Screen stills? You think so? I don't. I think that they are photo sets that go along with, but are separate from the vids. They don't give the appearance of screen stills to me.
I would compare them to the photosets that you see at Pix & Video or One By Day - both of those sites have vids that go along with the photo sets, but the photo sets are not screen stills. For comparison, there are bonus sites to Pix & Video where they do have screen still sets - which look quite different - and much lower quality.

From what I can gather is these shoots are the same clothes and scenes from the movies that get updated later as videos. They are shoots and are good quality but they were shot during the video shoot for sure. The locations are the same as the video as well as the content. Therefore, the update that happens first is the photo shoot of the movie scene to come. For example, the scene shows the model pouring orange juice on herself and she does this in the same location and at the same time during the video. Therefore, these shoots are happening at the same time. Hope that clears things up as to what I mean. What I mean by exclusive photo sets, are outfits and locations that are available outside of an accompanying video as well. Most sites do this now as their only photo shoots but I also like content that is available seperatly and can also not be seen in the video already. Plus, do you really think they would shoot two seperate shoots of the model in the same outfit and location? Meaning that, these 2 shoots happened at a seperate time?

Given that their vids have natural sound and don't have the sound of clicking cameras or directors, I think that "yes, they do the vid and photo shoot separately - same location & outfits - I'm sure they have dupes when there's messiness involved." If there's anyone here that knows more the methodology of doing these kind of photo/vid shoots, they ought to chime in.

You could be right, I'm not a professional photographer or director so I have no clue. I'll change my wording in this review to make it more clearer to others. Thanks for the feedback.

Nice review GCode, just don't get those model names too embedded in your brain. This site along with its sister sites, Sapphic Erotica and Only Cuties has a very odd, different naming system than nearly all other sites. Not for sure if anyone had mentioned it, but you can usually go to euro babe index and put the name in that you know them by and they will list all of her aliases.
On the discussion of stills or photos. There are a couple of ways to tell the difference. I know this from being a member at Give Me Pink off and on for a couple of years now. They offer stills, photos and video for each set.
Here is how you can tell if it is a still or picture. Look late in the sets for the masturbation ones. If those were stills you could see a slight motion blur around the girl's hand/toy/fingers. A good site to see how this works is ALS Scan. They have the Photoshoot videos, where a videographer films while the photographer takes pictures.
These border on major boredom, though the girl will have a dildo in her, she will be sitting there, talking and laughing. Then the photographer says, "Ready" she closes her eyes and opens her mouth like she is moaning. I think this is a pretty normal practice for Euro models, same setting/outfit for pictures and videos.
Just look for the motion blur. Hope that was clear. You have a whole world of Euro models out there now!

Yeah I suppose I never really looked in to the picture's too much because the outfits and locations were the same, plus the content. However, these pictures are good for some I suppose but I still see them as basically screen caps of the video even though they weren't shot at the same time. I suppose I just like seperate photo sets with different locations and outfits that are not basically on video already. Plus, I tend to see this trend on most sites more and more and it's quite annoying to me :( It is what it is though, I know I don't like it so I'll keep seeing this as a con, but I do know that maybe some might not watch vids much and then I suppose these pic sets must be fine. However, as a lover of both, I usually start by looking at photo sets then videos, and it almost seems like a spoiler for the video to come (at least to me). So when these sets are usually like this, I don't even look at them because I want the video to be somewhat of a surprise. I'm probably in the minority in thinking about it this way, because of so many sites doing it like this, but that does not mean I can't mention it, ya know? (maybe it will help others who think like me, I guess). Thanks for the input on the review about the names being different and how to tell the actual difference between a still and a seperate shoot.

Gcode,
What you are seeing is most likely because the sites with photo shoots and videos in the same setting and clothes are exclusive to their site. I'm not positive on how sites go about booking these models, if it is an per hour basis or per shoot basis. I know that the site ATK Premium has a lot of behind of the scenes videos that are actually pretty good about explaining how they do their shoots. The model could have say 5 outfits there, usually brought from their own closets/homes and they in turn will shoot 5 different sets, one for each outfit. I've seen Eve Angel complain several times that her members on her old site were wanting new outfits in every set. A problem for her since she had over 250 sets on that site. She was really joking about it more than anything, even saying she had started making her own clothes and jewelry since the stores didn't have anything different than what she already had.
I might be able to help in one way and that is to say don't necessarily look for sites that have 100% exclusive content. This will get you more photo sets that are in different outfits than the videos. Take a look sometime at Eve Angel's old site. Every outfit and setting had a photo set and video set. Where as on say Twistys, I don't think any of her videos have the same outfits as her picture sets on there. And they have 53 picture sets and 10 videos of her, but none are the same outfit/setting.
There is a downfall to exclusive content and it goes into cost for the site more than anything. I think the reason that Panther and I responded to the exclusive part is because we are probably using the word differently than you are. Generally speaking when you see exclusive in porn it means that the content cannot be seen on any other site. If you are still interested in Twistys, based on wanting different outfits from set to set, it could be your best bet of all sites.

That's what I'm talking about exactly though, most sites could easily take the other 4 of the 5 (or at least one more) outfits they bring/provide and shoot them for seperate shoots and still remain exclusive. Then, there will not be the same basic scene played on photo and on the videos for every single update. I mean, I understand that after so many shoots, you can only have so many 'looks' until they get repetitive but it really adds to a site. And even on this site plus many others, I'm just looking for like 1 or 2 different sets that are different in appearance to their already shot video content. As I am going to the sites I'm on now and my old photo content, I am noticing that less are the 'real' screen caps I was describing earlier that I thought they were but I have to really pay close attention to detail to tell otherwise (plus the fact of no direction and so on on the video). Twisty's is on my next site to join because I noticed they have so many sets and videos, this is great news. As for your response about looking for sites that are not all exclusive have photos, this is why I think most sites are suffering because they can easily provide decent updates of photos in different locations and outfits. But I do see your point, I suppose it's just easier to go to like teen dreams and just get a butt load of non exclusive photos if you want em. Thanks for the responses and tips, I've definitely been swayed in to twisty's next from your input :)
