They like seeing me without all the pro glammed up fuss and all sometimes, to remind them I'm real.

I bought a Nikon 5700 and it's been doing great as far as image quality, so I'm shooting at home more and more...sure beats traveling all the time

Thanks for the thoughts....I always wonder if guys go into shock when the see a home pic versus a professionally shot pics. But I like to always look like I do in person and be very real

For a single girl type site, I tend to find the amateur look works better. Makes it look more believable that the girl is actually involved behind the scenes of the site and not just a production company that handles it. The personalized look gives surfers more of an incentive to stick around and I find it's a nice hook to keep retentions up.

Either way, I wish you the best on your site.
