. Make them believe you can look as good as James Bond ALL the time.
Women love weddings. Weddings were invented for women, and woman take painstaking care that every detail of their wedding day is perfect. Weddings are the modern equivalent of a fairytale. Do yourself a favor and insert yourself into one of these fairytale photos. Wedding photos hit 4 out of the 8 most important qualities that men need to succeed at online dating. All in one photo! Women fantasize about their wedding day. Show yourself off in a wedding photo, because they should be fantasizing about you, you handsome devil.
2. Outdoor Photos
Pop quiz. What’s the difference between you and this guy^?
Answer: He’s outside, and women love him 🔥🔥.
Photos outdoors are incredible for your profile because they combine beauty, and adventure. I’m making it your job to put this little guy^^ to shame and go get yourself some eventful outdoor photos. Some of the most incredible views and photos you take will be of you in the great outdoors. Look at the possibilities:
These guys are showing off their exciting and adventurous lives, wouldn’t you love to join them? And it’s okay that they’re slightly obscured. They’re showing off their cool lives, they don’t have to always show their face.
3. Friends / Party Photos
“Mr. Djinn, I wish to make women think I am cool and that people love being around me”. What should I do?
“Sir dating acolyte, your wish will be granted.”
POOF! Your phone disappears in a puff of smoke, and reappears with photo after photo where you’re having an amazing time with your friends at your last New Years party. Upon closer inspection you notice that in every photo, not only are you the centerpiece of each photo, but that you are also slightly taller and better looking than all your friends. You’re giving off the mystical “main character” energy. Millions of men have wished this same exact wish, let’s take a look at their results.
Don’t you wish you were there with them?!?!?! I do. I wish I could be at all 5 parties at once, right now. Notice how each of these photos has a “main character”. You want to be THAT GUY. You DO NOT want women looking at your friend and thinking “I wish I could date him instead”. The two photos with sunglasses would be better off without them, but that’s unimportant. Each of these guys looks likable and fun. When you pick your friend group photo, make sure you are the main character, and that you’re either taller or better looking than your friends. The example photos skew younger, but any event or gathering will work.
4. Photos with Parents and Family
Your next task is to get a photo with your parents or family. Why would showing your parents be excellent you might ask? Because so far within this dating profile template we’ve demonstrated that you’re exciting, popular, attractive, and charming, but now we’re further emphasizing the charming relationship aspects of your profile. That you love your parents and family. Women find that stuff cute and relatable, after all, they have parents too. Seeing that you’re close with family is a green flag. This is your chance to show your softer side, and that you love your parents or siblings. Find a photo where you look good and shows family closeness. It can be a casual event, but it shows that you’re a part of something.
5. Photos with Your Pets
The most popular category in the cultural zeitgeist, a photo with your dog or cat. This is NOT a photo of your dog or cat, this is a photo of you WITH your dog or cat. Your pets are cute, but they DO NOT deserve a slot in your profile all to themselves. Any guy can put up a photo of an animal, but only YOU can put up a cute photo where your pet shows how much they love you. Our goal isn’t to prove you have a cute dog or cat, it’s to prove that YOU’RE cute, by stealing some of your pet’s mojo. Let’s do a side by side.
Pet owners vs solo pets
See the difference? Your pets are just as cute, but now, their happiness and cuteness rubs off on you. Your pets need to look happy when they’re with you, otherwise this won’t work.
6. Showing off a Talent
By now the ladies have seen that you’re charming, fancy, attractive, adventurous, exciting, a tad athletic, and popular. What’s the final component to your dating profile template? Talent. This is where you really twist the knife and drive home that you’re unique, and that not every guy can “YOUR TALENT HERE”. The best talents are easy to appreciate by an observer.
A Tier Profile Talents: All musical abilities, dancing, athletics, artistry, craftsmanship, acting or theater, public speaking, cooking.
But fear not if you don’t see your talent above. Because there’s an easy way to show your talent, and that’s by having your environment support your talent. Let’s take an easy example. Are you good at playing guitar? It would be even better if you were playing guitar on stage. Super athletic? Show yourself participating within a sports event. One of my client’s specialities is astronomy, and he was struggling to show his talent. Listen to me closely. If you can’t easily show yourself performing the talent, show the results of your efforts instead. We dug into his phone, and he had some excellent astronomy photos.
Some more example photos:
Put a small caption on your photo telling the photo’s story. The women that resonate with your hobbies will swipe right that much faster.
You won an award for writing? Put up the photo of you winning the award. I won an award for an invention ideas contest once and use it in my profile, to this day it is my best performing dating photo. Women find it interesting, I’m dressed up and I look good.
