Review of Fiona Luv:
Intro:

I really like the way teen content has been upmarketed in recent years. Before Larry Flynt got involved and established not only the marketability, but the acceptability of the niche, I expect fans of not-so-innocent adolescents probably had less to "work with." Though it's not really clear from the Fionaluv.com homepage, a membership entitles you to the full range of models at FTV, an acronym for First Time Video, in case you're unacquainted with this nicely branded and highly professional institution. Clearly, this isn't playing up the filthy or immoral reputation that probably did a lot to launch the genre back in the day of Tracy Lords. This is single model spreads with high production values, above all celebrating youthful beauty and sexuality, even when challenging its limits with big toys, vegetables, gynecological tools, popsicles and the like.

What you get for your $25:

I've been around the bend trying to figure out what the difference between the $24.99 package you get through fionaluv.com and the $29.99 membership offered through firsttimevideo.com. Fiona's definitely one of the spunkier models of the bunch featured, but then again there are a lot of young, beautiful creatures on display at First Time Video. There's probably been a bit of a hassle for the husband wife duo who run the show here, as their nicely branded acronym, FTV, takes you to Fashion Television when you try for the easy link to the main site via www.ftv.com. Believe me, this is far more interesting than reading about what Nicole Kidman's been wearing. In any case, apart from the $5, I can't see any advantage to signing on through www.firsttimevideo.com. It's harder to type and doesn't seem to entail any more content.

Reading the promotional material—something probably only reviewers do—I find that, beyond there being a "woman's touch" behind the scenes, the site aims to maintain a nice balance between hardcore and "glamour" elements. This is nicely indicated by the color coding system that lets members know just how hot recent updates are. Basically, the material ranges from fairly softcore nude shots with hardly a patch of pink to the raunchier end of masturbation videos. Color coding allows you to move slowly from the green to the red, or steer clear of the too-naughty or too-nice, depending on your tastes. The speculum makes more than several appearances and the videographer generally seems to encourage models to put anything and everything "up there." There's too much content to speak with authority on the full range of scenarios, but having seen a fair bit, I think it fair to say that there's not a particular emphasis on anal play. This shouldn't be perceived as a complaint, however, as this ranks as the best showcase of teen single-model masturbation flics I've seen, and keeping with current trends there's even a smattering of girl-girl scenarios to mix it up a bit.

All in all, you're looking at a total library 49 "photo girls" and 95(!) "Video Girls". The so-called photo girls simply seem not to have done any film work, whereas all of the video girls have photo galleries. In short, there's a ton to look at, and the quality is really outstanding, particularly in the more recent updates. Each model seems to have between 2 and 8 photo spreads on offer, each containing between 12 to 60+ photos, from what I saw. More recent photo spreads include the great gift of downloadable zip files. Connoisseurs of photography—and it's really beautifully done here—know what an important feature that is. Wading one-by-one through numerous galleries is tedious work, and sites that feature neither slide-shows nor downloadable galleries have the air of stinginess about them. Here, there's enough content that they can be generous, allowing members to bounce all they want to their hard drives for future consumption.

Just a note on the tech specs: photos come in at 700X1052 or thereabouts. Galleries aren't overly large, as noted above, but the quality of former commercial fashion photographer, Hooman's work gives the impression every photo belongs in the series. Leution, the videographer, deserves kudos as well. Setting a comfortable tone for young women to masturbate is obviously a talent that he possesses in spades. The films come in at about 7 meg per minute, and many of the earlier flics are only about 1 min per segment. As the site has evolved, so too has the technology, thankfully. High speed internet users will be pleased to find that the segments have only become longer with time. Many segments now are around 7-10 minutes, and each (in a choice of DivX .avi or .wmv formats) has a nice series of thumbnails and model commentary to accompany it. Check out the FTV Challenge page for the top shelf of the site's masturbation flics. To my great pleasure I found more than a few genuine orgasms archived there.

A few tasty morsels are to be found in the bonus section, but there's not a lot of nonsense and not a lot of advertising at fionaluv/firsttimevideo, so the real meat of this site is the huge stash of nicely presented and easily navigated original content. Do check out the Supersized library however, as the 1200X1800 and 2000X3000 images are really a thing to behold on a large monitor.

The Short and Sweet of It:

There are a lot of sites featuring teens or so-called "first timers" having a wank for the camera. The genre itself isn't groundbreaking, and from what I've seen the quality of the performance and the technical merits of the sites vary a lot. Without hesitation, I can say that this one clearly sets a standard that's going to be hard to match. Logging on through Fionaluv.com you'll find a very svelte 18 year old for whom there's a fair bit of content. Don't be deceived, though. Linking to the galleries of all Fiona's "friends" at firsttimevideo.com, you'll find there are more yummy young things than you can shake a stick at. They're not all great at masturbating on demand, but even when they're not, the always sexy movement between softer "glamour" spreads and harder "what-else-can-you-put-in-there?" masturbation moments, keeps things fresh and lively. Outstanding production values and a very refined attention to beauty makes this site an all around winner. For fans of single model, teen, and masturbation content, this should be a sacred institution. More than 25,000 members can't be wrong. If you are already a member of ftvgirls.com this site is just a portal for it, if not then this buy is highly recommended.
