Hi @Elicia_Deva
Welcome.
Slightly confused by your post. as Airbnb announced widely (I think back in the autumn) that they were introducing a change that hosts would only see a guest photo upon booking. They emailed all hosts, promoted the change on their website and in their host newsletter.
I host in a similar situation to you and am happy not to see the guest photo until they book.
Never had to cancel a booking in over 3.5 years and hundreds of guests because a guy is ‘creepy’.
