Yes there are many guides out there and most say "professionally taken pics", yes, yet... How?

I do have a few professionally looking pics on FB, and funny enough a girl didn't wanna meet anymore after connecting on FB saying my pics "posing" were terrible (here is the actualy feedback :) http://screencast.com/t/GM5WMyifd9R ).

Professionally taken pics are usually the ones "posing", so it got me wondering.

No suits, less "model looking" poses and more natural ones.. ?
Anyone out there with a rocking profile who cares to share some well working pics he's got . ? :)

Lux,

Keep in mind that this is just one girl. Has anyone else been turned off as soon as they saw your FB? If not, you might need more reference points.

Also, there are a lot of different professional shots you can take.
Ex.
https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/73 ... bde30c.jpg

That guy is clearly "posing". He looks like he's going out of his way to look sexy in that picture. I could understand why that might be a turnoff for some women.

Whereas this guy http://ris.fashion.telegraph.co.uk/Rich ... 24854a.jpg looks far more natural.
Both those types of pictures are seen in professional photography. There's no reason why you couldn't have a picture like the second one if you had your photos done professionally.

Personally, I had a profile pic on Tinder for a very long time which was very obviously posing. Like, it didn't look all that natural at all. And I netted pretty good results. So like I said before, I'm more inclined to think it was just this one girl who thought you looked douchey. If it happens a lot, than there's probably something you're communicating via the content of the photos themselves.

Ex. If they're all you in a bunch of suits trying to look sexy, you might come off as too tryhard or something.

Edit: How do I post Pictures off my computer on this site?
