Good Morning,  
 
To the Men:  
 
I understand that selection is based on appearance and personality. Since you are not able to see the real thing until its time for your date. Do you prefer a more revealing picture to see it all at once or a less revealing picture that lets you use your imagination?  
 
Provider ad vs Provider Domain  
 
Are the pictures/info on the ad enough for selection or do you venture to her website to view the full gallery & specs? What if a provider has no website?  
 
Is she still considered upscale when she lacks professional photos?  
 
To the Ladies:  
 
Do you control your photo shoot or follow the guidance of the photographer?  
 
How can you narrow down what to put in your gallery with so many to choose from? Preference or Random?  
 
If you have less revealing photos like myself do you feel pressure to let it all hang out

Men are very visual, and a bad visual is going to turn off a guy faster than misspellings or other problems.

Yes, I do look at all the photos, so make the all winners.  Invest in a really good photog rather than do them yourself or done by someone who doesn't really know what they are doing.

Good lighting and good posing are the two biggest issues, but there are others.

And yes, revealing is better, but not the end-all and be-all.  Sorry to have to sound shallow, but this really does matter.

A lack of good photos does hurt the "upscale" quotient, for sure.

Can you define what is considered revealing to you?

Which ad board are you on?

I worked as a professional photographer for 30 years, so photos and the quality of the photos mean a lot. When I see a site with photos obviously done by a pro, it tells me that the provider is serious about selling her service. Amatuerish photos suggest someone who's into the business part time, or maybe is just getting into it with no advertising funds.

I look at the pictures on a lady’s website first.  I move on to the other details only if I like what I see.  I want to see what your body looks like, but I don’t need raunchy pictures for that.  In fact, they don’t even need to be R-Rated if done well by a professional.  

I'm still finding my feet with photos, so I completely depend on my photographer to be a good director. I need him (or her) to be able to pose me.  

Most providers should check her site out and take notes.  The pics are tasteful, obviously professional, and give the gents a comprehensive view of this lady (except I would like to see more of your smile...perhaps next time I am in Tampa!).

I know women who have nothing but cell pics who do just fine at lower rates/higher volume. They have never had a website, but get a steady stream of business and reviews. If you're asking for double that, your image should match what you claim to be worth. I feel the same about a woman asking for a grand per date, who has a free website. It's a contradiction of her brand to do that, though I would not say it is wrong because if it works...it works.  

I prefer a mix of pro and candid shots. As far as what is showing, leaving much up to the imagination is good, however a few thrown in to show you aren't hiding anything is good too.

breasts, and midrift.  If you aren't too shy, a shot of your kitty is always appreciated.

While some guys want that, it is on the internet forever and associated with an illegal activity and if you have another job, well I don't have to tell you what might happen.  

Wow- thanks for the great compliments!!

I wouldn't like not having the power to instantly control my own content. You loose alot of freedom and the $500 you pay for almost the same layout is silly. Eventually I will pay a college for a unique design but that's about it.

It's called CMS. And, no..there is NO free site that looks anything like mine lol. I had to pay for the copyrighted photos on my home page. It's pulled now, because I am going to password protect it.

To me revealing is breasts and or face, not necessarily totally nude.  That is enough if you have different angles showing off your figure.

had full control over editing my site's pages, gallery images, whatever and whenever I felt like editing my site through the Content Management System, or taking it offline. If a paid site isn't your style, it's ok, but just know there are designers out there who give you full control over your paid site.

Exactly.  I used wordpress hosted on my own domain for years and recently decided to take the plunge and get the Veda website I've always wanted since laying eyes on one of her sites for the first time.  

control to make updates, when you have a paid site. With a designer who offers a CMS, no you don't. So there's no confusion on my part. And I agree with you that whatever works for you is great. :
