Why Your Tinder Photos are Bad Quality / Blurry

NSFW: This article contains nude pics. Everyone here is 18+. I have permission to upload these photos. Happy to remove pics/stories – contact me.

If you’ve found my site recently through Google, it’s probably because you’ve downloaded Tinder, uploaded some photos and immediately noticed Tinder has lowered the image quality, made your photos look a little blurry, added a “grainy” look to them – in short, they look shit.

Why? Partly it’s because Tinder overly-compresses the hell out of your images, massively lowering the quality. There’s no way to get around this; it happens to ALL of us, myself included. This will be a million times worse if you’re already using low-quality, or small-resolution photos to begin with.

What you CAN do is take the best quality photos possible, so the Tinder compression doesn’t have as much of an impact on your pics. 99% of guys I see complaining about blurry/bad Tinder photo quality just have crappy photos to begin with – small resolution, terrible lighting, using an old crappy smartphone, etc. Let’s fix those issues now.

Why should you listen to me?

Because I’ve gotten laid 100+ times on Tinder including countless 3somes and a recent MFFF 4some (proof here, including pics and vids).

I’ve spent years getting good at Tinder/online dating, and if there’s one thing I know, it’s how to take Tinder photos that’ll get you laid. I’ve been a professional photographer for about 8 years, so photos are my forte. Here’s the Tinder photos I’m using right now:

These photos get me laid with almost no effort; there’s a clear sexual tone (I literally have BDSM photos in my profile), and I tell every girl I meet up with I’m after something sexual. I don’t even need to have dates any more – just grab a bottle of wine, take it back to my place and have a wild night of debauchery.

Here’s more information about what I put in my bio, what I message girls, how I organise dates, how I have sex on every first date, etc:

• My Current Tinder Profile (including BDSM)

So trust me when I tell you: Using a proper DSLR camera is mandatory for getting laid/finding a girlfriend on Tinder – it elevates your photos above the competition. Stop screwing around with shitty smartphone selfies and use a proper camera – buy, or borrow, a DSLR. I’ve made it easy for you – I’ve got a guide on which camera to buy here (this is the exact camera I bought):

• DSLR Quick Buying Guide – the Best Camera for Tinder

And I’ve got an in-depth guide on how to use the camera to take killer dating photos here:

• Complete Guide to Taking Amazing Photos that’ll Get You Laid

Here’s a massive list of mistakes guys make with their Tinder photos – and how to fix them:

• Why Your Tinder Pictures Suck (And How to Fix Them)

Once you’ve got a solid DSLR camera (or borrowed one from a mate), it’s time to start taking the actual photos. I’ve got you covered there too; here’s my free, in-depth guide to taking photos and getting laid on Tinder:

I also cover messaging girls, what to talk about, how to set up a date, how to make a move on the date, whether or not you should talk about sex, how to invite her back to your place, how to escalate, how to have killer foreplay and mind-blowing sex, how to make her orgasm, and even how to keep seeing her for months/years afterwards (retention). If you want the short version:

• Improve your looks (lose fat, dress a little better, hit the gym, get a solid haircut, whiten your teeth). I started from zero (read my story here) so if I can do it, you sure as hell can too.
• Take decent photos (just take lots of photos, keep practicing, and eventually you’ll improve over time).
• Message as many girls as you possibly can with a copy-paste template so you’re not wasting time.
• Ask those girls out for a drink in 5 messages or less. (Don’t waste time with long conversations).
• On the date, spend 1-2hrs getting to know each other, then invite her back to your place.
• If she says no, try again on the 2nd date.
• If she says no, try again on the 3rd date.

See? Not rocket science. Go read my Tinder guide – it’s written so that even a total newbie can follow it and get laid – even if you’re currently a virgin.

UPDATE 2024: Grab a copy of my Get Laid in 6 Weeks – Even If You’re a Virgin guide. Cam and I wrote it together – we laid out literally every single step from where to meet women (online dating, cold approach, social circle, night game – we cover it ALL), how to text, what to do on dates, how to escalate, how to kiss, how to have great foreplay and wild sex (including if you have performance anxiety/nerves), and so much more. It’s all laid out for you – it’s yours for just $1. You have no excuses.

This is the exact process I’ve used to get most of my lays. My coaching clients and a tonne of my readers also get laid doing everything I wrote above.

If you want to get laid/find a girlfriend, just take the best quality photos you can (it might take you a few tries to get some decent pics – that’s totally normal), talk to as many girls as possible (you’ll be nervous at first – that’s fine), invite them out for a drink and start meeting women.

Oh, and welcome. You can read more about me here.
