If you’re going to be using dating apps or other online dating services, it’s essential to have a great set of photos. A few car selfies will not cut it. You need a mix of shots to show you’re active, interesting and sexy. One good option is to work with a photographer who specializes in Austin online dating photography.

However, there are very few photographers who specialize in this niche and the ones that do often have little experience or only do it part time. They tend to shoot photos that look like modeling headshots – overly softened, staged and a bit narcissistic. The best photos for dating profiles are natural, in the moment and effortless.

A former owner of a local modeling agency has launched a new service that helps singles in the Austin area glam up their online dating profiles. Perfect Profile offers photo packages that can be customized for each client, and the company’s founder says it will work with clients to ensure their personality shines through in their photos.

Perfect Profile has a range of pricing options for dating portraits. Interested parties can purchase the packages a la carte or bundle them.

Besides photography services, Perfect Profile also offers dating consulting. The consultant can help with swiping etiquette, timing, app choice, first messages, photo order, filters, facial expressions, wardrobe styling and more. He can also provide guidance on places to meet singles, communication skills, identifying red flags and weeding out liars and time-wasters. He also provides coaching for specific populations such as POC, short guys and introverts. Austin online dating photography
