My last question for y'all. Im having a professional photoshoot for my website and I can't decide if I should show my face or not. I don't care if people find out what I do. I love this job. What do you prefer? Blur or no blur?

If you have no problem showing your face, then a beautiful smile and seductive eyes will make your pictures 1000 times better.

Show the smile but blur the face unrecognizabella so someone that "you don't" want to know your business, can't find out your name and what you do...
 Like the Hotel Desk Clerk or the photo recognition software.
1984 was 26 years ago and technology has billioned since then.

If you are 100% sure, and as you say "I don't care if people find out what I do" than please show your face.

you can show the fellas your pretty face once they have been verified...don't think cops don't look at your site too :(

Screen cap or right click your head shot and print it off. If you work out of hotels, they will take that printout and show it around...and there is no mistaking who you are or what you do.

Are you really that jealous of me?

Rather sad don't you think?

You know I didn't even think of/notice it until you said something... not that I care how much anyone posts.

Does anyone care other than the moderators? They have to read/approve our mindless (or intellectual) chatter.

I don't care how much anyone posts, and don't care much what they post.

But I do care when they pretend to be me with their choice of aliases.

If I say something controvercial or dumb, so be it.  But I do take exception when others cause problems in my name.  They each have 20 or 30 manes of their own they can use.

You seem to care very much what is said around here, and the true identity of the poster impacts if you reply kindly or with ire.  Fine by me, but don't lie to yourself and us.  Just because we use more than one name doesn't mean that we're too dumb to read you.

I don't think WHO I am replying to makes a difference, but HOW THEY posted absolutely does.

I don't know what you are referring to and I'd be glad to have you post examples, but I almost always reply in kind.  When someone calls me out with a string of curses I have this reaction to reply in kind.  Most the exchanges I start are completely civil.

The fact that most those "friendly" posts in my direction are from aliases is not my decision.

Go "read" me any way you want.  That is exactly why I put my body of work under the single name, so people can decide.

and expertise about all things hobby related!
If only BP was being as transparent as you are!!!  LMAO

1) when did I claim to be an expert?  I share my experiences as I saw them, claiming they are my experience, nothing more.  Which is what I thought this board was about.  You seem to think otherwise.

2) What do YOU think is the puropse of this board?  To hide expeience and opinions?  To see how many sarcastic comments you can make in one day?

You exaggerate to absolutely no end.

Nobody could know what you profess to know. It really made me laugh when on a separate post you loaned a hooker $30,000. Do really think everyone is going to swallow that bull shit?

It's not only that you have to respond with authority on each and every post, but the classic whoppers (and I do not mean it takes two hands) you cast out there is incredulous.

Have your fun, because you are never going to stop. But expect to be called out with "Bullshit" from time to time.

I'll be waiting for your next response "last word freak".

when you know nothing about what you say.

Would you mind occasionally giving the entire context when you "quote" me?

"Nobody could know what you profess to know."  

Just how do you determine that?  Because YOU don't know something then "Noboby" could?  What a huge ego it takes for you to believe that.  Give me specifics slander boy.  There's not a single thing I've posted that isn't true except the items posted with the obvious tongue in cheek.  The fact that they do not fit your personal experiences really doesn't cause me to lose sleep.

"It really made me laugh when on a separate post you loaned a hooker $30,000."

Oh, there you go again with your selective reading.  Yes, I did.  And as you forgot to mention she is a lot more than that to me (which I stated) and she put up collateral worth more than the $30K (which I also mentioned).  I presently have in my safe deposit box several pieces of her jewelry worth more than what she owes me.  I know the value of one piece because I gave it to her years ago; I know the value of the others because we went to get them appraised together.  $30K is a lot of money to me, but she is very important to me, and at my age I have what I need.  If she doesn't pay it back I've already picked out the necklass I want to be burried with!  ;)

She is my friend in a lot of ways.  I'm sorry you have no one you think is worth that to you, it must make for a lonely life.

Of course you have also called a lot of ladies on this board liars as well.  If you feel $30K is such a whopper size figure then I am sure you think every upper end provider who charges in that range for a week's companionship a liar as well.  Does that make you and your $30 budget feel better?

I wonder how big a seizure you'd have if you knew the amount of money RICH guys spent on their favorite women.  My lending one lady $30K is a pittance in comparison.  Any guess on what one former Senator from the northeast spent in one weekend on escorts?  Better not, that would REALLY make you feel inferior.

Why the insatiable need on your part to rip anyone who doesn't live the same shallow life you live?

Show your beautiful face.. It definately helps when a hobbyist is choosing a provider..
Thats just my opinion..
Bree, if you need any further help feel free to contact me via private mail..
I would be happy to help
sincerely

If it doesn't bother you, by all means, let us see your face.  I understand why some girls won't show their face, but when deciding on a girl I much prefer to see her face.

If showing your face doesn't bother you it will get you more business. There is more than a few face men out there that think a woman's face is a big turn on. I am one myself.

They want easy access to see what you look like.  That's it.  Nothing more.  For your safety, do not show your face.  

This business is still illegal. Hotels, LE and whomever else can use it against you. Not to mention some guy who might try to stalk or blackmail you. I haven't always done the best job at blurring/cropping my face and wish I would have.

As well, it provides discretion for your clientele. Some guys don't want to be with a "known" provider. They want to be seen out with a lovely woman.

Reviews can speak for your "facial" qualities. As well, a gentleman can still have something wonderful to discover about you when you open the door.

Kisses,
Vanica Love

This might be too much blurring for some, but if you like this kind of blur, I am happy to give you the 411.

We all have different tastes. If I just read the review descriptions and not looked at the pictures, I would have been disappointed countless times.

Obviously, the less identifiable someone, the safer they are.

We all strike a risk/reward balance.

If a woman has a pretty face, there is no doubt that showing it would likely be better for business. But at the same time, it makes her more susceptible to various forms of harm -- such as being discovered by a family less than appreciative; or by her full-time employer.

So I agree that it is generally safer not to show one's face; just as it is safer for me if providers never learn my real name.

hmm..???Im a provider and I know many providers who do..
its an individuals choice..
Gotta love it ..I love that alias handle ..its very cute.wink..
with true respect!!

Other providers.
Okay, maybe a couple of providers.

Some guys will not book a provider without seeing her face.
In addition, a provider should not complain if she is given a 6 in looks because she hid her face.  

Send me the picture, I'll make it blur...

You enjoy your job, and that's great.

Will you want to retire some day?  When you do, might you want this part of your life to stay dormant?  Just because you take down your site the pics don't go away.  They live in archives, they live on guys' computers who downloaded a copy.

No matter what you do, the possibility of an angry client, wife, competitor provider, ... always exists and clear face photos make dangerous weapons.

Anyone who decides body photos, review descriptions, and everything else available is not enough, you're better off moving on to the next client.

Alfred_nose_bleeder122 reads

to retire someday"?  No she wants to be a HO till she's 98 like a few of them around here.  Actually 98 yr old HO's do serve a useful purpose....they give "followme" someone to flirt with on the board!
So what is it these guys do with those archived photos?  Go around and blackmail old has been providers? Are you speaking from experience here?

I thought you were just a a hopeless mangina, I'm beginning to think you are just a perv who goes from website to website capturing photos for later use!   That's just sick, and Ickey!

Yes, providers (active and retired) HAVE been dammaged with photos, though usually it's revenge, not blackmail.  I know too many who have been victims of it.

Stalkers.  Ex SO's who want child custody.  SOs of clients who want "revenge" on the provider.  Rejected suitors who send the photos to employers, husbands, parents.

They all happen.  If you don't think so you are naieve, stupid, or blind.

Good to know how you feel about providers.  No wonder you use an alias to post this, I bet it would do wonders for getting your next appointment.  Not that I care whether you do or not.

I just call simple BULLSHIT. You do not know anyone. What you do is read the boards and every thread (excepting the PO board) and pick up tid-bits of information and pass it off as your own personal knowledge. Pathetic.

Anyone could have made those claims in which you to eloquently typed. Geesh

Now that you've had your moment of stupidity go read what I said.  You yourself agree such things have happened and been written about.  So now you're calling "bullshit" because you agree with me?!?  And I thought there was a bottom to the level of stupidity of some posters; you prove me wrong.

Yes, I know women who have been dammaged that way.  And you know what?  I've even let two of them at different times live in my house while they tried to get their lives back together after being outed to families.  What do you think I should do, name the ladies I know who have been blackmailed?  Should I give you their home names and addresses so you can interview them.  If that's what you want then you are dumber than even I could have imagined.

Admit it, it doesn't matter what I post you and some others will shout "BULLSHIT" before you ever read it.  You'll claim it's all lies because you don't live your life that way.  I'm not telling you to live it that way.

By the way, why do you think I don't read the PO board?  ;)

Many women here show their faces. They don't seem to have any issues. As for the safety issue, one can't do a reverse lookup on a picture to find your address. One can be done on a phone number though.

I have photos I look at & think "I so wish this was a different universe!!"  I'd love to show my face.  I also love this job, am proud of it and tell people I *trust* about it.

But....

I know that almost *all* men, clients or not, browse escort sites looking for free pictures of naked girls :)  And I don't need to deal with the unfortunate assumptions people have about sex workers 24/7 -- from the boy who bags my groceries to, gods forbid, one of my co-workers at my day job.  A friend of mine who's very open about her work as a pro-domme has had to deal with this a few times (male 'friends' assuming that meant she was sexually available for free aka 'a slut'... ?!?!?!).

I think someone mentioned that clients can become quite attached to their ATF, saving photos.  I've personally seen clients post photos from 10+ years prior (even scanned PRINT photos from days gone by!) of their former ATFs who have moved on.  You may not know where you will be in 10 years!

Lastly, and also as someone else mentioned, many clients don't want everyone to know that they are out at dinner with a paid companion.  If you are someone who goes out on the town with your friends, then in my opinion, photos aren't the best idea.

I think every provider makes her own informed decision based on her future plans, current situation etc.  I consider it like safer sex -- we all make our own informed decision.  

I opt for plausible deniability :)

I dont' know how ladies get by and snag clients with blurred or pics absent faces.  
I've done both.. tried blurring all my pics for a time then not blurred and my face seems to increase my sales.

And I have a pretty nice body.

Maybe it varies for each person but I've found showing face helps my biz if my experience is any help.  

Most people aren't scanning escort sites and memorizing each face..  so being recognized isn't as common as some might think. IMHO

hide their face for a reason.  I have had a couple not so pleasant surprises!  Then the ladies get pissed because they have a hot body, and a face like a pekinese, and their review is not a 9!
On the other hand, there are ladies who may be a bit heavy, or skinny, or a hunchback,etc, but have a very pretty face.  They use their face as their main selling point.

I guess it's all in what you want to hide, and for what reason you want to hide it.!

I'm far more likely to see a woman if I can see her face.

Thanks you all for your input. I've decided to go
ahead and show my face. It's part of good marketing.
I've been been called cute, pretty, very pretty
and a few rare beautufuls. I think I'm a 7 or 8 and
I have a rockin bod so I have nothin to loose!
I love this board!!

I prefer showing my face so that's my bias in my answer....at the same time I don't want anyone recognizing me I lol still show my face and figure if anyone I know recognizes me i'm 99.9% sure they won't say anything to me or anyone else I know because if they see my site or any ads of mine that means they are looking for a female that's doing exactly what I am lol. I plan to get a pro shoot in another week or 2 and my face will be shown no blur.

I much prefer to see a face than a blur.
