So with photo's done professionally are you more likely to see someone or is it the wording on the profile that gets you interested. So question is when you see the profile for the first time , what is it that makes you pick up the phone and make that appointment? For me it's not just about professional photos.
Hi
I studied cinematography in film studies, so this is kind of up my street.
A picture is a thousand words. You maybe have 300 escorts advertising in dublin alone. what makes a first time client choose to click into one escort profile over another? The answer is the quality of the photos, or as we put it in film, cinematography.
It is all to do with psychology more than anything else. good pictures are working on your subconsciousness as much as your consciousness and they draw you in to the profile. The colours have to be right and how the escort blends into the picture is also important. Furthermore the lightling in the back ground has to be of a certain way. And when you add up all these things, coupled with the good looks of the escort (another very important quality) and if she is wearing clothes that complement the lighting and background and so on, you get high quality photos. But it takes a lot of work. On film sets they spend hours setting up the scenes to make it look pleasing on the eye and cinematographers are paid a lot. (The cinematographer is the directors best friend) When we made a film, it took maybe three days to shoot four minutes. If it can be done in five minutes, it will be done wrong. Its an art in itself.
Before photography, you had painters, who tried to achieve the same thing. They used try to paint something that causes you to almost become almost aroused someway by looking at it and it catches your attention. Van Gogh was very precise about his colours. Look at Monet's picture Sunset in Venice, it just does something.
Body language is about 80% of communication, and this plays out in our visual field when we look at an escort profile. The pictures draw you in and the wording serves to complement the picture.
unfortunately, im not as good looking as some of the escorts here and im also male!! so i wont be advertising any time soon, but if i was, it would be imperative that the I used high quality pictures. Cinematography is to film, what clothing is to a woman. And astute use of cinematography is a powerful tool as any advertising company would attest.
( i hope i didnt come across as too pretentious)
