If you’re listing on AdultWork or any similar platform, your portfolio isn’t just a collection of pictures and a short description-it’s your first and only chance to make someone stop scrolling and say, "I want to meet this person." Most profiles get ignored because they look like every other one. The difference between a profile that gets 5 messages and one that gets 50 isn’t luck. It’s how you present yourself.
People aren’t looking for perfect skin or the most expensive lingerie. They’re looking for authenticity, clarity, and a sense of who you are. A strong portfolio answers three questions before the first message is sent: Are you real? Do we vibe? and Is this worth my time? If your profile doesn’t answer those fast, you’re lost in the noise.
Don’t post 50 photos. Post 8-12 that show range, mood, and personality. Too many photos look desperate. Too few look lazy.
Avoid group photos, photos with other escorts, or anything that looks like it came from a stock site. If you’re using a photographer, make sure they’ve worked with escorts before. Ask to see their portfolio. Bad lighting, weird angles, or awkward poses ruin even the most attractive person.
Most bios sound like they were copied from a template: "I’m fun, friendly, and love to please." That’s not a bio. That’s a filler line.
Your bio should feel like a conversation you’d have over coffee. Start with who you are, not what you do. Say something like:
"I’m a 28-year-old from Manchester who spends weekends hiking in the Peak District and cooking Thai food that makes my friends beg for seconds. I don’t do clichés-no "babe," no "lady," no "private sessions only." I’m here because I enjoy connecting with people who treat me like a real person. Let’s talk before we meet."
That’s not about selling a service. That’s about inviting someone in. Mention hobbies, quirks, or values. Do you love old movies? Hate small talk? Speak three languages? That’s the stuff people remember.
Never say "I’m 100% clean" or "no exceptions." It sounds defensive. Instead, say: "I get tested regularly and always share my latest results before meeting." That’s factual, calm, and professional.
And never, ever use emojis in your bio. Not even one. It makes you look like you’re trying too hard.
People can smell desperation from a mile away. The goal isn’t to convince them you’re the best. It’s to make them feel like they already want to meet you.
Here’s how:
Don’t list prices in your bio. Put them in your message reply or profile settings. Listing prices upfront turns people off. They’ll assume you’re cheap or inexperienced. Let them ask. Then respond with confidence: "My rate is £150/hour for in-call sessions. I do 2-hour minimums." Simple. Direct. No fluff.
Here’s a real profile that got 23 inquiries in two weeks:
Name: Sophie
Location: Brighton
Availability: Wed-Sat, 6pm-11pm
Services: Dinner dates, massage, cuddling, conversation
Bio: "I’m Sophie. I run a small art studio in Brighton and spend my Sundays painting in the garden. I don’t do one-night stands-I’m looking for people who want to talk, laugh, and relax. I love wine, bad rom-coms, and long walks. My rate is £180/hour. I’m tested monthly and happy to share results. Let me know what you’re looking for-I’d love to hear from you."
Why it worked: It felt personal. It set boundaries. It didn’t beg. It didn’t exaggerate. It invited.
Your portfolio isn’t a one-time project. It’s a living profile. Every three months, ask yourself:
If the answer to any of those is "no," update it. A fresh photo, a tweaked bio, or a new availability window can bring in new interest-even if nothing else changed.
The best portfolios don’t scream "hire me." They whisper, "Come closer. Let’s talk."
Aim for 8-12 high-quality photos. Too few looks incomplete. Too many overwhelms and dilutes impact. Focus on variety: one headshot, one full-body, one casual, one in lingerie, one outdoor, and one lifestyle shot. Quality matters more than quantity.
Using your real name or a variation of it builds trust. Pseudonyms like "LuckyStar" or "QueenBee" feel impersonal and can raise suspicion. Choose a name you’re comfortable with-something simple, pronounceable, and authentic. It helps clients feel like they’re connecting with a real person, not a persona.
It’s better not to. Listing prices upfront can turn people off or make you seem inexperienced. Instead, state your rate in your reply to inquiries. For example: "My rate is £160/hour for in-call sessions." This keeps the conversation open and lets you tailor your response based on the client’s tone and intent.
Update your profile every 2-3 months. Change your photos if they look outdated. Refresh your bio if your availability, services, or vibe has shifted. Even small updates-like adding a new hobby or changing your hours-can boost visibility and attract new clients.
Trying to be everything to everyone. If your photos are overly sexualized, your bio is vague, and you’re not clear about boundaries, you’ll attract the wrong people-and waste time filtering them out. Focus on being clear, authentic, and selective. The right clients will find you.
