Girl Folio – Where Beautiful Women Reveal Themselves Naturally

The Girl Folio tour lets us peal back the cover just enough to get an idea of what it is they offer, and that is very high quality and tasteful erotica. Though I spotted a few porn stars in the previews (Carmel Moore), they are treated in an erotica nature, and the material showcased all shared a stunning and natural use of light, and models looked absolutely incredible in everything from schoolgirl costumes, to a damp towel wrapped around their considerable cleavage (they just stepped out of the shower). Will Girlfolio stand apart from the other erotica sites out there? Read on and find out.

The Site

After I logged into Girlfolio I went right back to where I was: it turns out the tour and the members area are identical with one important detail: the members area version lets you view the galleries and movies! The site breaks down into just a few main sections.

The Updates page shows you the next set to be added, and lets you go back through what has been uploaded since 2008 and before. It uses a calendar-type layout with thumbnails for each gallery. Clicking the thumbnail takes you to a page that is dedicated entirely to that gallery. Click on pictures to view them at full size. There is a zip file download on the calendar-listing page if you want to grab them all at once and save them.

Models is an index of all the girls who have posed on the site (you can find all their scenes through this page). Movies is a page that lists the scenes they've shot, divided into two sections: HD and Movie Out-Takes. The many layers of organization and categories make it pretty easy to surf for content.

The Content

Girlfolio.com sticks to solo girls doing it on their own. Michael White, the photographer, is pretty creative with them though. There are galleries that follow the beautiful girls from the shower, to their getting read in the nude, to slowly dressing and having breakfast and heading out the door. Others will feature girls posing and strip teasing from sexy costumes. I think a lot of how a set plays out and its energy comes from the models. In the first example, it featured a beautiful, pale-bodied beauty named Jaye, who seems sweet though deeply sensual. The second stars Lady Badcock, who is a pretty rambunctious and outgoing model to say the least.

One thing I thought unified the models White works with is that they almost always have large C or D cup breasts and are almost always natural. Apart from being drop-dead gorgeous, I mean.

The HD videos can be saved in Windows Media and MP4 files that have a true high def quality playback and a huge 720p HD 1280 x 720 resolution -- they look fantastic. You also have streaming Flash to play movies online and other formats and file sizes to pick from (mostly MP4 files, though). Running times are generally brief (4-5 minutes). The picture galleries are large and the images in them are too. Most can be viewed at a 4256 x 2832 pixel resolution and they are perfect to the pixel.

Final Thoughts

Girlfolio definitely does stand out from other erotica sites. This one doesn't seem as contrived or mechanical, something we can no doubt thank White for. He knows how to make the gallery and the settings he uses fit the model, and the results are really spectacular. That and his eye for choose perfect girls makes his site one of the best in the niche, if not one of the largest, and with regular updates that won't be the case forever. I really liked the site and its girls and would recommend it to any surfer that enjoys good erotica.
