As a former member of St Mackenzies I received a discount email offer for this site but after looking at the tour came to the conclusion there's not enough content to even justify a $15 subscription on it right now. Maybe when they've built up a couple of years worth of content it will come on to my radar.

That's a bit too small really, don't think I'd be willing to pay even $10 for photos that small. The high res photos I've seen elsewhere are 5760px long end. A lot of the sets look dark and shadowy and some of the pictures I looked at look a bit blurred at high resolution too. A lot of the sets only have 20 to 30 plus photos in them too.
I'm not sure it's even worth the effort to download them for free let alone pay $199 for it. Seems like these models are wasted on this site.

Thanks for this informative review. I very nearly signed up for this site around Black Friday weekend but backed out and went with a half price email promo for APD Nudes instead. It sounds like I would of got precisely nothing for my $10 at Stasy Q.
From what I can gather the Ultimate membership is something like $199 for a lifetime membership but I could be wrong.
Your review has convinced me the best thing to do with this site is download their photosets for free from a forum if buying a membership gets you access to nothing.

Good to hear that you got your money refunded without any hassle. I've declined one or two sites before when Verotel came up as the biller as I wasn't too sure about using them.

| Pros: |
Choice of CCBill or Epoch for payment processing.
Site online since 2003.
Good sized collection; 311 Models, 2468 photo sets (333,367 photos) & 759 movies.
Photo sets since 2011 come with downloadable zips in 3 different sizes; small 1280 px, medium 2000 px and large at least 3000 px. Between 2009 and 2011 the 2000 px is the largest on offer.
Newer videos (2011 onwards I think) fairly decent quality 1280 x 720 with 5k bitrate.
No background music in videos.
A paradise for stocking lovers.
Good download speeds.
No problem using my D/L manager (DTA)
Good file naming for zips (model name plus set number), videos only the newer ones have unique file names including the model name.
Advanced search engine covering dozens of categories although I'm not convinced it's always accurate.
Rate models and add to favourites. |
| Cons: |
Since 2017 the site is barely updating. 1 update in the whole of 2018, 2 in 2019, 4 in 2020 and 1 during my membership in January 2021.
The dates have been removed from the tour pages so you can't really tell if it's updating before signing up.
The bonus site Suburban Sluts adds little value as mostly low resolution pre 2004 content.
Pre 2009 photo sets max at 1024 px.
Older videos poor quality at 720 x 576 with 1k bitrate.
If you're not in to solo content not much else to see.
Too few outdoor sets.
Can become a bit repetitive.
No PU Discount. |
| Bottom Line: |
Suburban Amateurs is one of those sites that has been around for years and has always been kind of semi on my radar but since they used to charge a ridiculous $35 there always seemed to be something cheaper and better on offer so never got around to joining. Lately I noticed the price is now down to $24.95 and in addition there's something strange going on with CCBill's regional pricing from the UK when I change the price to GBP currency the price comes down to the equivalent of $19 so I signed up as it's the cheapest I've ever seen this site.
The site started out back in 2003 with the premise that these are British amateur models in solo striptease and masturbation photos and videos. Whilst it's true that you may find some genuine amateurs unique to this site particularly in the early years, over time they gradually started using more professional models. You can find many well known British and Czech models who have appeared on dozens of sites, names such as Abigail Toyne, Carla Cox, Cate Harrington, Charlie (a.k.a. Kloe Kane), Danielle Maye, Kacie James, Kayla Louise, Michelle Moist, Natalia Forrest & Sandra Sanchez to name a few. There are also some interesting finds of some models early in their career. The model named Kirsty H here is actually Sophie Dee before she had those horrible big fake tits and there's also a cute , petite, small breasted Asian girl named Koko Li who later morphed in to Tigerr Benson on DDF Busty with a massive pair of fake tits.
The vast majority of models are young and hot, aged from 18 to 20 something with only a handful of older ladies in their 30s and 40s. Whilst you might find the odd pair of fake tits here and there the vast majority look natural with a good variety of body types from slim to curvy. There's little ethnic diversity here, out of 311 models I only counted 7 or 8 with Black/Asian/Indian heritage. Make up and styling is minimal so in general they have that cute girl next door look. The content is about 98% solo striptease and masturbation with just a small number of lez, BJ, and B/G fuck scenes/picture sets.
The site enjoyed rapid growth in the early years updating 6 or 7 days a week from 2003 through to 2010 before tailing off to 5 days a week in 2010 then gradually down to 3, then 2 then 1 a week from 2014 to 2017 when it stopped updating regularly with only a handful of updates since then. So by the time the resolutions of the photos and videos improved in 2011 the site was already going into decline. The result of this is that around two thirds of the overall photo sets have a maximum resolution of 1024px.
Despite the amateur theme of the site the photography is for the most part of a good professional standard. There are a few amateurish sets though that look like they were shot by somebody different from the main photographer. As a lover of striptease content these photo sets really hit the mark for me with lots of sexy outfits, uniforms and especially stockings and heels. You often get 50 or more photos of tease before the clothes come off. Sets generally contain 120 to 160 photos. In many ways this site reminds me of Only Tease but with the added pay off of full nudity with masturbation and toy use. My only complaint would be the lack of variety in shoot locations. The majority of shoots take place in what I assume is the photographers house so you're constantly seeing the girls photographed in the same bedroom, same bathroom, same kitchen, same stairway etc. It would have been nice to see more outdoors sets.
If you like to hear girls talking dirty to you in a British accent as they tease you and strip out of their clothes before masturbating then the videos here might hit the mark for you. I enjoyed them to a point but after watching a few it started to get old rather quickly but then I'm more of a pictures guy. Average run time of the videos is around 15 minutes. One minor annoyance is that when you click on a video it starts playing automatically in your browser.
The navigation is simple and functional. You have the usual options of photos, videos and models with the option to sort them by most recent, most popular and name/title. There's also an A-Z model listing where you can click on the letter on the alphabet. Model info is limited to age, star sign and home town.
You get access to a bonus site called Suburban Sluts with 723 photo sets and 144 movies. I had a brief look around but I didn't find any photos bigger than 528 x 792 px or videos bigger than 352 x 288 so I didn't save anything.
Overall I really enjoyed the models and sexy teasing photo sets here but the glory days for this site were clearly 10 years or more ago so realistically can't score it more than a 79 today and that's probably being generous. |

I see they show the first page of preview thumbs in the tour but when you click to try and preview the next pages it just takes you to the sign up page so difficult to know if they go to full nudity from the preview.....a missed opportunity I think.
Anyway this site is on my list so no doubt I will get around to joining it one day when I'm in the mood for some home grown British talent.

Interesting looking site, I just took the tour and like the look of many of the models and the fact they seem to dress in sexy lingerie a lot...think i'll add this to my short list. Thanks for the review.

| Pros: |
PU/TBP discount.
Billing by Trustcharge, straightforward cancellation with immediate confirmation email.
Part of the Openlife network giving access to 10 different solo model sites.
Large collection for a single model site with 604 photo sets (43,000+ photos) and 335 videos.
A bit less than half the videos offer at least 720p hd with 79 of those also offering 1080p full hd.
The newer videos offer a choice of 7 different resolutions for both download and streaming.
Photo resolution fairly decent across the entire collection at 1280 x 1920 portrait and 1280 x 853 landscape.
Zip downloads for photos and a slide show feature for viewing online.
Good download speeds, I was getting around 4 MB/sec
Easy access to other network sites from a drop down menu with no further logging in required. |
| Cons: |
Watch out for the pre-checked cross sales on the sign up page.
An annoying select the picture captcha to log in, sometimes took me 3 or 4 attempts.
Site doesn't appear to be updating. No dates on any of the content so impossible to say when the site last updated but there's little change in the content count since TBP review of 2014.
No model interaction, not surprising since Sunny retired from Porn somewhere around 2013.
The oldest videos are very low resolution bordering on unwatchable.
Zip file names are just numbers.
Photo sets often have the pictures out of sequence, start out clothed, then nude, then the clothes are back on again. As a photo collector I find that kind of annoying. |
| Bottom Line: |
This site wasn't really on my radar but an email hit my inbox offering me the chance to sign up for a month for $5 so I couldn't really refuse that as Sunny Leone is one of those models whose photo sets I've always saved since I first came across her on DD Girls (old name for Digital Desire) back around 2002. Whilst there are no posting dates on any of the content here the copyright information on the photos suggests the content here goes as far back as 2001 and I would guess covers the entire span of her porn career up until she retired so you get to see her before and after the boob job. Although Sunny did a little boy/girl hardcore towards the end of her career you won't see any here, this site is 95% solo glamour content with a little lesbian content making up the rest. There is plenty of boy/girl content amongst the other sites in the network though.
The photo sets appear to be a mix of exclusive and non exclusive, I wouldn't like to guess what percentage of the content is exclusive. I recognised some sets I already had from now dead sites such as Babes.tv and ModFX Models but most of the photo sets I had not seen before.
The navigation is straightforward, you can browse either photos or videos and then select them by either recently added or all photos or all videos which sorts them into alphabetical order by the name of the shoot. You also have a drop down menu of categories allowing you to search for something more specific.
The newer videos on the site give you upto 7 different download and viewing options, 1080p, 720p, 540p, 480p, 360p, 240p, and 160p. The 1080p videos I downloaded came in at 1920x1080 and just under 7000 kbps and the 720p ones I downloaded were 1280x720 and between 2000 and 5000 kbps. Once you start to lose the hd videos you still have some fairly decent sd specs typically 960x544 @ 4000k. It's only when you get to the last 5 or 6 pages of the oldest videos that the quality really drops off a cliff, typically 640x368 with 653 kbps which is really not worth the effort. The newer hd videos did look superb though, I really enjoyed those, typically between 5 and 10 minutes long, the usual kind of thing you would expect from solo glamour content, lots of teasing and stripping from sexy outfits and lingerie often ending with some masturbation and toy play. Some videos had a musical backing track but not all, there were a couple of dirty talking videos that I really enjoyed.
This is a full list of the sites you get in the Openlife network with the amount of updates:
Sunny Leone: 604 photo sets 335 videos
Abbey Brooks: 8 photo sets 13 videos
Ashley Fires: 36 photo sets 93 videos
Bree Olson: 119 photo sets 163 videos
Cassandra Calogera: 25 photo sets 30 videos
Charmane Star: 38 photo sets 29 videos
Devon Lee: 10 photo sets 75 videos
Dylan Ryder: 17 photo sets 57 videos
Hanna Hilton: 48 photo sets 53 videos
Lane Sisters: 54 photo sets 136 videos
I can't be certain but I don't get the impression any of those sites are adding any new content these days. I only signed up for the Sunny Leone photo sets as I previously had access to most of the other sites listed there with my subscription to Aaliyah Love back in 2013. The odd thing is several of those sites seem to have lost a lot of their content since 2013, back then I saved over 70 photo sets from Dylan Ryder and now there are only 17 on the site, similarly with Cassandra Calogera,70 photo sets in 2013 and now only 25.
Anyway at the end of the day I got over 600 photo sets and a good bunch of hd videos of Sunny Leone for five bucks so I'm well happy but the score 78 reflects what is basically now just an archive collection. |

Drooler's Review
Thanks for a fine review. This looks like my kind of site but yes the organisation of the photo sets looks like a right mess and too much like hard work to sort out, i like my photo sets to start clothed and finish naked. If ever they reorganise the sets into a single zip download running in correct sequence i'd consider joining but not in its current format.

| Pros: |
TBP/PU Discount price of $17.
Billing by Epoch with no regional pricing.
Exclusive content.
High resolution photos and hd video.
Photos available in 2 sizes with zip downloads. (see also cons)
Multiple download options and streaming for videos. |
| Cons: |
The biggest con for me as a photo collector is the lack of a decent quality mid sized option around 2-3000px like you get on Met-Art. The largest size photos at 6000px have ridiculously large file sizes (often over 2GB for a single photo set) and the small option are only 800px portrait or 1200px landscape.
Coupled with the very large file sizes I found the download speeds much slower than I normally get. I can normally download a 1GB file in 3-4 minutes, here it was taking around 20 minutes.
Most photo sets don't have a single zip download, you have to download a separate zip for each page of thumbnails so usually 3 or 4 zips per photo set.
The file naming is not the best, often the 3 or 4 zips for one photo set can have completely different file names so if you don't amalgamate them as you download you can end up not knowing which zips belong to which photo sets. File names of videos are just a number so renaming needed. |
| Bottom Line: |
CONS CONTINUED.
Every photo has a thick black band running across the entire width of the bottom of the photo carrying the names of the company websites.
The videos have an enormous watermark, probably the biggest I've ever seen. I'm not exaggerating when I say it reaches from the left hand side to almost the centre of the screen and about a fifth of the way up the screen.
The site is not updating even though they try to create the illusion that they do by adding current dates to existing content on their updates page, a rather deceitful practise in my opinion.
No dates on the content apart from the fake recent dates on the fake updates page so I've no idea how long it is since the site last updated..
No file sizes listed.
The model interview videos are streaming only and I had trouble trying to watch them, start and stop every few seconds.
No advanced search feature but it's not a huge site so not a big issue.
BOTTOM LINE
Sweet Nature Nudes is a site featuring the work of photographer David Weisenbarger whose bigger and more established site is David Nudes. As the title suggests the site features naked girls photographed in outdoor settings. It's not the largest of sites with 52 models in 276 photo sets (approx 40,000 pictures) and 127 downloadable videos plus each model has a streaming interview video. When I first signed up to the site I was actually under the impression from the tour that the site was still updating but after about a week of my membership it became apparent that the so called updates were just sets already on the site with new dates added. The number of photo sets and videos that I counted on the site number less than quoted in the site facts in TBP review of 2013 so I would suggest nothing new has been added for some considerable time.
Most of the models are from the US and aged between 18 to mid 20s according to the model info provided. The main attraction at the site is an attractive blonde named Tatyana whom I believe I read somewhere is the girl friend or wife of the photographer. She has the bulk of the content here with 82 photo sets and 24 videos dedicated to her. The rest of the models generally have between 1 to 6 photo sets and a couple of videos each.
After logging in to the site you have 4 options to browse the content, “Latest Updates, Photos, Videos and Our Goddesses” If you click on photos or videos all you get is a small selection of those available. The updates page only lists the 100 most recent updates so the only way to browse the content to make sure you don't miss anything is via the model index “Our Goddesses” and go through all the models one by one to see all their content.
The photos and videos are all shot in outdoor locations and look visually stunning, the photographer here certainly knows what he is doing. At times you can feel like you are looking at photos from a travel magazine and can almost forget the reason you went to the site was to look at naked girls. These 6000px photos show so much detail you feel like you can almost count the blades of grass or pebbles on the beach where the model is posing. The girls are nearly always completely naked from the start of the photo sets, rarely any clothing to provide any tease or anticipation which is a negative for me. Although most of the girls are very attractive I have to admit I didn't find any of the content at all sexy or arousing, in fact I found a lot of the photo sets pretty repetitive and boring. This is definitely more art than porn.
When it comes to the videos they provide download options for every possible device you can think of from 1080p mp4s for pc to 3gp for mobile devices. The 1080p videos I downloaded had a bit rate of around 9000 kbps and looked great however the 720p mp4s I tried looked a bit pixilated or grainy so I think you'd definitely want to stick with the full hd here. The videos on these nude art photography sites usually bore the crap out of me and these were no exception, 20 minutes of watching a girl splash around in a pool and then lay on an inflatable sun bed almost sent me to sleep.
In summary whilst I can't deny that the photographer is clearly very talented at what he does and the content very high quality I just didn't get very excited over much of it and many of the cons I listed such as the enormous file sizes coupled with the slow download speeds, multiple zips per photo set and poor file naming just made it feel like hard work to download and organise it all. Probably just about worth the $17 just for the photo sets of Tatyana. |

Excellent review thanks, not sure i'd quite agree with the non-recommendation as a standalone site bearing in mind that if you do subscribe to Tania Spice you also get access to 8 bonus sites including LaZona which i assume are the same bunch of bonus sites you got with Pacinos Adventures.

Thanks for the review SteveO, she sure is cute but i wouldn't pay that for such a small amount of content. I generally don't go for solo model sites unless they're part of a network. The only solo site i've been to in the last couple of years was Real Peachez and that had nearly 6 years worth of content and i got that on a half price $15 deal.

It's nice to see a new review of Teen Dreams, I haven't had a membership here for something like 10 years. I keep getting email promos with a $9.95 join offer but not sure I trust that Purewebpower biller, seen one or two negative commments about them. Anyway I've gotten myself a prepaid card now so might take the plunge next time I get an offer email.

Oh that's different, I click on join and get a form requesting my bank account details to set up a direct debit. Never heard of this billing company webbilling. Don't think I'll be joining Teen Dreams anytime again soon. And yes I also see $29.99 or £19.99 (GBP) so the discount seems to have gone for me too.

I can't speak specifically for this site as I've never joined it but I have joined several other sites using the Epoch with Paypal option and never had any problem cancelling via the Epoch user interface. If for any reason you can't use the Epoch interface because you've lost your transaction id number for instance you always have the added protection that you can log into your paypal account and cancel the recurring subscription from there. Hope this helps.

This was a great site back in the day. I think it must have been somewhere around 2004 when I had a membership there and looking around the current model index I hardly recognise anyone that I didn't download back then. I suspect they haven't added any new content for many years but your right though in that this site is an absolute treasure trove particularly for photo collectors if you want to find early shoots of models like Eve Angel, Monika Vesela or Marketa Belonoha to name a few off the top of my head.

Denner's Review
I believe this site stopped updating in 2009. I was there in the back end of 2009 and the updates had already stopped and looking through the tour i don't see anything new from when i was there. I think they have removed the dates from the content to cover up the fact they are no longer updating so those poor quality 2011 vids you mention are probably a few years old. As a pic fan i quite enjoyed what i got from the site for what its worth but without updates i won't be going back.
