Use one recent photo of your face, taken in the last year, in ordinary light. Women reply when they can see who they would be meeting. A clear face does more than a filter or a shot where you are too far away to recognise.
Crop out other people. Crop out children completely. Crop out your workplace, a name badge, a street sign outside your house, and a number plate. Add a second photo only if it shows something true: a walk, a kitchen, a table. Two honest pictures are plenty.
Be wary of a profile that is only professional photographs. Studio lighting and the same pose repeated are a common pattern on fake accounts. Spotting a fake profile is the rest of that pattern. You do not owe a more revealing photo to be taken seriously. When someone asks for photos is the request you can refuse.
Stand by a window, look at the camera, and use the photo that looks like you on an ordinary day. That is the one that gets a reply from someone who actually wants to meet.
