Photos From Clients?

[+ Reisr30]

Actually asking me to send a photo takes a provider of my list. Kyle Connors is my type but in his RM profile he says a photo is required no exceptions which surprised me:

Not impressed. Posted in my city, sent message via app, then changed city with no reply. Moving on, NEXT!

After I had one escort threaten blackmail, I would not even consider sending them an image that they could use for said purpose in advance. I believe that most of the guys out there are decent people, but not all of them.

He's a deep thinker!?

[Jamie21]

I never ask for pics from clients and prefer not to receive them although sometimes they’ll send a dick pic or body pic when booking. Often it comes from guys who are anxious about their cock size or their body, as in “am I hot enough to book?”.

 

I’m professional, all I need to know is that they’re over age 21 and they’ve no health conditions that are contraindications for massage. I treat everyone the same regardless of their body shape or physical attributes. For me sometimes the main challenge in performing isn’t what they look like it’s how my client behaves. Behave like a dick and you’re not going to get much dick if you know what I mean. Behave with respect and we’re definitely going to have a good time.

 

I do think that if you’re in the business of escorting or erotic massage then you’re expected to be able to see all clients and give them all a great service. When you start vetting clients for attractiveness then you’re not really escorting you’re just getting paid to satisfy your own sexual appetite. It’s different and the client will be able to tell if he’s a 10 or a 7 when you draw the line at 5 if you know what I mean.

I will probably go against the forum consensus, but I find reasonable for escorts to ask for a photo. At the same time I understand clients concerns. What I do, is send a first message with my WhatsApp that has my face photo. And I always have a quick video call before we meet.

Yes I actually find it reassuring that an escort wants some form of contact ahead of a meet up. It helps both parties get a sense of each other that no form of texting can do. A quick call or FaceTime works fine for me and i use it as much to reassure myself that I am Ok with the escort as much as he may be checking me out. Not foolproof but has helped me avoid some potentially disastrous meet ups.

Exactly! And very often (always in my hometown) I meet first for a drink. I am very choosy and there are so many little things that for me are show breakers. Once I was after a very good-looking young guy for a couple of months. At the end he accepted my invitation to come home for drinks. Nice guy, model material, smart, nice manners, all goes well until I notice he wears Todd's loafers with white socks. That was the end. We never had sex, never met again. My friends still laugh at me ?

Weren’t you going to remove the loafers and the offensive socks anyway, @The_Impeccable_G? Just asking ???‍♂️

Yes, but that's not the point. The magic was gone. I was no longer attracted to him.

[asianmusclebttm]

no, it's not normal and it's a terrible business practice!

Agreed!

I usually do this for a potential overnight. But I still don't have the client show their face... I mostly want them to see that I'm a real person. ? I think I'm too trusting? Haha. But after doing this career for some time, I've gotten a LOT better at trusting my gut instinct. Trustworthy clients are easy to spot out now ?

I’ll

I’m visiting Salt Lake City next week. I found an escort I might be interested in keeping me company. After a few questions from me, he asked me for a photo of myself and my stats. Is this normal? I asked him if that determined his rate. He replied no, it determines his interest. I stupidly sent my info and photo to which he replied “nice” BUT shouldn’t my business his interest?! Am I wrong here?

I’ll reply to this since I’m a SLC native and I surely have a definitive opinion on the matter. For me, I did not care of stats or a photo. Unless it’s for security reasons, screw that! A great provider can read between the lines through contact to see if it’s a good fit. Pictures are certainly not required and an unsolicited dick pick is of course discouraged. If your provider in question is shallow and picky, then I suppose by all means it is his discretion who hires him.. My policy was more so I am happy to meet and if you look like a truck, that’s fine by me. ?

So that is why you kept calling me “Big Mack”? I thought you were admiring my...ehm...size. But as it turns out I look like a truck!!! ????

One or two times in the past I have sent a G-rated photo or done a quick video connection. If some basic form of attraction (or at least, the lack of revulsion) is important to the provider, I would rather find out from a distance than when he is under me. Once or twice I have been with a guy who clearly wasn't into me; it's bad for my ego/self-image, and a waste of my time & $$$. Avoid it and we all are happier for it.

[Jimjaxon3]

I don’t send pics... but have been torn to do a video chat ... just to confirm their body photos I ask to get a photo with 3 finger or a thumbs up to verify but notorious get a fully clothed one.. I would like to hide my camera but then thought would that be bad form to verify them without letting them see me? I have used Snapchat before felt like it was harder for them to record

[CalTec]

I've received photos in the past without requesting them. I feel it's just a comfort level on the client's part; similar to a hookup on Grindr, etc. The obvious difference is the part where the client pays, but I feel for many it's just the norm to want to exchange photos.

It’s awful that you were with a guy who wasn’t into you. A professional escort shouldn’t give you that impression (even if he isn’t into you). Maybe he was having a bad day, it can happen because everyone has bad days at work sometimes. If I’m not feeling it with a client I’ll do my best to avoid giving them any impression I’m not into them. It hardly ever happens because there’s always something attractive you can find in someone and for me the fact that the client has chosen me is a turn on in itself and I use that to build the attraction.

I’ve never asked a client for their photos, I understand a lot of people are private and discreet.

This is words of a true professional. I also wish I knew of your existence last year as I had often traveled to London before our world got turned upside down by this virus. ?for the future.

Missed you on your visit to LA, but I'll be keeping an eye out for future visits whether it's your here or me out in your town.

[handiacefailure]

I won't respond back if they ask for a pic. One time someone had an ad on Craigslist and I responded and he asked for my pics and didn't have any of his own LOL.

Maybe it depends on the quality of the white socks encased in Tod’s supple Italian leather?

Absolutely not. Tod's + socks = faux pas

[The_Impeccable_G]

And since we are in sartorialist territory, loafers are better worn without. And white socks only in gym.

I actually stopped wearing them years ago. Only Smithwick now for casual and sports/workouts.
