Portraits that match the woman who arrives at your door

First, identity. The companion meets the desk in person and her document is read, confirming her name and that she is 18 or over. Second, the face: every photograph she proposes is held up beside her, one at a time, and any that could mislead is put aside. Third, the numbers: the age and height printed on her profile come from that same meeting, not from a form. Only then is the profile written and published.

Glamour and lifestyle photography: evening dresses, city backdrops, faces gently softened so nobody is recognised on the street. Nothing on this site is explicit, and nothing shows nudity. Each picture is chosen or approved by the companion before it appears, and none is stock, borrowed or generated by software.

Allowed: exposure, colour, contrast, cropping, and compression so the page loads fast over a mobile signal. A blemish that would be gone within a week may be softened. Refused: any change to the shape of a face or figure, any change to her apparent age, a backdrop she has never stood in front of, and any picture of one woman shown under another woman's name.

Portraits are reviewed on a rolling cycle, and at once whenever a companion changes her hair or her style. A set that has drifted is retired rather than defended. Philippa records the month in which each set was last compared with the companion, and gives you that month if you ask before booking.

Each companion decides which of her photographs appear. One message from her takes down a single picture or her whole profile, with no reason required and no delay. When a companion leaves, her pictures are deleted from the site, never archived for reuse.

Tell her at the door and do not begin the evening. She leaves, you owe nothing, and Philippa would like to know that same night. A mismatch is treated as a failure of this policy, not a misunderstanding, and the profile comes down until it has been checked again.
