Don't like blurs.  I have seen one, only.  Don't like ads with no pictures, when I am forced to go to a web site.  Really don't like an ad that says something to the effect of "real men tip".  Automatic go to next ad.  I would have more respect for the lady if she just came right out and said "I expect you to tip me"

IMHO, blurred or not doesn't affect my choices.  I think for newer ladies entering the industry the effect would be more than for ones that have built a history and a client base where reputation, reviews and referrals amongst us Johns ("man, you gotta see this one; she'll curl your toes) has more influence.  Yeah, we talk, lol.

Don't bother me. I prefer candid shots to professional photos that have been photoshopped.

Being blurred doesn't bother me as much as using the exact same photo in every ad. Naturally I like to see clear pictures, but I know for different reasons the photos need to be blurred. Also the ad needs to change from time to time. Some of our ladies are great at marketing, but some need help.

which is fine with me, because the reviews should accurately indicate what to expect in terms of looks.

Id say most of my choices have blurred or covered faces and overall Ive been pleasantly surprised. I also prefer candids or just non pro - non touched up photos(ex. Belles), a few girls photos Ive seen are touched up and they dont need it at all, can give off the TGTBT vibe sometimes I think. For example one girl I reviewed is extremely gorgeous but Ive been PM'd a few times confirm her photos.

You are a pretty one to see.

Only a slight hesitation on blurred photos.  Like to see reviews that take away any concern.  I like candids and professional, no preference there, except professional photos provide more comfort that I am with a professional provider.  Hope that helps.

It's been about 50/50 with me in terms of happiness when meeting blurred faces -- i've learned to not place any expectations in my mind of what I want her to look like and that has helped

Prefer non blurred.  
I have been disappointed too many times with seeing providers with blurred photos.  I have started not to see them.  Like most guys I am visual and I may like a certain look verses another person's opinion of looks.  Therefore knowing what she looks like before hand keeps the air in the balloon upon first sight.  I also like a combination of professional and candid photos, it makes it more realistic.
Another good thing to do is update them for time to time.  Like someone else mentioned, some providers use the same photos for years.  I stay away because it raises a red flag in my opinion.  

I think it totally depends on the lady's situation and comfort, and most clients understand that. I started showing my face for several reasons, which I delved into in a recent blog post. One thing I didn't touch on in the post is that I feel showing face allows potential clients to feel a more personal/emotional connection with me. The soul is in the eyes is it not? I've definitely noticed more views on the sites I advertise on and it has been good for business. However I'm not planning on running for office or joining corporate America, it's the artistic life for me and the arts have always been more understanding of such career choices. The post I wrote also details why most ladies do not show faces. If it is not something you are comfortable with for whatever reason don't worry about it, great clients understand, same as they understand the need for screening.  

gives me cause to be more patient.

Ask respectfully and be prepared for her to decline. Oddly enough I get more requests for photos now than when I showed my face, which is a major red flag to me honestly (these requests have always been before screening). Honestly most guys who ask for extra pics are entitled and pushy, meaning you should be extra respectful if and when you ask.

I am very much into the visual side of the equation. I love to see a beautiful face but I can overcome that with a beautiful pair of natural breasts. I can accept a blurred face or covered breasts, but not both.

In the case of a new provider, I typically wait until there are at least a few reviews to validate that her pics are real. Seeing a lady at a social function is another way to eliminate all doubt of what she really looks like.

"The world has to be educated about Blurry Face Syndrome!"

I'm sure most guys would much prefer to actually see your face, but we have all seen providers that don't show it.  For me the biggest thing is how natural the photos look.  If every square inch of the photo has been retouched then I tend to stay away.  I always wonder what they are hiding. Natural skin has pores, moles, changes in color etc; perfect, plastic skin is not attractive.

While I would love to see the true face of a provider, I truly understand why some providers blur the picture. Just as we clients are very security concious, so should providers.  

Blurred for privacy I understand. If hobbyists had to post pictures of themselves you know they'd be blurred. What I don't understand are providers who put their pics in private files. I see that & I just leave the site & move on.

No issue with blurring a face for safety.  Big issue with very very heavy of editing of pictures that makes the skin look like a fog-cloudy or something and then totally takes out tattoos.  Seems like many providers like their tattoos enough to get a bunch so why totally remove them from the photo?  That would be fine to blur if its some kind of identifying thing but dont take out your 7 tats from the pictures, its just misleading.
