savandwin, You have great photos but I see an opportunity for you to diversivise your collection. "We strive diligently to always present ourselves in person, deed and photo as a classy couple." If I counted correctly, of the 91 photos you show in your public section, there's one lonely photo of the two of you together. Your husband may be a classy, sexy, handsome and wonderful husband of many years but you've (inadvertently) chosen to hide your images as a couple. With your talent with a camera, that could easily be remedied. We've also discovered that a couple that stands close together helps to prove the man's real height when he tends to fudge things "a bit". We remember meeting a couple the first time and her first words were, "You look just like your pictures!", and we took it as a compliment. It seems to me that women deserve to see a good sampling of men's photos as well.

Picture day coming up soon; I'll be mindful of the left leg. Thank you the compliments they are genuinely appreciated. We both love photography and although he takes more of them than I do I am usually the artist voice saying "Let's try this" I also love taking photos of others and making sure every tag is tucked , hair is straight and I have your best side. I also go out of my mind when I see a lovely photo in a horribly mess kitchen etc.......unless that's a pile of panties on the floor lol. I always appreciate photos where people have taken a moment to make sure the background is as pleasant as the person being photographed. People that open our galleries are sure to be disappointed ; they don't get much naughtier but do contain our faces. We strive diligently to always present ourselves in person, deed and photo as a classy couple.......and I might add we seek the same.

RE from savandwin: "In reference to the comment on repetitive photos.........if you don't want to see 75 photos of my bottom don't look.......I'm simply giving you the option (smirk) as somewhere on your own post you mentioned that was a good idea lol." Kat was correct: my comment was not a complaint about quantity with variety (your gallery is mouth watering with a great variety). It was people who have quantity WITHOUT variety. For example, there is a shot of you laying on a table with a black table cloth and blue throw. You are face down, slightly propped up on your elbows with both legs bent at the knees. My beef is when someone also has the same shot with just the right leg up, another with just the left leg, another with the left leg at a 45 degree angle and the right leg up, another with the right leg at a 45 degree angle and the left leg up, and another with... I think you get the point...

Rick&Kat, thank you for the compliments; I'm flattered. I refuse to respond to profiles without photos and if I have to ask more than once to see face photos we're done! I'm a firm believer that if you're not showing you whole body or just graphic shots, that the rest of you is unfit for public viewing.....I could be wrong of course but that's the best part of swinging We get to pick and with 1000's of people on this site I don't waste my time. This to us is a sport and like any sport people chose to be involved in they invest in the equipment necessary to play....... nice photos and a well written profile ! You can't be an avid fisherman yet refuse to buy a rod and reel......free members; No thanks! Can't be bothered to fill in details ....so long. And for those who refuse to share face photos.....this isn't LA so you're not a rockstar, it isn't Washington so chances are you are you don't live in the White House; if you're hiding from the FBI we wouldn't want to meet you anyway and no matter how important you think you might be we have a private life as well just like every other member here......no photos at all implies your self importance/ego is far greater than your personality....we'll take a pass! Mrs Sav

Some of the pictures we have seen on profiles have confused us.

1) It never occured to you to turn the photo right side up? We really dont want to turn our head to look at a picture.

2) If you are a couple, why are we seeing self portraits in a mirror? You cant get your spouse to take a picture of you??

3) The graphic shots......hmmm......apparently, some of us think our play areas are better looking than thay really are. We have used the term "whoaaaa" when we saw some of them.

We decided to use the best asset we had between us for our profile photo. Trust me, her boobs are more attractive than his.

In reference to the comment on repetitive photos.........if you don't want to see 75 photos of my bottom don't look.......I'm simply giving you the option (smirk) as somewhere on your own post you mentioned that was a good idea lol.
I too handle ALL dealings with the profile, photos and emails....why are there so many of him and merely a dozen or so of him......simply he always has the camera and he doesn't own enough sexy outfits to open his own store. Our private gallery contains equal photos of both of us and if we email someone we always grant access immediately and expect the same in return.

Our main pic is of just me and I almost exclusively handle our profile. I wrote it w/ his input. I loaded the pics. I arranged them. I send out and respond to most of the emails. It's just the way we do it. As to why it's just me in the main pic and why there is only one ~ as good a job as SLS has done w/ making it difficult to "lift" pics from here, it's not difficult to do from public pics. I'm sure that it can be done from private pics, but there's nothing to it from public pics. I'm not crazy about pics w/ faces blurred out. I understand why people do it, but aesthetically, it doesn't work for me and I don't want those in our profile, so clear face pictures are private and we're more than happy to open them. If someone isn't interested enough to ask to see them, they probably aren't that interested anyway.

I have other details about pix that are different enough to warrant a separate post. PICTURES MATCHING THE PROFILE Why do so many COUPLES have pictures of just the female half of the couple as the MAIN profile picture? (Although I have seen a couple of profiles where it is just the male as the main pic.) I am never sure if it is just because it is the man maintaining the profile (as mentioned here in this thread) or if the male is embarrassed of himself. If you are advertising as a couple, then SHOW the couple; not just as one of the other pictures, but as your MAIN picture. This is even worse when NONE of the pictures show the man. Generally speaking, I will admit that women are more attractive to look at that men (again: GENERALLY speaking) - I get agreement on this from straight women and even some gay men. But if there are NO pictures of the man, then to me this is suspect. TOO MANY REPETITIVE PHOTOS It is one thing if you have a lot of photos in your profile. But do some editing. We don't need to see 14 slight variations of the same shot. If you did a photo session, we don't need to see EVERY SHOT from the session. OK, stepping off my soapbox now...

Crap; I had a whole post written and then lost it. After reading this thread, it seems like there is a black or white viewpoint being expressed - what about a middle ground? Our Public pictures show two vanilla shots of us as a couple along with vanilla and not-so-vanilla pix of each of us solo. There is some mild nudity in the shots of Mrs SKE, but a couple are to show her ink (which captures some people's attention) and some are just sexy. But the only thing showing is her butt and there aren't any explicit shots (you really can't do that in Public pix anyways). We also have a Personal photo gallery. In there are explicit shots including a "gyno-cam" view of the Mrs when she was EXTREMELY aroused as well as explicit shots of us in action. While I (the husband in case you haven't figured that out) do most of the work for us on SLS, the Mrs is aware of what is on here and participates in the details. I just happen to be the more pro-active one of our partnership. We know that not everyone can have their faces posted for all to see. For us, we decided that if anyone we knew saw us on here, than either A) they are on here for the same reason or B) they went looking for something that they weren't prepared for what they found. I do not go telling my mother about this, but if she found it and was upset by it, then she shouldn't have been looking! That is just our take - everyone is free to make their own decisions. The way I look at it, general face pictures should either be in your Public profile (if you are comfortable with that) or in your Private profile if discretion is required on your part. It is okay to have racy pictures in your Personal profile (and it is up to the individual/couple to decide how racy of pictures your want to post). When contacted by someone, I generally will give them access to our Personal photos and tell them straight out that they can look of they want to. If that is not what you want to see, then don't look - I am simply giving you the option. As I mentioned above, Mrs SKE knows what pictures are on our profile - she's even taken a couple of them herself. Also, she likes looking at pictures of naked men, cocks and close-ups of cocks in pussies. We know that not every woman likes to see this, and generally speaking, yes; men are more visual than women. but that does not mean that NO women like to look at pictures.

Not only do many men post porn or similar photos, when asked to produce a few nice pictures of themselves, they don't have any ready. We often get the "cell phone in a mirror" type photos. Sometimes just coming across in photos as friendly, self assured, and respectful is all that's needed to get people's interest. The same for women. A couple we met recently put it this way, "After the 27th photo of her breasts, we knew what they looked like". For those photographically challenged, a few that your mom would like to look at do the trick. For those of you with creative urges, go for it!
