For me, the argument of pro pics vs selfies is the same as fake photos vs real photos. Don't get me wrong, the pro pics of a girl are nice and I like seeing some. I just don't put much stock in them because there is usually a lot of work done to enhance the picture. They don't give me a feel for what she'll actually look like. Selfies do a much better job of that. Pro pics somewhat set a guy up for disappointment where as selfies allow his expectations not to run wild. I personally prefer a mixture.

However, I agree with this poster, a mix is best if you are going to use pro pics. Pro pics, IMHO, should be used as a marketing tool to catch the eye of a potential client. But you need some "not so flattering" non pro pics, selfies, if you will.
I've learned not to expect what I see in the pro pics to show up at the door of a provider. Often times, the provider has no makeup, look frazzled, and not quiet the vision of prefection in the pro pic. I like to see at least one or two non-pro pics in the mix.
