Photo 2: The Close Up/ Head Shot

Again, if a guy can’t see your face he’ll assume the worst.

Wear a color close to your face that goes well with your skin tone (nothing that washes you out.)

Keep makeup to a natural and fresh look (sometimes it takes a lot of makeup to attain a fresh look- but don’t overdo it.)

A “close shot” creates a feeling of intimacy and “being in your space.”

Close Up Pose Options

Straight At The Camera…

• Can be intense or inviting (or both.)
• Creates a feeling of “knowing you.”
• “Eyes are the windows to the soul.” What does your soul say?

Looking Off Camera

• Fun. Flirty. A bit coy. (Flirty without flirting with HIM.)
• Creates curiosity.

Careful with the “Bedroom Eyes”…

• Sends a jolt directly to his…
• Same with the pursed lips. Too sexy.
• Remember: A little sexy goes a LONG way in a guy’s imagination.

The “Magnetic” Smile

• Unless you’re a Goth looking for Goths, you want to look HAPPYand FUN in your profile pics.
• A great profile smile is a confident, content and happy profile smile… with a little bit of mystery behind the eyes.
• Think about your proudest, happiest moment and your face will automatically form into a great smile. Don’t try to control your muscles, just think of your best moment.

Take a bunch of shots. Have fun. Tell jokes. Even if it takes 50 bad shots to get a good one… you’ve still got a good one!
