You don't need professional photography equipment to pull off good lighting in your MANHUNT profile photo. For somewhere around ten dollars, you can head over to a Home Depot and grab a clip-on utility light. And if you're watching your budget, you can improvise with the lamps around your house. I've taken some of my best profile photos with nothing but a desk lamp!
Armed with your trusty ten-second timer and with your camera's flash turned off, experiment with placement of your light or lamp until you find a level that you consider flattering. What's the point of all this technical hullaballoo? Well, believe it or not… the flash can be your worst enemy. Not only does it flatten everything in an image, but it can also enhance the appearance of blemishes or body marks in an unpleasant sort of way. Give these methods a try, and you'll be surprised at the results!

u have a profile on manhunt?
can we have a look? 🙂
lighting really does work. It’s helped me take some pretty good pics w/o the expensive professional cameras that some people use. You guys experiment, it might take one or two tries, but once you get the right lighting it looks awesome 🙂

Too bad you can not get pics approved fast on the NEW Manhuntless. His profile was lost in the “upgrade,” maybe
