I was definently looking forward to reviewing MattsModels.com! I'd flipped through the free area a few times, checking out the regularly refreshed free pics page of new and updated models, and was anxious to see these hotties in the buff. The reputation that precedes this site is also enough to make any fan of amateur models curious. Matt, your photographer and host, bills himself as "The King of Anti-Glam." True to his word, you will not find professional, made-up models here. This site is strictly amateur. Matt personally auditions every model on the site, snaps every photo you see, and maintains a level of realism on his site that is the exception to the rule nowadays.
Navigation through the site is very easy. The menu frame on the left has all the links you will need in addition to a handy dandy search feature. The models are arranged chronologically and alphabetically and each model's complete set of galleries is provided on her index page. This is the way I like it! Now, not to be completely nit-picky, but I wouldn't have minded to see the galleries also listed categorically. But if I had to choose between organization by model or category, I'll personally choose model every time. Browsing the entire archive is no problem and it's easy to skip from his very first shoot in 1999 all the way up to the present. Very high marks for simplicity of navigation.
Although all the pictures are exclusive, and most of the women you will see are completely new to the modeling scene, there are a few familiar faces in the crowd. In particular, I found it very entertaining to see such names as Aria Giovanni and Sydney Moon, regulars on the more glammed-up sites, photographed here sans makeup and airbrushing. Let me tell you, it's a relief to see they're still gorgeous in their natural state! The picture quality is good and the size tends to vary between 600x800 and 800x1000 (with most of the newer sets being larger). Most of the galleries are softcore stripteases down to some finger play with a few toys thrown in here and there. The scenes can get a bit repetitive but that just makes me grateful there are so many women to choose from. Each model has her own page with thumbnailed links to all of her galleries in addition to a short bio. These bios are very interesting to read. They were written by Matt and he doesn't try to hide it. You're not going to find any fake "Mmm, I just love to suck cock and have warm cum drip all over my face." Nope! This is the real deal. Matt discusses how he met the model, what she was like to work with, and a few brief tidbits about her personal life. It may kill some of the fantasy but I find these much more interesting.
The video archive and liveshow recaps were fun to browse through. The recaps are much better quality than the videos (My goodness I could watch these forever! I highly recommend Aria's liveshow recap #3...Her philosophy on men's balls is fascinating). The audition videos are also worth checking out. Here you have the opportunity to view and vote on potential models o' Matt. It's a nice way to meet up and comers and see a few more boobies.
Aside from the picture and video content, there are a few extra sections, as well. You'll find photo submissions, promo pics, a video store, a calendar, user forum and a couple of leased feeds. There's also a big selection of behind the scenes videos and pics. From the looks of things, Matt keeps his models happy and they seem to genuinely have a good time when they shoot with him.
I truly enjoyed this site. The models are fresh and beautiful and are portrayed as friendly, normal women who you might want to be friends with (before you sleep with them :). The volume of photo archives is impressive and the quality is befitting a more professionally run amateur site. I applaud Matt for maintaining an amateur theme without succumbing to the temptation to sacrifice photo and design quality. The ease of navigation, good update schedule and reasonable pricing allow me to highly recommend Matt's Models.

The King of Anti-Glam has officially gone hardcore! Well, that may be overstating things a bit but sex has arrived at MattsModels.com and it's gooood. You'll currently find 3 hardcore videos on the site. I really hope he continues to expand in this direction. It's difficult to find good quality, exclusive, hardcore porn that still qualifies as amateur. I feel that this addition really rounds out the site. This was a big step and I'm certain it will please many fans.
The picture count jumped from 88,000 to almost 104,000 which is quite substantial. The video count also increased from 250 to approximately 350. This is one large site and considering that it's all exclusive, it just knocks my socks off. I'm going to increase my updates, value and price scores slightly (after having viewed so many other sites I feel this increase is well-deserved) but quantity will remain the same since I've already given the maximum there. If the hardcore section continues to grow I'll certainly be increasing my entertainment score in the future. For now, Matt's Models remains an awesome site, deserving of a look by any amateur fan.
Score increased from 90.3 to 90.8.

Matt just keeps on kicking ass with his impressive collection of hot amateur babes! The hardcore section has grown somewhat from three videos to sixteen. That's still not huge but it's an improvement. The total picture count has grown from 104,000 to 123,000 and the number of videos has increased from 350 to 475. That's just a great sized collection of quality exclusive material. Looking around the site, it looks like not much else has changed since our last visit and that's fine with me. The name of the game is consistancy and Matt consistantly provides an entertaining experience for all fans of exclusive amateur content. I'm leaving my scores as is since this site remains a really great join.
Score remains at 90.8.

Question: How do you improve on a site with such high quality original content? Answer: Redesign! Matt's reworked his entire site. The look is very similar to as it was, it's just a touch cleaner with some additional functions. It feels more up to date, for sure. He's also updating more often with something new added almost daily. The frequent updates have allowed the site to grow to over 150,000 photos and 542 videos. Very, very impressive. Other changes include full-scene downloads for the newer videos, consistant wmv and mov video options, and the addition of a photo journal that includes real accounts of Matt's photo and video shoots. I love it all! It's really awesome that Matt keeps working to improve his site. I haven't even given you the best news yet. Matt now offers readers of TBP a special join price of just $15 a month. I can't think of another site with this caliber of original content at such an amazing price. This is an excellent site and now truly a must join for amateur fans.
Score increased from 90.8 to 91.5.
