What is a high class provider to you?

Throw shit at people and start inbreeding.

Maybe not classy, but aristocratic.

Oh and there is a third point. Learn about Prosecco. It goes great with desserts and looks and tastes like Champagne at a quarter of the price.

I also look for a woman that can carry on a good conversation.


I also agree that price charged doesn’t always equal “high quality” in providers. I have seen some high priced providers who were not worth the price.


PM me and I’ll recommend a provider that has offered some good advice to other providers. I don’t think she is a secret, but I haven’t seen her in quite a while and I want to get permission to share info.

There are amateurs & there are professionals. Many hobbyists choose professionals b/c upper class is the standard. Birds of a feather flock together. Upper class attracts upper class.

I may not be an oenophile, but I know what champagne I like to enjoy.

One comment based on one of the first posts: Most of us have a partner, husband, or kids. However, I don’t want to know about yours until I ask you about them. I realize that may come across as “objectifying” you. It really isn’t though. It’s just that for those few hours that we are together, I probably only want it to be about the two of us. Granted, real life will wander in and out of our conversations but let me take the lead on your and my personal life.

If you have an issue going on that will not allow you to focus on the two of us – then cancel and make up for it with a future discounted session. Don’t get me started on the serous HDH that I saw last year that had just been dumped by her boyfriend... I will not be happy that you have canceled but understand that it was the right thing to do. I will also be thrilled that I get to see you with a discount at some point in the future.

You really need to be able to hold an intelligent conversation about a wide range of topics. I think the phrase “well read” makes the point. As an example, there is a seriously attractive girl (think Victoria Secret model type) that travels throughout the US. She also has really good “technical” skills. However, her personality and communication skills keep her at $300 per hour. I realize that amount is higher than standard and many girls would be happy to get that rate. However, I can assure you she would easily be able to charge twice that if she were a complete package.

I know many folks have said to go watch how people act at places like the Four Seasons, et al. I am not sure I agree with that suggestion though as it is difficult to learn much just by watching people walk in and out of a lobby or chat with each other. If you are serious, I think a better strategy might be to have a higher initial hourly rate but then a discounted “dinner and desert” or “show and a nightcap” rate. That way you get to experience being in those situations versus just being a voyeur.

Finally, I would get professional quality photos shot. I realize that they are a lot of money. But, this whole gig we play is a fantasy and a lot of what causes us to decide to spend money with one person versus another is packaging and atmosphere. Frankly, the end result is the same whether it is a $25 crack hoe in a back alley or a $1,000 an hour sweetheart.

Just my two cents so take it for what it is worth.

The clothing end is a tough position.

Also, I think if I were on the front end of this odyssey that it is far better to have a limited number of really well constructed, well-fitting outfits than a pile of cheap stuff. As for the lingerie gig, I think most any decent outfits are good to go. Frankly, by the time most of us see that part of the outfit – we are really only interested in figuring out how to get them off.

Finding a mentor would be great. However, I suspect that finding a decent mentor is akin to finding a sugar daddy. Great if you can find one but few and far between.

Great comments by both if you, by the way!

Ahhh, that's why consignment shops are very good, at least for me.

Nothing says class like the creative use of rubber bands...
