Not Getting Matches? Your Photos Might Be the Problem
You’ve probably spent hours swiping with nothing to show for it.
Maybe you’ve…
-
Matched with someone but got ghosted before the first message
-
Had convos that went nowhere
-
Got told “you seem great, just not feeling it”
-
Or worse… just sat there with zero matches wondering what’s wrong
Here’s the truth: if you’ve got a solid career, good intentions, and decent looks, it shouldn’t be this hard.
But dating apps are visual-first. Most men struggle not because they’re “bad at dating,” but because their dating app photos don’t communicate value, confidence, or lifestyle. When your photos blend in, you get ignored no matter how good you actually are.
That’s where I come in. As a professional dating app photographer, I help men upgrade their photos and profiles so they stand out instantly and start getting real traction.

How I Learned What Makes Dating App Photos Work
I wasn’t a model. I wasn’t a natural. I used to be the guy swiping endlessly, getting ignored, and wondering what I was doing wrong.
So I experimented relentlessly. I tested everything: photos, outfits, bios, prompts, and messaging strategies.
What I realized is simple: online dating is just digital marketing.
-
Your profile is the ad.
-
Your photos are the thumbnail.
-
Your bio is the hook.
But here’s the part most people don’t talk about. I’m an Asian guy of average height. And for us, the game comes with an additional uphill battle. Negative stereotypes, cultural biases, and being a minority on dating apps all make it harder to stand out.
That’s why my system isn’t built on gimmicks or pickup lines. What I learned was necessary to overcome these hurdles and control perception through presentation.
After years of trial and error, I built a results-focused system that finally works. And now through professional dating app photography and profile optimization, I deliver it directly to my clients so they can skip the frustration and start seeing results right away.
You don’t need to be a model. You just need the right photos, the right profile, and the right strategy all working together.
That’s what I give you: a high-performing, done-for-you dating app system that actually gets results.

“Many of the struggles Vincent shared felt familiar to me as an Asian male, and his experiences really resonated. That’s what prompted me to reach out.”

The Done-for-You Dating App Photography System
Unlike most dating photographers, I didn’t start behind the camera. I started in the trenches like every other guy. I got into photography to fix my own dating results, and now I help men build profiles that actually convert into matches and dates.
Instead of wasting years figuring it out, you get a proven system that addresses online dating in full:
Professional Dating App Photos That Convert
High-converting shots planned end-to-end through outfits, locations, poses, and expressions engineered to stop the scroll and trigger attraction
Profiles That Attract
Photo order, prompts, and profile optimization structured to showcase your best positioning and pull in higher-quality matches
Coaching That Closes
Real-time messaging guidance and a proven framework so you stop fumbling conversations and start setting real dates
This isn’t just a “nice photoshoot.”
It’s not a pickup bootcamp or a 90-day course.
It’s a complete profile revamp and dating app photography system built to generate traction fast.
"The process was very straightforward. Vincent prepared everything in detail including outfits, locations, and poses. So even though I get nervous in front of the camera, I felt completely at ease. He also gave me messaging templates that helped with opening lines."
– Kelvin, 30, Billing Specialist
Real Client Results from Professional Dating App Photography
Most dating programs or generic coaching services make you sit through 8-week or 90-day coaching cycles before you see any change. With my system, most men see traction immediately, often within 24 hours of launching their new profile. That means more matches the same day, dates within the first week, and real confidence backed by proof, not theory.
And these aren’t models or influencers. They’re career-oriented men who finally decided to fix what was holding them back: their dating app presentation.
Unlike generic advice-only coaching or photographers who stop at the shoot, I don’t treat photos as the end product. They’re strategic assets. The real result is what you see here: stronger positioning, higher-quality matches, and faster momentum than most men think is possible. This system is built on execution and outcomes, not vanity shots. Here are examples of quick wins clients experienced:
🔥 Maxed out likes on Tinder and Bumble within a week
🔥 Got 20+ Hinge likes overnight and 100+ Tinder matches in the first week
🔥 Found his girlfriend within a month
🔥 Hooked up multiple times while traveling
🔥 Lost his virginity after years of struggling with apps
What Clients Say After Their Dating App Photo Upgrade
Steven, 29, Optometrist
Before I saw Vincent’s videos, I had no idea how to take decent photos for my online dating profile or how to text well. I was so impressed by his dating app profile photos that I wanted him to take them for me. We met up in person in a big city to take multiple photos at scenic locations.
We got some really good professional photos and upgraded my dating profile. The matches started to flood in and he coached me on how to move the matches to dates and to fun times. Vincent really knows how to make dating app photos look great and authentic. He truly knows how to add value to a dating profile and have people like me get ahead in the dating curve.
Tovey, 37, Finance Director
Before working with Vincent, I was already going on a couple of dates a week, but the quality of my matches wasn’t where I wanted it to be. Vincent’s approach as a dating app photographer stood out as genuine and structured, not gimmicky. He’s incredibly hands-on and helped plan everything from outfits to locations and poses that actually felt authentic to me.
The shoot itself was smooth and professional, and the results spoke for themselves. The women I match with now are far more attractive and aligned with my type. It’s absolutely worthwhile if you’re ready to commit. What you put in is what you get out, and Vincent is one of the rare trustworthy coaches in a space full of noise.
Giovanni, 36, Software Engineer
Before working with Vincent, I could get dates here and there, but there wasn’t much consistency or direction. I found him through Discord and decided to commit after seeing the results other clients were getting. The photoshoot made a huge difference. I had no idea what to wear or how to pose, but Vincent guided everything from outfits, angles, and expressions, and he made sure the dating app photos came out strong. Even small adjustments like optimizing around a bad haircut ended up boosting my matches.
Beyond the photos, the coaching helped me break through mental hurdles and approach dating with more clarity. We reviewed what went well, what didn’t, and how to improve each time. I’m now getting better quality matches and feel much more confident navigating dating apps. If you’re serious about improving your results instead of guessing, working with Vincent makes a real difference.
Vincent flew out to Sydney, Australia to rebuild my dating profile in person. Before that, I was mostly sending outbound likes and not seeing strong traction. He planned the entire shoot strategically around locations, outfits, and angles that would perform well on dating apps. Within days of launching the new photos and prompts, I started getting inbound likes, secured new numbers, and lined up dates in the first week. The biggest shift wasn’t just better photos. It was having a clear system to follow so everything felt structured and repeatable.
- Angelo, 31, Solutions Engineer
Vincent is the real deal. He 25x'd my Hinge profile match rate. I found Vincent through YouTube, and it was clear to me that he knew what he was doing. He guided me through poses, angles and expressions, and was able to get some absolute killer dating app photos. He also helped revamp my profile prompts and messaging so everything worked together instead of just relying on better pictures. Vincent has been an indispensable source of dating knowledge and friendship as we still stay in touch. I cannot recommend him enough.
- Ted, 27, Business Analyst
Before working with Vincent, I knew my dating profile wasn’t optimized, but I didn’t realize how much my photos were holding me back. Vincent planned everything from outfits to locations and directed the entire shoot so the photos looked natural and intentional. Once we rebuilt my profile, I immediately noticed better matches and stronger conversations. The biggest shift was confidence. My profile finally represented me well, and I had a clear system for both photos and messaging instead of guessing.
- Rohan, 33, Software Engineer
I would definitely recommend anyone looking to improve their dating life to consider working with Vincent. His expertise goes beyond just having good dating app photos. I actually flew in from Ontario to shoot with him because I wanted it done right. He doesn’t just take photos. He rebuilds your entire dating profile from photo order to prompts to conversation flow. With Based Dating, you get a comprehensive framework on how to get likes, get matches, master text-game, lock down phone numbers, and meet great women on fun, exciting dates that lead to the types of relationships you want to have in your life, right here, right now.
- Steve, 31, Accountant
Before working with Vincent, I struggled to get consistent traction on dating apps and didn’t feel like my profile stood out. I found him through YouTube and was impressed by how intentional and structured his approach to dating app photography was. I flew in from Florida to work with him because I wanted a full reset, not just better pictures. The photoshoot process was smooth, and the coaching helped me move conversations forward instead of letting them stall. After updating my profile and applying his system, my matches doubled and I started getting significantly more numbers. Vincent helped me build real momentum instead of guessing my way through the apps.
- Chad, 24, Sales Consultant
Vincent transformed my dating life. Before talking to him, I was ready to give up on online dating. Vincent was exactly the help I needed. He took meticulous care planning and shooting photos tailored to perform on dating apps and attract the right women. He also helped refine my prompts and gave me message suggestions whenever I got stuck. I'm already having MUCH more success, and online dating is SO much easier when your photos and profile are doing the work for you. I used to hate online dating but now I'm actually excited about it!

About Me
I’m Vincent, founder of Based Dating and a professional dating app photographer for men.
I started out just like most guys, getting ignored on dating apps and frustrated by the stereotypes stacked against me as an Asian man of average height.
Through years of testing photos, prompts, bios, and messaging strategy, I discovered something most men miss: success on dating apps starts with visual positioning. Once I learned how to engineer high-performing dating app photos, everything changed.
Today, I combine professional online dating photography with strategic profile optimization to help men stand out instantly on Hinge, Tinder, and Bumble. I built this for ambitious, career-driven men who are doing everything right in life but getting overlooked on dating apps and want a smarter solution than guesswork or cold approaching.
Seeing clients go from invisible to in-demand is what keeps me doing this. Because when a man’s dating life finally reflects his real-world value, everything shifts.
Trusted by Men Across the U.S. and Beyond
I’ve worked with men in major cities across the country from competitive tech hubs to high-volume dating markets. No matter the city, the foundation stays the same: high-converting dating app photos, strategic profile positioning, and execution that drives fast results.
I regularly fly out to work with clients because results matter more than geography. Every shoot is tailored to your city’s dating culture, whether that means polished corporate energy in New York or lifestyle-driven storytelling in Los Angeles. Your photos are designed to stand out in your local market, not blend in.
