Try a Mysterious Expression
A neutral, serious, or slightly stern expression enhances the classic film noir detective aesthetic.

Portrait Orientation Works Best
Front-facing or slight profile shots capture the dramatic lighting and styling more effectively than full-body photos.

Embrace the Monochrome
