New answer:
You can patch the class code with the following code:
\makeatletter
% to patch the code of moderncv, version 2.0.0
%\usepackage{etoolbox} % already loaded in moderncv <===================
\patchcmd{\makecvhead}%
{\ifthenelse{\equal{\@title}{}}{}{\\[1.25em]\titlestyle{\@title}}}% code to patch
{\ifthenelse{\equal{\@title}{}}{}{\\[1.25em]\titlestyle{\@title}}%
\vspace{3.4cm}%
}% new code <=========================================================
{}% success
{\fail}% failure
\makeatother
Change the value of 3.4cm in command \vspace{3.4cm} for your needs.

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,sans]{moderncv}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[scale=0.75,showframe]{geometry} % <=========================

Old answer:
Well it seems you are using the moderncv style oldstyle. There are several styles available with moderncv causing different header, bodys and footer.
So in your case it is important to know the used style (that is the reason I asked already in your last question for an MWE, an compilable code we can copy and test on our computers ...)
You need to patch the building of your header like that:
\makeatletter
% to patch the code of moderncv, version 2.0.0
%\usepackage{etoolbox} % already loaded in moderncv <===================
\patchcmd{\makecvhead}%
{\usebox{\makecvheadpicturebox}\\[2.5em]}% code to patch
{\begin{minipage}[t]{\makecvheadpicturewidth}%
\ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@photo}}%
{}%
{%
\vspace{-1.8cm}%
\color{color1}%
\setlength\fboxrule{\@photoframewidth}%
\ifdim\@photoframewidth=0pt%
\setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}\fi%
\framebox{\includegraphics[width=\@photowidth]{\@photo}}%
}%
\end{minipage}\\[2.5em]%
}% new code <======================================
{}% success
{\fail}% failure
\makeatother
Please see that my used \vspace{-1.8cm}% depends on your used image, change the value -1.8cm for your needs ... Please see that I used option showframe for geometry to visualize the typing area and margins ...
