There is no need for an escort when working with reputable photographers who have good reputations. UNLESS your name is fashion photographer... he doesn't trust himself alone with models.. He doesn't know what he would do if he was alone with one... so to keep you safe.. he tells you to bring an escort.
But what he doesn't tell you is that he is going to drug him/her and take him out then do unspeakable things to you while your escort lay unconscious.

There was a time a photographer asked me my schedule so he could plan the shoot.
I told him (and it included days I could get a ride from my father only, he always comes with me)
"Oh, you don't need to bring him, or even tell him, I can come pick you up"
"No, I always bring my father with me to shoots for safety and seeing as I'm a minor, he'd need to sign a release form."
"I don't use release forms. I only give you a release form if I plan on using it eventually and I haven't seen the pics yet so I don't know if I'm going to use them. Waste of paper. Seriously, I can pick you up"
Something along the lines of that.
We decided not to work with him afterwards.
On a funny note. A friend of mine things bringing as escort involves the use of escort services, smh lol

I encourage my models to bring several knights as escorts and to come packing with all sorts of Medieval weapons.
. .I also tell them a Chasity belt is not a bad idea either, because i cannot be trusted. I have some awesome Chasity belt close ups if anyone is interested. One knight should be enough, if he is good enough.
Chastity belts are overrated, and easily circumvented. An escort with honor is the only safe way to go.

If I felt the need to bring an escort for my protection, they'd have to be more skilled than I am at kicking ass. I have experience in 7 martial arts. There are very few people that are more able than I am that I'd be open to asking... and most, if not all, are female.
If someone uses a gun, I'm probably not going to get far anyway... but neither is your standard escort.
If I'm locked in a tower, I think it's safer just to count on myself to get out of it. I know how to fall.  and based on the picture, you already have a ladder.
