Pros: |
Highly professional glamour photography with extremely attractive and experienced models. Settings are designed to highlight the model and are generally beautiful. There don't seem to be any tacky motel rooms, for example.
Models are almost exclusively Russian and Ukrainian and typically slender and very fit. Bodies are apparently all natural and accessories very minimal.
Some of the models have more than 100 galleries/films. Updates occur every two days. Galleries tend to be 60-100+ images. Recent galleries are available as zips in 4000px, 2000px and 1200px. Much older galleries are largely available in 2000x and 1200px. There are currently about 400,000 images.
Videos are available up to 1920 x 1080. Videos are sorted as Explicit, Lifestyle and Sensual. There are currently about 800 videos. |
Cons: |
MPLStudios is more likely than most sites to offer familiar models under unfamiliar names. If you're a collector, this requires some research. For example, Monika Dee is a familiar and welcome MetArt model and is known as Kaitlin at MPLStudios.
Zipped galleries are named with 8 digits. No photographer, no title. On the website the galleries include that information but it does not transfer to files.
There are no customer comments. IMO, this is a mixed bag. The comments can be helpful at times but they can also encourage bickering and/or snotty comments about pubic hair.
Biographical information is minimal. Almost nonexistent, in fact, other than debut age, nationality, and breast size.
Models are almost exclusively slender white girls. That happens to be my type, so not always a con. |
Bottom Line: |
I'm a great fan of glam erotica and for many years my loyalty has been to one website & family of websites. However, over the last few years that source has lost its, er, glamour for me. A few of the photographers with long histories have apparently quit trying. It's not unusual for one of them to take a beautiful woman (and they are, for the most part, beautiful) out to a rocky ledge or a lilac farm and put her through the same series of gymnastics over and over, without venturing into new territory. There are some long-standing photographers who take their art seriously, and these are most likely to get hammered in comments especially if they're not explicit enough. My personal taste is for natural-looking positions, so feet behind the ears so we can see her anus has limited appeal especially when it's repetitive.
That particular website has at least four updates every single day, which means they need a lot of material and the glory days of a boundless supply of models seems to be gone. A lot of the models are simply decent-looking women willing to take their clothes off for the camera. It feels like the webmaster is throwing images against the wall to see what sticks. Photographers often rely on quantity over quality and I frankly tire of shabby motel rooms.
True debut models at MPLStudios are rare these days and most have a solid track record with lots of experience either here or at other glamour sites. They are, virtually without exception, drop-dead gorgeous and the settings, whether indoors or out are likewise. MPLStudios takes models to glamorous locations, singly or in groups and spends time with them in those locations.
Rather than a lot of different (or indifferent) models, the website focuses on a smaller cast. Which means, for instance, that I recently sorted through more than 4,000 images of Lana Lane to select material for my personal screen savers. This was not a painful process.
Once upon a time, Digital Desire exhibited this level of professionalism and had seemingly cornered the market on knock-down, drag-out beauties. That was due to the experience, professionalism and reputation of J. Stephen Hicks. After his untimely death in 2013 all that was lost. MPLStudios feels to me like it's filling that gap.
Webmaster is very responsive. |
