Example 1: Your first photo (most important)
Use a clear face shot with good lighting. No sunglasses, no hidden face, no blurry images.
Example 2: Variety photos (2nd to 5th slot)
- One lifestyle shot (cafe, outdoors, event).
- One full-body or outfit shot.
- One photo that shows your vibe—without being random.
What to avoid
Steer clear of low-effort, cluttered, or confusing photos.
