The Match Artist Offers Dating Photography in Seattle

Oct 3, 2022

October 03, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - The Match Artist, a photography service focused on helping people improve their online dating profiles, recently announced that they have photographers in Seattle, WA ready to help clients put their best foot forward on tinder, Bumble, or their dating platform of choice. Since the average person spends only 3 seconds deciding whether or not they’re interested in someone on a dating app, people who turn to platforms to find love have a very limited time to make an excellent first impression and stand out from the competition.

For people using dating apps in Seattle, a market crowded with tech industry transplants and overshadowed by the Seattle Freeze, having stellar photographs that showcase their personality and make a great first impression is of utmost importance when trying to find dates. Since most people on dating apps use selfies or photos taken by friends who may not be skilled photographers, hiring an experienced dating photographer who knows how to show off a person’s “best attributes” can be a huge advantage in the search for the right person or people.

The Match Artist has been helping people take better dating profile pictures since Co-Founder Nick Friesen took some photos of Co-Founder Shane White that helped him find love on Tinder, a popular dating app. Realizing they might be on to something, the pair formed The Match Artist to help other men who are looking for relationships. While the company started in Dallas, Texas, they now offer their services in a number of popular cities in the USA, including Seattle, Washington, Minneapolis, Minnesota, San Francisco, California and more. As dating photographers, the team understands that their clients have about 3 seconds to make an initial great impression on someone browsing a dating app. Those three seconds can make or break what someone thinks about a profile, which is why it’s extremely important for dating app users to take care in selecting photographs of themselves that send the right message. The dating photographers with The Match Artist talk to each client to learn how they want to be perceived, and then coaches them on how to express themselves through a photoshoot so their Tinder or OkCupid profile picture really says who they are.

For dating photography Seattle, the team at The Match Artist works with their client to create a profile of who they’re looking to attract so they can take photos that will specifically appeal to that person. Often they’ll take several dozen photos during a session before sorting through them to pick the photographs that will have the most impact. Their editor uses a light touch to make sure each picture highlights the client’s best features without appearing overly doctored, because they know that people are capable of spotting a heavily edited image, and are less likely to trust people who use them for their dating app profile photos. By providing high quality photographs that don’t need a lot of editing to look incredible, The Match Artist helps their clients, in Seattle and elsewhere, showcase their best selves.

People who sign up to work with The Match Artist can expect a personalized 4-5 hour photoshoot with a top photographer who meets clients where they are most comfortable being photographed. The photographers remove all of the pressure, and many clients even say the photoshoot was much more fun than they ever thought it could be. The team at The Match Artist tells clients exactly what to wear, where to stand, and how to act, so there’s no guesswork involved in getting the best possible photographs to find the right people on a dating app. The Match Artist’s photographers even provide coaching to their clients on facial expressions, to help them be seen the way they want to be seen through the motion of their face. Clients receive over 200 photos that have been carefully planned and edited to represent who each client really is to the online world.

Typhoon put people off Asian Games opening ceremony, official says

NAGOYA, Japan — Warnings of a typhoon partly explained why the Asian Games opening ceremony in Nagoya took place in front of thousands of empty seats, organisers said Sunday. Saturday's gala at the 30,000-capacity stadium officially launched the continent's premier sporting event, with Japan's emperor and empress in attendance. Fireworks brought the show to a rousing conclusion, but while parts of the arena were full, others were noticeably devoid of people. Olympic Council of Asia director general Husain Al-Musallam said they had to keep one block empty because of the Games flame. "This is one part," he told reporters, adding that more than 70 percent of tickets were sold. That contrasted with an announcement at the Mizuho Park Athletic Stadium that said the ceremony was sold out. "But maybe if you remember, it was a typhoon warning coming to Nagoya and at the last minute the typhoon shifted," Al-Musallam added. "So the same question I've been asked, what happens if the typhoon is coming? That could affect the situation." There was no rain during the ceremony and the storm, having days earlier shaped as a potential threat to the Games, made a greater impact in the Tokyo region. There was heavy rain there on Sunday, where some Games events are being hosted -- notably the swimming -- with possible wet weather forecast for Nagoya later Sunday and Monday.

IOC president impressed by 'beautiful' Asian Games wooden huts

NAGOYA, Japan — IOC president Kirsty Coventry called the shipping container-style huts for Asian Games athletes "beautiful" on Sunday -- but conceded they were "a little tighter" than similar accommodation at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. Asia's biggest sporting spectacle, which opened on Saturday in the Japanese city of Nagoya, has split with past Games by having no traditional athletes' village. To save costs, the more than 17,000 Asian Games participants will stay in temporary huts, hotels and a cruise ship. Some countries have criticised the wooden cabins as too small, with beds that are too short. But after touring the lodgings, International Olympic Committee president Coventry said she could not understand the negativity. "We had similar cabins in Milan-Cortina (Winter Games this year) and the athletes were very happy. And the cabins here are really nice," said the Zimbabwean former Olympic champion swimmer. "They're a little tighter. So, you know, if you want something negative, it's a little smaller. "But I don't think it's a negative thing. I love the village." About 2,000 participants are staying in the lodgings by the water in Nagoya. Coventry said: "The cabins are quiet, they're very cool. The air conditioning is working well. "The flooring and the walls are beautiful. It's better than some of the villages I've stayed in. "So I think to be very fair to Japan and to the organising committee, I was really impressed. "I had only been reading everything that had been said. And I was expecting something completely different to when I walked in." Asked by AFP if she would happily see the temporary cabins and also a cruise ship serve as accommodation at the Olympics, she said she had not been to the vessel. But she pointed to the accommodation at Milan-Cortina, and said those "very closely" resembled the ones in Nagoya. "It's not a new concept," she added. "And it is a concept that I think, for me, when we talk about an athlete experience, being an athlete... as soon as I go in, I'm not necessarily concerned about the look."

Arances, Caluya earn Elite honors; Ramoga, Lim shine in Damosa 5150

Arances, Caluya earn Elite honors; Ramoga, Lim shine in Damosa 5150

MANILA, Philippines – Edgie Arances and Anisha Caluya turned in standout performances to claim top honors in the Filipino Elite Category of the Damosa Land 5150 Triathlon on Sunday, emerging as the leading Filipino performers in the demanding Olympic-distance race here in Davao del Norte. Arances was particularly dominant, combining a strong swim, blistering bike leg and steady run to capture the Filipino Elite crown in two hours, 13 minutes and five seconds, beating Al-Rasheim Saggap (2:13:58) and Earl James Ting (2:22:57). The seasoned endurance campaigner, who has gained valuable experience from competing in major local and international races, completed the 1.5-km swim in 24:01, powered through the 40-km bike leg in 1:05:49, then closed out the 10-km run in 40:34. His performance underscored the combination of power, speed and stamina that has made him one of the country’s rising endurance talents. Caluya likewise lived up to the pre-race expectations, ruling the women’s Filipino Elite field in 2:29:19 after a balanced effort of 23:34 in the swim, 1:17:35 on the bike and 45:37 in the run. Her victory was another strong statement following her gold-medal performance in the Sprint Junior Elite Women’s category of the 2026 national age group aquathlon, showing that she could carry her speed and confidence into the longer Olympic-distance format. Also making their mark were James Van Ramoga and Natalie Doromal-Lim, who topped their respective age groups and claimed overall championships in their categories. Van Ramoga was the first age-group finisher overall in men’s division, clocking 2:22:44 on splits of 25:56 in the swim, 1:09:24 on the bike and 44:46 in the run. He bested Xak Tupas, Jr. (2:31:38) and Gio Juaneza (2:35:06). Doromal-Lim, meanwhile, successfully defended her title in the women’s side, posting 2:43:58 to finish first among the female age-group contenders and complete back-to-back victories in Samal after also ruling the category last year. She had split times of 29:57-1:15:54-54:01, dominating Annabelle Torres (2:49:43) and Althaea Benignos (3:30:47). The race opened under overcast skies and finished in humid midday conditions, with cloud cover shielding the athletes from the full heat of the sun. The manageable conditions nevertheless did little to ease the demands of a course that tested the field across three disciplines. Arances and Caluya stood out in a deep field of competitors in the second staging of the Damosa Land 5150, reinforcing Samal Island’s growing reputation as an emerging hub for triathlon and endurance racing in the Philippines. The Filipino Elite Category forms part of the Philippine Sports Commission’s continuing effort to strengthen the country’s high-performance sports program, while major competitions such as the Damosa Land 5150 also provide a platform to promote national pride and sports tourism. Organized by Sunrise Events, Inc., the second Damosa Land 5150, supported and hosted by Cary Lagdameo, president of Damosa Land, and Samal Mayor Lemuel Reyes, also brought down the curtain on the inaugural four-leg 5150 Triathlon Islands of the Philippines Series, which has taken elite-level racing to some of the country’s most scenic sporting destinations, including Guimaras, Camiguin and Bohol. The series is designed to provide qualified high-performance athletes–including past and current national team members – with a demanding competitive environment that bridges emerging local talent and the rigors of international racing. The series also forms a central pillar of the National Sports Tourism-Inter Agency Council’s program to position the Philippines as a premier destination for world-class sporting events. With its smooth highways, white-sand beaches and vibrant local backing, Samal is poised to deliver a fitting finale to what had been a landmark inaugural circuit supported by the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA). The inaugural Damosa Land 5150 helped establish the Samal race as a fixture on the Philippine triathlon calendar, and this year’s edition further highlighted the depth of emerging Filipino talent. The performances of Arances, Caluya, Van Ramoga and Doromal-Lim capped a showcase of endurance racing that blended elite competition, emerging Filipino talent and the scenic appeal of Samal Island.
