The Best Tool in Pick Up

Ok well maybe the second best...the BEST tool would have to be a condom which you should have on you every time.

However other then that the best tool for Pick Up is...drum roll please....the CAMERA.

Many people when given this question will sometimes say a pen and paper (or buisness card) but in reality, with skilled application, the camera will win hands down every time. Also note by camera I mean a digital camera where you can see the pictures right away.

What makes it so special? Well first of all it allows for quickly getting in close and helps break possible kino barriers, such as putting your arm around her waist. Or making multiple other forms of kino socially acceptable...



It's also fun and builds comfort to look at pictures that the two of you take together and can be easily used to break rapport and tease her. You can incorprate role playing into it by taking "bad ass" pictures




goofy faced pictures



pictures of her kissing your cheek.




and of course sexy pictures...



Other benefits are actually for working the room and not so much the girl. This is what many refer to as flash game. When you're in the club and you take a picture of yourself with a hot girl, or two, or three...lol, the flash has everyone look over and guess what every girl in the club will see. Instant pre-selection. It makes you the center of attention and the party...since girls are validated by attention (men are validated through physicality) and want to be with the party they'll naturally gravitate to you!

If you're identity is that of a photographer it's obviously a great way to ground yourself to the girl and bring her into your world. Finally the camera can be used in any stage of the PU.

One of my best default openers involves the camera. I go up to the girl and tell her to take a picture of me and my friends, once she does (social norms demand it) I can then tease her LIGHTLY to break rapport or reward her for compliance and build comfort. Then I'll usually build comfort a bit and take a picture with her to help with attraction.

You can also use the camera in qualification by having her pose for you while you take a picture, either with you and her or just her. By having her try to look good for the picture she invests and works for you, also you take a high value role by telling her what to do and leading the interaction. Finally when it's all said and done you take an approval role letting her know what you think of the picture which solidifies the attraction. Having a digital camera that also can record video is definately a bonus as well. As for sexual escalation and the bedroom...well use your imagination ;)

P.S.- Should a girl ever open you by asking you to take a picture of her and her friends (always a good sign!) a great little trick is to get them ready and posing and then take a picture of yourself with THEIR camera! This will get a laugh and then you can take a picture of them, after that you can optionally have some other guy take a picture of you and all the girls (remember flash game).

P.S.S- If anyone has other fun ideas on how to use a camera in field make sure and post a comment!
