Here is my confirmation reply from a model I am shooting with tomorrow.

"Hi John. yes we're on for tomarrow. I lost your phone number, so if you could please massage me tomarrow I would appreciate it. See you tomarrow!"

Now, if I start massaging her when she gets here would that be considered creepy?

In fairness to you, John, she has specifically requested you massage her, and you have in writing... print it off and show it to her when she arrives. Greet her with the message in one hand and the oil in the other. LOL

If you do NOT massage her, despite her expressed demand, you would not be a gentleman and you would be unprofessional.

I would say no...after all, she asked you to do it!  I'm just wondering about tomarrow...is she saying to massage her to her marrow or what?

No because she's clearly wanting the massage.

But would it be appropriate to massage the escort as well?  Or not?

So!?!? She is a model not a rocket scientist.

Just text her the damn phone number in case she needs help figuring out what you meant by "turn right" or "rurn left" in your directions.

I don't know. I can't find anyone dumb enough to let me put my hands on them.

Well, we better shoot soon. I'm moving to California on the 29th. But I'm coming back for the meet & greet. Maybe we could shoot before the festivities?

Hmmmm.... I hear alcohol lowers the IQ temporarily, or in some cases... permanently. Pass me the botle! hahaha.

Moving to CA! No way! That's unacceptable! I'd say I would, but Monday my wisdom teeth come out. 2 out of 3 are impacted, so it's not going to be pretty. lol. Around the time of the meet n greet would be better.

Yeah, unfortunately. This is an opportunity for me that I really cannot pass up. Someone finally hired me on to be their staff photographer. Granted, they're not hiring me to shoot pictures of beautiful ladies. Dog brushes, choke chains, collars, etc instead. But there are a lot of other benefits that go along with the job. Can't pass it up.

Ok. The consensus is to give her a massage as requested. I'm doing my tongue excercises now.
