Raise your score
How to get a higher score on your dating photos
The same few things lift almost every photo. Check these before you retake one.
Face the light
Daylight from a window, or outdoors in open shade, beats any lamp. Light from above or behind you puts shadows on your face and lowers the score fastest.
Step back from the camera
Arm-length selfies distort your face. Have a friend take it from two or three steps away, or use a timer, so your shoulders and some of the setting show.
Just you in the first photo
Group photos, sunglasses and hats make people work to find you. Save them for later photos and lead with a clear photo of only you.
A background that says something
A messy room pulls attention away from you. A plain wall works; a street, a park or a cafe works better because it also tells a match something about you.
FAQ
Photo rater questions
How does the photo rater score my picture?
It looks at the photo the way someone swiping would: how well your face is lit, how the photo is framed, your expression, the background and your overall style. Each check gets a score and a note, and together they make the score out of 100, with the fixes that would raise it.
Does the score say how attractive I am?
No. It rates the photo, not you. The same person can score 40 with a dark, cluttered selfie and 80 with a well-lit photo taken from a few steps away. That is why the fixes are about light, framing and setting, not your looks.
Is my photo stored?
No. Your photo is checked and not stored. You do not need an account, and nothing is added to a profile or shared.
Can I use it as a pfp tester for other sites?
Yes. The checks work for any profile picture: Instagram, LinkedIn, WhatsApp or a dating app. The notes are tuned for dating photos, so a few may not apply to a work headshot.
What if all my photos score low?
Start with the fixes: better light and a step back from the camera help most. If you do not have good photos to work with, DatingProfile can make new ones from one selfie, in settings like travel, dinner or outdoors. That part is paid, from $29 one-time.
