Your picture on CS needs to attract people (Part B
Males need to learn how to smile and be relaxed, especially in your facial expression. And whatever you do don’t look depressed (although you may be); don’t look like you’ve just been dumped; try to imagine that the camera is the face of your soul mate; think of the things that make you happy – elevate who you’d rather be. And, whatever you do attend to the facial hairs (ears, nose, and eyebrows) – don’t get all the way to a date only to discover that you wished you had fixed them! Show your strength. Women seem to love physical strength, powerful men (money and position) and tenderness. If you can work it, include your hands in some of the images. To compliment this article I’m going to back up with pictures of some of the things I claim you should consider.Camera angle: Not always but usually the nose is slightly off-centred; lowed than higher. Looking into nostrils is not the best look. The way most people look is from left to the right, and therefore, put the head more to the left than the right. If you know you have an irresistible smile then include it, flog it to death. For the females who know that many viewers look at their physical make up – don’t lower your standards and show all of you. There are people who need to love what they will be looking at for the rest of their life with you – your face. Not your bust and legs etcetera – that’s private – that’s only for viewing when you meet – when it all becomes much more personal.
If you have, like I do, people who have worked as photographers or are talented photographers, have them take pictures of you. I’ve suggested to others that you need a 10x10 (ten poses X ten similar frames). Men are easier as they don’t alter their hair style, however, women who have longer hair they need to realise their hair is an asset. However, consider having your hair off your face and back so that your face looks narrow. Have your hair in different positions and styles; up down, ponytail, swept back and so on – you decide.
Allow viewers to see that you are extremely lovely, you have a warmest inner glow and that you are happy. In my opinion, pictures that dare you to look at the character portrayed are always winners. And please, make eye contact. Even if your eyes are small or narrowed, that is, not almond shaped, it’s only a disadvantage if you don’t use that feature.
We the viewer need to see who you are and there’s no such thing as unattractive people but there are poor photographers and poor preparation. Allow you heart and head to be involved and your chances go up percentages. Even if you don’t instantly find someone, but have taken this trip, you are a winner as you now know you are beautiful.

And, no I don't believe it's about how photogenic a person is - of course it makes it a whole lot easier - and some are going to have that but think of what you have and how that has to be to portrayed. Don't give up on what makes you unique from everyone else on the planet.
If I'm horribly blunt send me a backhand and I'll feel it. But for what its worth, I see beauty wherever it exists and that's because I look for it. Not everyone does that - it's my thing - what's yours?
Would you like to expand on this - I don't quite get what you mean - may be it's because it is very early here 5am and I should be in bed.
