I'll address a number of points made in the previous replies.

- I am a little OCD.

- This is all just my opinion after all.

- The posted photo was not the worst example of this that I've seen.  Just the latest.  And, it's a good photograph.  But, it's also a missed opportunity.

- This provider is both attractive and desirable.  And, the fact that she reveals her face is courageous and generous.  But, she manages to show her face in other photos, that in my opinion, display the rest of her beauty as well.

- I'm simply observing that there are a vast array of ways to position the human body.  And, millions that could be considered provocative.  If you have limited space, or more importantly, viewer's attention, you should concentrate on appearing as alluring as possible.  i.e. avoid 'slouchy' photos.

- On this particular provider's site, it is part of a portfolio.  But, on her P411 profile, it is also one of only three photos featured.  If you can only show three photos, surely there is a more flattering pose than this.

- I'm speaking generally, about ANY pose that does not strictly accentuate the provider's assets or feature their desirability.  Let's not forget, these ladies are entrepreneurs, in competition for customers.

- If my point remains unclear, go check out some lingerie galleries and pay attention to how many 'slouchy' poses you find.

I love women (understatement).  But, I am biased towards flat tummys and well defined breasts (not necessarily large).  And, I suspect that I'm not alone, based on the popularity of many models.

From time to time, I will come across a profile, where the provider seems to check all of my boxes.  I'll then check out her photos and inevitably, there is a photo where she is in a seated position, slouching forward with her elbows on her knees.  Maybe, by leaning forward, she is suggesting that she is a good listener (important).  Or, there is a photo where her shoulders are back, her hips are back and her belly (large or small) is sticking out.

Ladies, if your intent is for the gallery to look like a model's portfolio, I get that.  But, for me, once I've looked at your profile and read your reviews, it is the photos that close the deal.  I'm always disappointed when I see these photos, because in my mind, these are the worst possible poses for featuring the provocative beauty that is the female body.  And, missed opportunities.  If you're posting links to your photos on TER, then your primary goal has to be to appear as sexy as possible.

I've posted an example here of the 'leaning forward' pose (I cropped the face).  And although the full photo does feature the provider's beautiful face, it is a missed opportunity, because it does not tell me anything else about the rest of her.

fwiw - When you're having your photos taken, keep in mind what your staff sergeant would tell you:  "Head up, shoulders back, stomach in".  And if you're photographer encourages you to strike the 'elbows on knees' pose to be 'artsy', you should consider featuring hella cleavage (which, despite the fact that the model in this photo has beautiful breasts, we are unable to see them).

Just my $0.02 ladies.  Take it or leave it.

You are saying this one photo does nothing for you but yet you state the pic shows her beautiful face when uncropped. Isn't that a good thing, to start at least? No, it doesn't show the whole woman but I am going to guess other pics the girl has made public will. I would agree if this was the ladies only picture. I like a svelte body as well but nothing from that picture would cause me alarm in any way. In fact, if that was the first pic I saw of her I would eagerly be searching for the others. She looks like she could be very hot, from what I can tell.
I guess I just don't get hung up on any one or two pictures. It is the sexiness that comes across in the totality of the photos that informs my decision.

Look, we all have poses that push our buttons and others that don't. Girls can't be expected to cater to one preference which is why portfolios usually show a variety of poses. Let's not over-complicate this.

Ladance fetch pose  Works for me...

Oh, i see hole in the weave  of the chair. And as a 70's kid not only would that rip at her hair but shredder the lacey lingerie a bit.  

Lots of Rattan chair Using Photographers  never fix those but might add something over them...

This pic tells me that she appears to be toned and in shape. I really see nothing wrong with this pose.

What I do find a little questionable, is the choice in lingerie for the pic. The bunched up ruffles in the front seems to distract from her toned body and the overall sexiness of the pose.

Certainly a single pic or the main pic should really grab attention, be provocative , hot, sexy.   But if it is just one of a portfolio, then you do want a mix.  I've seen a series of pics all from the same angle.  A total waste of opportunity.

After reading all of that, I thought the photo would help me understand exactly what you meant about poor posture. I was let down. Instead of unsightly belly folds or bare boobs smashed against knees or a bent back, I see nothing but an otherwise attractive woman leaning slightly forward while seated and completely covered with clothing on her midriff and torso. Her posture is neither alluring nor off-putting in the photo, in fact, it's barely noticeable at all. Like you stated, you can't really tell much more about her from looking at this one photo, but how many ingredients does it take to make a great meal? One photo does not an impression make.  It's like only looking at a woman's location and deciding if you want to see her, or only looking at her eye color, or only looking at her age. It takes a culmination of data to arrive at a decision.  

I don't see myself jumping into your bandwagon.

Your concerned about posture or the wrong pose?

I say let the pics be current, accurate, and the actual provider you'll see!!

That last line admonishing us to follow your perspective is a little preachy. Like you stated above, it's your opinion, which means that if others don't buy into it, neither side is wrong. Personally, I don't see it your way, as simple as that. Even if you had used a photo that helped bolster your point better than the one you selected, the image of an escort slouching in her photos doesn't bug me. I never would have considered it as an issue or a topic of discussion prior to reading your post. For me, there are far worse visuals that truly ruin escorts' photos.

Not every single photo needs to be provocotive, especially when there are at least a few of them.  Hell, an array of good photos of an escort can capture people's attention without any of them being provocative. For example, some escorts choose to show their nipples, or full breasts, or vagina, or anus in their online ads, and some do not. Some clients like seeing that nudity, some do not. Neither party is necessarily wrong for making those choices, it's all up to personal preferences.  

I have more of a problem with the poorly-chosen backgrounds or settings of some escorts' ads. Bathrooms, especially public restrooms, make horrible backdrops for an escort to publish photos. Messy and unkempt rooms do too. I also dislike seeing men in photos with the escorts, especially if he's baring his junk or if they're engaged in a sex act. Drug paraphernalia or even scores of beer bottles and ashtrays overflowing with ciggie butts and doobies are also a turnoff for me, yet all of these examples are rampant in some photos.

Lastly, not everyone is a sophisticated professional.  That includes escorts as well as clients. Joe Six-Pack and Suzy From The Block may find themselves in the P4P theater and be perfectly happy with how they present themselves. You're not wrong for liking what you like and preferring what you prefer. The same goes for the rest of us too.

...in gauging whether I find a provider attractive or not.

Virtually every provider site, ad or profile that I've looked at over the years has featured a number of photos. Some are professional shots, some are selfies and the best providers provide a mix to showcase themselves in a wide number of ways.

My "pet peeve" is, if in all of those photos, she doesn't show herself with at least ONE decent face photo where she's smiling (even if she blurs out the face above the mouth). It's not a deal-breaker for me, but another provider with a few good "smile" photos will more than likely get my business.

We all have our preferences and generally those are best kept to one's self. Otherwise, be prepared for a good deal of flak incoming.

Buena suerte!
