If a trial isn't an accurate representation of the site, then to me that site isn't worth joining, especially if it sends you on a wild goose chase through various portals and networks (which I always HATE).
At least finding this out only cost you a few dollars, though, and not a full membership.
Thank you for the great review! Really enjoyed that, and it kind of vindicates my thoughts on her site which I have always enjoyed, although obviously more so pre-2010 when Karla was still modelling for the site.
You're absolutely correct that updates are being rotated now. I still think it's a very good website, despite this, and much of this is down to Karla who is a real personality as well as being hot as hell.
I think she has fantastic boobs, proportionally they're pretty much perfect to me. Also like Anna Angel's. It's rare I like anything larger, although I have to say shape is the most important aspect in my opinion.
I agree that you should report this as a problem on TBP (there is a link on the right hand page of the TBP review. Websites change their policies all the time, and I imagine a lot of reviews are out of date almost as soon as they go up. It's up to members as well as TBP to make sure information is as up-to-date as possible to help everyone out.
I'm with Capn in that I can take it or leave it. I think if it's just part of a huge range of content on a website it's fine, but it's not something I would join for. I quite enjoyed one of Tia Ling's scenes for example, but not something I'd actively look for.
PS, none of the poll options really summed up my thoughts, so I didn't vote.
I hate the 'customer is always wrong' attitude that a lot of adult websites have, so really appreciate this heads-up. I've had the same problem on another website and suspect it was because my IP number changed. The webmaster DID reply, but only to basically say I had ripped content/shared the password which definitely was not the case.
I think weekly is the bare minimum to be 'frequent' - preferably at least a video and a gallery.
My expectations change depending on whether it's a solo amateur site or a larger site. If there's just one model then weekly is absolutely fine, but if there's not just a single model, then I don't really think weekly is particularly frequent.
Wow, this is good to know, and definitely a site to cross off my hit-list too. I hate that feeling of joining up to a site, logging in for the first time and realising you've made a massive mistake.
Yup, it's definitely good advice. I'm normally quite sceptical about trials anyway because it's very rare in my experience you can just rip everything, otherwise the webmaster would surely be doing themselves out of business.
Would be interested to know if omberman got in touch with the webmaster about this. It could just be a technical problem and hopefully they can tell that you didn't manage to download anything. If they fix it and compensate you by extending the trial, then I think that reflects positively on the site.
The way I understand omberman's comment is that he wasn't complaining about only being able to view three videos, but that the three he tried didn't work but still showed as having been viewed, meaning he didn't get to see anything - I might be wrong though.
Oh I definitely agree with that, I would class that as being in a similar vein to pop ups and pop overs/unders in that it does interfere with your enjoyment of the website.
A few, so long as it doesn't get in the way of member content (ie pop-ups/overs) and so long as they're relevant. I don't really like ads for fleshlights etc, but if they advertise similar websites to the one I'm a member of then I have no complaints at all.
Good to know - I remember Little Lupe's site used to be terrible in this respect where you would download a video only to find out it's totally different to what you expected.
I guess it's not such a problem if you download everything, but I'm quite picky with what I download so if everything is mis-labelled it's a big problem to me.
Thank you for the comments. Yes, it really is a fantastic site, it really captured my imagination and is clearly such a labour of love (in so many respects).
I almost felt guilty about even mentioning it 'just' being BJs as obviously the clue is in the name, but I definitely think there's even more mileage in the idea while still staying true to the unique selling point of just BJs. You know, have 75% of the videos being just BJs, and of the other 25% of the videos, make sure they at least have a long old blowjob but also throw something else into the mix too. There was a video called (I think...) sensual sex and the sex scene part of it was minimal but it was really sexy - would love to see more updates like this.
It's definitely one of my favourite sites I've joined for a while though, and I'll definitely be back.

Pros:
- Camille is a striking red head with an amazing body
- Really sensual, erotic performances - very sexy
- Very classy, catering for a the niche of artistic porn
- Good balance of photos and videos in different formats
- Everything is downloadable, galleries offered as ZIPs
- Simple, uncluttered navigation
- Great, detailed and erotic descriptions of each update
Cons:
- Videos are all zipped
- Photography style means sometimes detail is lost
- Videos are edited/cut and often a bit too short
- Not a huge fan of the dubbed music on videos
- Could perhaps explore more titjobs, sex scenes etc while still including BJs
Bottom Line:
I was really looking forward to joining this site and had really high expectations. Really happy to say I was really impressed and will definitely be rejoining.
The website makes a huge deal out of the fact it is trying to show the beautiful side of porn. I think this is a lot more credible when it's the same two people, in love, appearing in the updates, although obviously the by-product of this is that there wouldn't be as much variety as on some other websites, but for me it's never a problem unless the guy is really annoying or something.
TAOBJ is elegant in its simplicity with members landing on the main update page. All updates (video and photo) are shown as thumbnails with the update name, date and size (number of photos or length of video). At the time of writing there are 313 updates, and at the top of the page are links so you can skip to videos, photos, portraits, blog, friends or VOD.
For me videos are the main draw, and on the video page updates are again presented as thumbnails, dated with video length. Most videos are around 10 minutes long - a few are shorter, and a few are longer, but not many are over 15 minutes long. There are currently 167 videos.
The videos are beautifully shot. Camille is sensual and sexy. She has a real femme fatelle look about her with striking red hair, often rich red lipstick and very feminine curves. She is really womanly and incredibly sexy.
Her technique is really hot and the videos are very well shot. Depth of field features heavily, and often a filter is applied for artistic effect. The result is a beautiful video, but the criticism would be that some of the finer details are lost. Sometimes the lighting washes out some of the details such as cum on her face or her fantastic body. This isn't a huge criticism - the important bits are in crystal clarity, but sometimes you feel like you're missing out on certain details.
Unsurprisingly, the majority of videos are blowjobs. Camille really makes the blowjob sexy, and if you are a fan of BJs, you will be very well catered for. There are a few other niches in the mix - she does great tit jobs and there are some very tender sex scenes, but I must stress these are few and far between. Although the site is The Art of BLOWJOB, I must admit I was hoping for a bit more of a mix content-wise, even if the videos are still mainly about the blowjob, I think a few more titjobs, sex etc would be very welcome and wouldn't take away from the unique selling point of the site.
Videos all have the option to stream on the website (you can skip to any part while it loads), or download as MP4 (approx 300MB), WMV or AVI (approx 150MB) or watch on iPad, iPhone etc. All are downloadable, but annoyingly all are zipped despite being single files which adds another stage to downloading and means you have download, unzip and then rename if you want to. Another criticism is the musac that is dubbed over the videos which I'm not a fan of, even if artistically used.
Each update has a long description, laying on the sexy adjectives with words like sensual, gently caressing, erotic etc - I'm not into sex stories, but it's pretty hot and a step above the formulaic stuff you get (if at all).
Photo-wise it's the same with updates presented as thumbnails with a date and number of photos. Galleries range from 50-150ish photos and are downloadable as ZIPs. The photography is just wonderful, and although the photos are only 1024px on their longest side on the site, in the zips they're over 5000px and the quality is fantastic. Like the videos, you might feel some of the details through depth of field are lost. There's currently 112 galleries, many of which accompany a video.
Other sections include Portraits (33 galleries), which is for Camille's solo pics; Friends which are a few choice galleries from X Art; and VOD which is a link to the Adult Entertainment Broadcast Network. Finally there is a blog which seems regularly updated with a mix of content.
Clearly this site has grown and grown since the earlier comments and reviews here. It's a good amount of content for a solo site, and absolutely beautifully shot. If you enjoy softer porn it's hard to find fault with it.
Camille is a great performer, but the soft focus in parts and the majority of content being 'just' BJs might leave you wanting more rather than totally satisfying you. It would be nice to see a few more locations for sets, too - most are around her home, but a minority are outside (eg on the beach) - more like this would be AMAZING.
Every criticism is minor, though, and not only are the videos classy and refined, but so too is the website and of course Camille. Camille and Mike have gone to a lot of effort of showing porn in a positive, artistic light and their efforts are more than justified by such a great website.

Pros:
- Lori is a slim, tanned girl catering for most tastes
- Huge amount of content, generally very easy to navigate
- Caters well for BJs/handjobs, but also fetishes too
- All content is downloadable without apparent restriction
- ZIPs of photos available and 2 different video formats
- Lots of extra content such as camshows and messageboard
- Solo site but seems very professionally run
- Well-established site, and still updating
- Many shoots taking place outside adding to the excitement
Cons:
- Limited angles video-wise - normally POV or fixed view
- Lori and her husband are quite vocal and theatrical*
(* Only a con depending on your POV)
- Sometimes too much time spent looking at the guy
- Older updates have videos split into 3-or-so parts
- A lot of the photos are only video screengrabs
Bottom Line:
This is a huge solo amateur website for Lori Anderson. I think her blowjobs are probably the main draw, but there’s plenty of other content such as handjobs, hardcore and girl-girl action. She’s a very slim, slightly-older-than-average natural model with most videos filmed with her husband.
The member’s homepage is very graphical with a collage of Polaroid-style photos from her scenes with a list of categories down the side. It goes far beyond being just the usual ‘pictures’, ‘movies’, ‘camshows’ that you’d expect from a solo site and includes:
Updates: a simple page with a link to her latest update, her latest featured girl and the archives – unfortunately it’s not a chronological, dated list of updates.
Messageboard: A basic message board. Lori is always posting but not too much discussion going on. More active than some though.
My Bedroom: You can book camshow or phone sex sessions with Lori. Solo camshows range from $35 to $90, guy and girl from $75 to $150.
Free Shows: Link to Lori’s Camz Shows page with a timetable of forthcoming shows. At the moment she’s in Florida so none forthcoming but will update this review if that changes.
There’s also links to Member’s Store (an online pharmacy?!), Free Live Feeds (links to Camz Shows), Featured Girls (links and preview content from other sites including Kelly Madison, Club Sandy, Bryci etc), Canadian Girls (18 galleries from Canadian Girls), My Store (downloadable amateur videos featuring Lori for around $25), Bonus Content (another link to Camz Girls), Submit Your Pics (member submitted pictures including... um... how can I put this... member’s ‘members’!)
At the top of all the pages is a drop down menu bar where you can filter by content type (videos or photos) and then by niche (blowjobs, handjobs etc). It makes finding the niches you like pretty easy.
Each category shows updates as 16 thumbnails per page, and the title of the update. Click on the thumbnail, and you get a very comprehensive description of the update and various options listed at the bottom for downloading. On newer updates this is a Flash Video, or a Windows Media Player file in either 640x480 or 320x240. On older updates the videos are split into three-or-so parts. It doesn’t give file sizes or running times. You can save everything, most videos are around 10-15 minutes and the quality isn’t bad. Videos are normally from a fixed position or POV.
Photo-wise it’s disappointing in some respects as most pictures are just screenshots from her video updates. But you can use this to your advantage and use the galleries as a storyboard for the video updates so you can see in detail whether you wish to download the video. The photo/video galleries are linked, so there is a button to skip from photos to videos (or vice versa) at the top of each page.
There are proper photos of her softer updates though (flashing on beaches etc); in this case the images are 1440px on their longest side. In all galleries, you can change the thumbnail sizes and download ZIPs.
Update-wise it seems fair in the amount of updates. It seems to be around once a week, although I can’t say how consistent updates are because none are dated. There is a massive amount of content to be enjoyed, though, and I can imagine as a first-time member her site will definitely keep you occupied throughout your whole membership term.
Most updates are blowjobs and handjobs, but there’s also a lot of hardcore scenes. Lori is quite theatrical in her delivery and her husband is quite vocal too, so that’s definitely worth bearing in mind. Most seem to take place at home, but a refreshing amount outside, whether on boats or in a garden etc. I must admit I do enjoy the feeling of jeopardy with hardcore being done outside so this is great to see.
The fetish section is large. Her fetishes include peeing, bound and gagged, footjobs and more besides. There’s also a trend (not only in fetishes) to show off her hairier than average forearms. I don’t see the appeal, and I’m not sure I’ve ever met anyone who does, but if it is, you’re well catered for.
One complaint is there’s a bit too much man-time on her site. In some updates for example, her husband will often be reclined back, he’s cum, but it’d go over his stomach, then there’d be long and lingering shots of his dick and the mess. There are quite a few examples of this scattered throughout the website, too, and it just seemed a bit odd in those minority of examples. I can imagine it’s an easy mistake for webmasters to make, but it kinda ruined some of the updates.
Overall Lori’s site is very impressive. There is a lot of content to enjoy with the option to enjoy a lot more Lori through things like camshows. Definitely worth joining if you like the look of the previews.
Chica's Place for example were excellent in sorting out a logging-in problem that I had. I always keep her site near the top of my rejoining list because they really look after members.
Another website I joined was the opposite, I was accused of sharing my password and was blacklisted. Those are the only two websites I've had any interaction with technical support wise I think.
Not as regularly as I'd like, to be honest, and half of the websites I find seem to be no longer updating any more.
I think once you discover one new model, you soon discover lots more out of the usual 'circle' of models, so I go through periods of not finding any to finding LOTS within a day-or-two.
