Guys what do you look for in a picture/showcase?

[SD2011]

I look for a great perspective....

[Black Navy]

I look for the following:

1) Current up todate pictures, must have face, eyes, lips , sitting on butt with back facing the camera, standing sideways so the ass can stick out, trendy high heels, hair wipped up.

2) A good tagline

3) Rates and Times

4) Positive Reviews

5) No Glamorous Shots-I have seen providers who look better in person anyway.

I agree with the posters, Good Job

There is no "right" answer here, just trade offs. For guys, we may be missing out on some lookers we would normally see. For the ladies, it's a choice between lost privacy and lost business. The stakes are much higher for the women.

Not all face shots are equal. The ones that can create the most problems are the ones that are, I'll say for the purposes of this comment, less than wholesome. It's more difficult to deny that those are your breasts hanging out or that's your ass up in the air when your face is in the same picture.

Now, if you keep your face (and identifying tattoos or birthmarls) hidden in public ads, and make sure that the attire in your advertising shots is never seen by someone in your RL, it might be easier to avoid any ramifications from a rather wholesome face pic that found its way to someone outside the hobby. You could always say someone stole it from Facebook, or a disgruntled ex sent your photo along with some lies to TheDirty.com.

I'm not saying the risk isn't there. I'm just saying that it can be mitigated. It comes down to weighing the risk (exposure) against the reward (more clients) and how much effort you want to put into mitigating the risk.

The key phrase is TinMan's "future in mind." I seriously doubt that many of the ladies we see consider the risks much beyond their potential impact on the immediate future,

I'm a bit late to this party, but better late than never.

I'm simple: I want to see TITS & ASS.

I'm not talking medical grade close ups, but general pics that leave little or nothing to the imagination. I'm not here looking for artsy pics, a fashion show, or even porno... There are better places for all of those things.

If we're talking business, then I need to see the GOODS. Be tasteful about it, but don't miss the forest for the trees. Bikini shots are fine. I like legs too, and you can tell a lot about a woman's hygiene from her bare feet.

I'm not a foot fetish guy, but if you have pretty feet, you should include them. You might even attract a nice foot rub or two!

I respect a woman's desire to hide her face, but I admit that a pretty face has caused me to pick up the phone more than once... However, it's not a requirement for me.

I also feel that a lady who doesn't include her face can be more intriguing, and it leads me to believe she'll be more discreet in the long run...

This is what I consider a very attractive (and tempting!) showcase:

Have to agree with this one, a LITTLE more specific than "Dallas" or "North Dallas" for example.

That's a lot of real estate. 2 locations in "Dallas" could be an hour apart or more depending on traffic and time of day.
