Portland Dating Profile Photographer
Photos That Actually Get You Results
A picture is worth a thousand words. This is even more true on dating apps! Most guys lose potential dates without saying a word, because their photos don’t do them justice. Ditch the fish pics and showcase your personality with natural, confident portraits built for Hinge, Bumble and Tinder.
Not only am I a Portland dating profile photographer, I’ve seen hundreds of men’s local dating profiles and am better positioned to help you get photos that increase your chances of getting matches!
Photos are your photos are your first impression – and sometimes your only one.
On dating apps, you have less than a second to make someone want to swipe right. That split-second decision is made almost entirely based on your photos.
Most men on Hinge, Bumble, and Tinder are using blurry selfies, group shots where it’s unclear who they are, or stiff, overly corporate headshots. As a woman who’s spent hours on the dating apps, I’ve seen everything from boring photos (car selfies with sunglasses) to outright offensive photos (you don’t want to know). Your profile can be screened out with poor photo choices before a word is even read!
Most men don’t have great photos of themselves. You can change all that with an on-location photo session that can capture your most confident and fun version – exactly what women want to see on the dats.
As a professional dating profile photographer based in Portland, Oregon, I specialize in creating photos that help you to stand out from the mass of bathroom selfies and gym photos. Put your best foot forward with a session focused on capturing your best self!
The Portland Dating App Photography Experience
Each session is customized with you as the client in mind!
Once your session is booked, we’ll set up a time to connect and review your outfit choices. You can bring up to 3 outfits for your session.
We choose a Portland location for your session! Northwest locations are included in the fee, but I can travel to other areas of Portland for a travel fee.
I typically photograph two hours before sunset, for about an hour. You can relax, I will guide you during your session to make it a fun experience and help you to get confident, authentic photos!

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear to my session?
I’d recommend wearing what you’d wear to a first date! Simple, well-fitting and wrinkle-free clothes look best. I can help with outfit selection prior to the session!
Do I need to know how to pose?
Absolutely not! I will help to guide the entire session and even make it fun for you! Most of my client tell me how natural they felt and how quickly the session flew by!
How is this different than headshots?
Headshots are designed for professional contexts like LinkedIn. Dating profile photography is a completely different. Women don’t want to see how men interact in a professional environment – they want to see how fun, relaxed and confident you would be on a date. With over ten years of photography experiece, I can help to bring out your personality and authentic self for your dating profile pics.
How quickly will I see results on the apps?
Results vary, especially given the many factors that go into matching. Great photos are one part of what can help you to better connect with women. My Profile Pro package includes a profile review from a woman’s perspective, which will increase your chances of connecting with quality women.
Where in Portland do you shoot?
I’m based in Northwest Portland and find city backdrops work very well for dating apps. I’m happy to travel within the city proper and have location recommendations.
