Just curious, came across a provider on the ad board and was very intrigued.  Only one recent review available, older reviews were mostly solid but she went under a different name before.  Visited her site and found that she does not share any photos of herself at all, citing discretion as the reason.  She also says that requests for photos would be ignored.  That's a new one for me folks.  
   
As hobbyists, we are laid bare under the screening process.  In return, it seems not a big ask to see a few recent and representative photos, even just body shots.  After all, faces and tattoos can be blurred.  

I have one of two choices. I accept her decision not to provide pics and move on. The other is base my decision on the information at hand and move forward.

If she chooses not to show any pictures, then I just move on to the next provider.  No need to get all worked up over it.  

Thought it was odd. Deal killer for me too...

set a date but ask to meet her for drinks first ...  if she says no .. that's a giveaway .. if she says yes and shows up 30 lbs heavy and 30 years older than declared i say you are 100% in the right to pass on going upstairs.    I say you are not a jerk if you dont give her $ if she shows at the bar up plainly not as expected.   her fault not yours.   however there are hot girls out there that dont want their images online so i say go for it   worst case you are out the price of a couple of drinks.

I did a little looking but couldn't find the link. How about posting it?

if you have to be so discreet that you cant even post a body shot then maybe its not for you.

One of my girlfriends, Hannah Covington does this.  Not sure if that's who you are speaking of, but she's young and absolutely gorgeous with nothing to hide but her privacy. I'd recommend her any day.  I guess it's every individual's choice.  If you email and get a good vibe see that the girl is connected to other reputable providers I wouldn't worry.  If it's Hannah definitely give her a chance!

I find her approach very interesting.  I admire her for sticking to her guns and finding ways to entice hobbiests to her.  Yes I'm an old horndog.... but I do find the hobby interesting in that there are so many ways that ladies  find to market.  Each has their own style and I am sure degree of effectiveness.    Just an interesting approach!!  Best to her!!!

... and is still one of the highest rated ladies in Southern California. And no question she has VERY good reasons for discretion. And at the end of the day, there are many ladies who do have "day jobs" and discretion is as important to their private life as it is to a high profile hobbyist.  

if the girl is Hannah i can vouch she is very cute.  kinda girl next door - hottest smart girl in the class hot.

While it may be rare to advertise online and have a website with no photos that is her choice.
But if she clearly states for discretion purposes and you email her anyway to ask about it....more than likely the date is not going to happen.I feel you can be discreet and still have photos of yourself available for viewing blurred/cropped.
But again her choice and if she is not hurting for clients why change her business model?It works for her more power to her!

WOW....Who pissed in your corn flakes....He was Just asking a question...

I'm even leery of someone not showing their face, let alone no pictures at all.

I wish I knew the secret to filling up my calendar with no photos on my website for the gentleman to enjoy.
Maybe I'm doing this alllll wrong...haha

A great indicator that her type of gent may have once referred to the yellow pages for booking.
While the industry has evolved thanks to the internet, there are still providers doing things the old fashioned way.
After all this is "the oldest" profession.

My answer to the question originally posted is "yes" if she were highly recommended by a trusted provider or fellow hobbyist that I know.
If her posts or ads piqued my interest, but I didn't have enough intel from a trusted source, I would probably hold off and hope to meet her at a M&G.

She has a lot of reviews from very reliable longtime reviewers. It's her choice how she chooses to conduct her business. You probably could have even asked for a PM  from a  few of them for some sound advice on this issue.

Send a message to some of her past reviewers.Her rates seems very reasonable for vegas.

It works both ways and each side can decide for themselves.

White Knight, let me tell you I am the total opposite of a white knight.. (i modified for spelling errors-was a math major in college so my spelling is bad but anyway)...I know its not a test run, but to each his/her own...  Just got back from my favorite underground stripclub where you can see all the woman shake their ass then decide what you want, that's the way I like (although no one asked).  

I am personally very picky and would not see a lady without photos.. that being said, it is her right to disclose photos or not and your choice to see her or not...there are many other ladies to see and she has many clients that will see her without or without photos... I personally would respect her choice for privacy and will simply choose to see someone else. I have somehow if a limited budget these days so I choose carefully who I play with but if money was less of an issue, I guess I would perhaps take a chance and probably get lucky.

Its horses for courses

the only place I post pictures of my face and or body are on TER ad page, and I can delete it at a later time. . If a client were to e mail me to inquire about me sending them more, I would.  
I have had a family member see my pictures online and I was "outed" so my privacy is very important.  
I had to chime in, now that I have personally went through something like this, I never judge anyone on pictures or what's on a site. I trust the reviews and the reputation that comes with them

When she first started. That's what attracted me to her at that time. Then in time came her stellar reviews and soon after,the need for pictures wasn't needed. And she hasn't looked back at that decision. To this day, Hannah is one of my biggest "regrets" in not meeting her when I had the chance...my bad.

That's a fair point.
