Using your own photos for your massage website is a great idea. (Remember When Good Websites Go Bad?)
But when you're putting your own pictures out there, it's a good idea to watermark them so that others can't use and claim them as their own.
What is a watermark? It's a recognizable image or pattern used to identify authenticity.
While you can create your own watermarks in Photoshop or Paint.net (I sense a video tutorial on this coming soon!), there's also several sites where you can watermark your images for free. Below are two I use often.

Quick & easy!
Here's a photo that I have watermarked as an example.
