If you're looking for beautiful, simple, erotic nude photography, then Figure Baby may be the place for you. I can appreciate content like this, but it's a pretty subjective thing, and I have to like the photographic style. They advertise all the standard items you'd look for on a site like this in the tour, such as high-resolution photos, zip files, regular updates, 100% exclusive content, etc. $18 a month gets you in the door, which isn't a bad place to start.
The goods:
- Unique, exclusive content. Like I said, everything is exclusive here as it's all shot by one guy. Since that's the case, of course he has his own style on things. I like the photos that he offers here, though it's not quite one of my favorite photography sites.
- Updates come often. A new photoset is put online every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday right now, which should help this site grow a bit.
- Pictures look good. They go all the way up to 2400x1600, and the guy knows what he's doing with a camera and accessories. Photos are clear, well balanced, and colorful (when necessary).
The bads:
- Small site. There are currently under 100 photo galleries online, and no videos. That doesn't make for a ton of content right now. The update schedule is decent, but even after a year, we'll be just over 200 photo galleries, which still isn't huge.
- No videos. Granted I'm sure he's a photographer and not a videographer, but I know a lot of people enjoy videos a lot more than photos. Even some behind the scenes stuff would help.
- Not much scene or model info. With a site like this, where he interacts personally with each and every model on the site, there's an opportunity to provide some nice info on everything. Unfortunately, the scene descriptions are pretty short, and there's no bio or info on the models at all.
Conclusion:
Figure Baby is off to an okay start, but it'll take some time to grow and mature a bit before it really competes out there. There are a lot of things missing, including model bios and videos in general, that hold them back. The photos are good enough, but the style wasn't quite my favorite (though it's good, and of course it could be different for you!). The consistent updates and growth should help out in the near term, and I'll be interested to see where things have headed at our next look at the site.
