Formal Pictures

Golly msmolly...you may have something there. I’ll try a different one. Stay tuned. Thanks again.

Maybe. There's something about it that doesn't appeal to me. I think it's the expression, but it could be the combination of the expression and the bow tie.

Wondering about my default picture also. Too formal?

Thank you velma.

Honestly that black and white unbuttoning one should be the default pic. It’s very well composed and gives you the anticipation women crave.

I added a blushing emoji but it came out as question marks but thank you again for your positive critique.

Hi Goodgolly if you look closer at the top you will see an undershirt. Yes I am wearing one. Thank you for the compliments. ??

Velma's the photo maven, but I like the new photo. Maybe (I can't believe I'm saying this, because "put your clothes on" is advice I give often), no undershirt, though? You'd need to close the gap a little if you didn't want to look like a Playboy parody, so it might be too tricky.

Really, though, I like the look.

Hi Ron and Kathy. I understand what you are saying. I have been in and out of swinging. Things changed as I have gotten older and I just wanted an impression of how people currently perceive single men. I’ve seen new faces on here and have seen similar too. I do understand what you mean and hope you are both happy in the lifestyle.

Thank you for commenting. Yes I need to break out the iron and take pictures outside of my house. I’m able to take constructive criticism and it’s helpful.

I got in late last night. I finally have a moment.

I'm not too crazy about the Tie pictures. The shirt is wrinkled and... it's nice, but it looks more like "office worker" than "sexy."

Try putting on a jacket with the tie. Have a friend take a few pictures of you at a nicer bar drinking something brown from a glass. Also take a few in a jacket and no tie with the shirt unbuttoned to the second button. That's a good look.

OP: A vest may help.

A suit on a man is like stockings on a girl.

But yeah, iron your shirt.

Er. Do you have any,idea how hot a shirt and tie are? So, no, not too vanilla. You just need to figure out how to take that photo without so many wrinkles, because it's the crispness of the shirt that is key.

I would like to know if wearing a shirt and tie in my pictures shows a perception of being too vanilla. I'm trying to give a good first impression to people until they are ready for my personal galleries. Thank you.
