This site features the work of Chuck Stevens, where he offers erotic bondage, fetish, and nude photography with lovely women in various states of bondage.
Our Price:
$12.95
(recurs at $9.95/mo)Up for review today is Bondage USA. "What type of content can we see?," you might ask. Believe it or not, they offer bondage material here, mostly of solo women tied up in erotic poses. Oddly enough, they generally get free eventually and can masturbate with some toys as well, which I wasn't expecting. I wouldn't call it a very hardcore BDSM site here, but you'll get some light tying up, sexy girls, erotic photography, and a little fun. Membership will run you just $13 for the first month, and that even drops to $10 a month after that. Nice price!
Glimpses of great photography.
I wouldn't say that the whole site is full of awesome photography, but there are some sets and images that are absolute stunners. When they get creative with the lighting, and you get a sexy girl in a bit of a helpless position, some great things can happen here. If nothing else, the photography is unique, and I liked what I saw.
Quality is pretty good.
My main complaint with the quality is that I'd like an even larger size option. Otherwise, the photos usually look great, and are well-lit and colorful overall. They have some fun with photographic tricks to put things in or out of focus at times, and whatever is in focus looks quite sharp overall.
The price is really nice here, and I feel they took the size and everything into consideration when setting it.
Offering some of the images as actual prints is a nice touch in case you want some of these beauties on your wall.
No videos.
There's not a single video here unfortunately, which may seal the deal for some. Granted, they're a photography site here, but even some behind the scenes videos would help those video freaks (like me) out there.
Pretty small site.
Without videos, their 135 photo galleries are left to stand on their own, and that's just not a lot of content. You could probably breeze through the site in a month and find your favorites, and then what? Updates are a little slower than usual, so you're stuck waiting around.
No model or scene info.
They have a whole models section where you're supposed to "meet the models," but all they give you is her name, a thumbnail, and a link to her sets (with dates). I'd love to see model bios here since it seems like they shoot everything themselves. The same goes for a scene description, of which there is none, which would help give the site more personality.
The updates come fairly regularly, but can be slower than weekly at times. Without videos, and with a small site, the slow updates are that much more disappointing.
I was surprised to see only one picture size available. Offering what they have now, plus a larger version, would be my preference.
Depending which links you click, you can find yourself out stuck in the tour again instead of the member's area. Plus, the tour offers some links that the member's area doesn't, which is odd.
The zip files are almost hidden. They don't have them on the gallery page at all for some reason, just on the main browsing page.
Some great photographs, but the site and size hold them back.
The photography here is great at times, and should be admired if you like this kind of stuff. I like the light bondage theme mixed with the great colors, lighting, and photography. However, the site is small, updates can be a bit slow, there are no videos, the site is quite plain, and there aren't many extras here. They do what they know how to do really well (photography), but the rest is pretty sub-par. Come for the pictures, and hopefully the other stuff doesn't get in the way too much for you.
