Long ago it was acceptable for ladies many ladies to NOT have professional pictures done. I've always been a firm believer of what you see is what you get. Which is why I never bothered with professional pictures and I liked the camera phone... honestly.

It has come to my attention that this is no longer what men want to see. I'm constantly inundated for requests asking for more pictures. Pictures that I don't have. Besides I don't photograph well and have an allergy to photo shop, LOL.
So what does one do? Get a person schooled in taking these types of pictures? Risking they might attempt to post them in other places without a blurred face, ignoring my right to privacy?
Pay for an actual pro that will make me look like some super hot girl and not the girl next door that I am?
Is less more? The less pictures the more you're interested? Or do you want everything so you can hang out with Rosy Palm and never meet me? Clothing? Make-up? Do new reviews matter to you?
All of these are, for a change, are serious questions. I know it's rare that I'm not messing around and making jokes.

Please share your thoughts. I need a lead on this one and you're thoughts are important.

Thank you in advance!

I think "professional" pics are always desirable, BUT, one can have "quality" pics without hiring a slick professional, or paying $1500+.

A decent honest amateur, or semi-pro will not cost you your ass, & your tits (then again-lol).  
You should negotiate "control" of your pics up front to protect your privacy.

It's no secret that I like to see some "skin" in a provider's pics, and that I enjoy some raunchy shots. Quality is the key regardless.

Camera phone pics, or their equivalent are simply NOT acceptable.

I don't care too much about the pictures, personally. If they're too professional, I start to think maybe they are inaccurate. I just want to know what she looks like, the price and a couple of reviews from names I recognize.

Fuzzy u just want to see me naked. for once...

I agree with you Angie when you say "I've always been a firm believer of what you see is what you get."   Its important to project the real you!  

You are a naturally beautiful woman inside and out, so Im sure any type of pictures you do will show that!

I want to see pics that give me an accurate impression of the providers looks and body. I don't mind if the face is blurred out, as I respect that some girls need to retain certain privacies.

Professional is nice but not required. Most digital cameras take good pics these days, at least good enough for the purposes of your posting.

Photoshopped pics drive me freakin' crazy. The more a photo is retouched, the more likely I will question her real looks.

I much prefer 5-10 accurate photos to galleries full of photos over the last few years. i want recent if possible.

I'm like you, what you see is what you get. I don't think I photograph well and I find it not to be a hindrance cuz I don't have professional ones....I'm very appreciative of the gents that choose me for who I am and see the real me.
But I have always wanted to know how the gents wants me to wear when we meet, ....sexy seductive nighties, a dress or just a robe?

good questions AngieRenee...I'll be watching the answers the gents give!!!!
see ya soon

going to add some, I prefer the nonprofessional pictures.  If I may suggest, maybe a full body shot (not naked) with either a blurred face or turned away.  Even from the neck down would be good.  If you want to be discreet, pictures like Nicole's or Camille's are very nice and enticing.

I have a suggestion that would seem to fit with your fun personality.  Make a contest out of it with trusted clients.  Bring your own camera to the sessions, have the clients pose you and shoot some pics with certain ground rules, and then pick the ones you want to post at the end of the contest.  Winner gets whatever you feel comfortable awarding.  Just a thought, and oh, BTW, I'm pretty good with a camera so I will definitely want in.

Good luck

Angie,
You have a PM

I really dislike the professional posed pictures, with the weird positions wearing too many different lingerie outfits.

To me, the only pictures I need are on of your front of your body, and one of your back of your body.   Do not need to see your face, if you wish to hide that.

To me the "artsy" pictures with only parts of your body showing or just the top of the breast are pretty to look at, but do not help me decide whether to see you.  In fact if all I see are those, I assume she has something to hide.

Hi Angie! I had to respond to this because at one point I thought you needed prof. pics to be "successful" if you will although I was whacked a boudoir studio fee, the session with the photographer, the photos (on a cd not even printed) for 4500.00 beans. . . This time around I used a friend in the hobby who knows his stuff for a flirting exchange. . . priceless.

It is personal preference but when it comes down to it, the subject is the most important aspect. You're just fine either way

Kisses,
Audrey

My company is cutting corners left and right. One thing they are saving money on is professionally done pictures. Where before they paid a professional photog to do portrait shots, they now hand me a point and shoot digital camera and I take a picture. Plus I am an intermediate experienced Photoshop user, so I can fix many flaws that may appear in a photo.

So just have anyone take some pics (or use the timer on your own camera for self-portraits), then find someone trustworthy to edit them for you. Too bad about your PS allergies, but I think most touchups are minor. I think I remember your pis from way back when you had real short hair and those pics came out great. I'd say about twenty pics from moderately dressed going in stages to topless would do it.

Good luck.

That being said, I also enjoy the artist view that a good photographer can provide. Sometimes a good photograher can bring out the sexy in me with his attitude,atmoshere, point of view...The shots I currrently have on my site were done by a friend but I recently did a professional shoot and will be updating my site soon.I really enjoyed the photograher's perspective and had fun with the whole experience.I think the key is "clicking"with the photographer and making sure that your photos are not over photoshopped-that you still look like you.I do not want to look like perfection,I want the real quirky me to come out.

Professional pictures can be nice, but I get more guys who would like a good honest, accurate picture.  I more times will have a client snap a few....I have a photographer that I pay, but the one I use most doesn't photoshop at all...and that is more how I like it.  I have had no complaints as of yet...I like my pictures to be me, not some Barbie that may or may not resemble me.

If you are worried for discretion, I can understand not wanting a bunch of photos floating around...it's important to trust who takes your photos.  But the best person is you...I also use my good ole digital camera with a self timer to take pics, works wonders.

Angie,

I know what you mean about not having too many pics out there.  I like to see a few real pics, not photoshop touchups.  I could take some for you if you would like.
